Going into today's game against Pitt Gill has started 1 of their 6 games. He is averaging 13 plus minutes per game scoring 4.7 and just 2 rebounds per game. The most interesting stat is that he has taken 15 shots and not one of them was a 3 pointer. He played about 1.5 minutes in the 2nd half tonight and he didn't score in the 1st half if he even got into the game. I thought he'd be doing a little better but it's still early.

We saw Gill for 3 years. Why would anyone be surprised that he's not very good?

I think he has talent. I just don't think Ferry used him the right way. On an ACC team his talent might have translated into more minutes and a bigger role if he'd had better coaching the first three years.

PS Blackman looks like a total bust right now.

After seeing the grad transfer rule for a while, I think guys who transfer up are making a mistake. I've seen very few of these guys who were good players at a lower level, make much of an impact at higher level schools. I think it makes much more sense when a guy who has been buried at a higher level school, transfers down. A guy who is buried on the bench at Michigan St. is much more likely to make a difference at Duquesne, than some kid at Duquesne is going to make at Michigan St.
