Guys! He is an avid hunter. :love:
Hot damn!  Give him a bounty for every Manhattan squirrel he can kill. I hate those little rodents, crapping on my car when in the Mecca.  We can sell them to KUers as gormet chicken.

Put him on the potential PG transfer list.

He's not a PG chief.  Not even a little in an extreme emergency.  Couldn't shoot from three and couldn't finish at the rim on the rare occasions he could get there.  Zero displayed ability to distribute.  He was surprisingly bad.  Not surprising in the least he got franked.  Midseason though is something. 
My prescience is fully engorged.  It throbs with righteous accuracy.  I am sated.

I'm not really going to critique a guy with a UConn offer at this point when I see what's on our roster.

With 3 letters of commitment and a strong VC, we are at our limits for next year recruits.  Now making all of these offers really has to send negative messages to current players.  No wonder they play like don't care sometimes.

Strengths:
Stokes is a true point guard that is ultra quick with matching speed. He pushes the ball with pace and can hit open shots with ramge to the arc. He is run the halfcourt offense and can make plays at end of clock situations. He can drive, draw and kick or drop off passes to open teammates. Stokes also applies excellent ball pressure. He is tough and competes on both ends and also has some leadership ability to go along with his passion to play.

Weaknesses:
Adding strength is key for stoles along with being a consistent leader and producer all in which he is more than capable.

Bottom Line:
Stokes is a true point guard that is a high major minus and is no lower than mid major plus. His speed, quickness and ability to make shots as needed make him a extremely attractive player that possesses tremendous upside for his position.

Stokes, who committed on Saturday, is a 2015 point guard from Fork Union (VA), by way of Baltimore. A former Toledo commit, the three-star was garnering attention from Virginia Tech, UAB, William & Mary, Butler, Clemson and others. The school who invested a large sum of time into him was Kansas State. With Baltimore being a hotbed of talent that the Wildcats frequently target, it made sense that Stokes would be highly regarded with their need for a point guard.

The three-star floor general - who is quick, boasts a high IQ and knows how to run an offense - is a perfect fit in most spots. For what Kansas State needed, he will fit in very well. He committed to Kansas State and joins Claws, The Flush and xWhomper in the 2015 class, while Eric Cobb remains committed but unsigned.

How many are we Brucing?  Sounds like we have a ton of offers out there and now another commit.  I hope we don't keep Jevon and cut Nigel.

 Think Cobb is going to be a post grade, he was scheduled for visit against KU and was a no show.

With Nigel's new found aggressiveness, I would like him to play more 2. But he has the ability to play the backup point guard. I could see Tre getting pushed out. He is a defensive liability, I think we kind of have a long jam at the 2. Marcus, Edwards, Nigel and Barry. Puts a priority on wings in next years class.

The guy that really needs to go is Bolden, but it would be tough to do that to him. If he could graduate early and transfer to a small D1 or could land at a lower level school in the Carolinas near home, that would be the only way.

I would NOT wear a KSU shirt in the greater Toledo area for a while, those guys have to be pissed.
