i can understand some hate. he would be incredibly frustrating to play against. Didn't seem like they were knocking his ability so much.

They were comparing him unfavorably to Elijah freaking Johnson, so, yeah, I'd say they were knocking his ability quite a bit. Elijah Johnson? LOL.

It has to be asked.   Are Bob Strawn/tmcats and Sayers the same person?

To be fair if you are a fan of an opposing team he is really annoying to play against.  He is a very talented pest.  He does so many things so well and then he just bird dogs the other PG all over the court.  Very annoying.

Absolutely.  I'd probably be very annoyed of Angel if we had to play against a player like him two times a year.  It's just jealousy.  But he's ours, and I love him dearly.

This. Name a small "in-your-face" player from ANY other team that you've been a fan of over the years. I can't.

Maybe Cookie Belcher...but then again I just really like cookies and he wasnt really that small.

See I can step back and say a guy like Smart, Burks @CU, or Jackson @BU are good players.  I don't just blindly hate them because of latent racism and school pride.

Smart is an elite bballer, but a pretty mediocre PG, fwiw. 8.1 assists to 5.8 turnovers isn't very elite.

Yes, he is a baller without a conventional position - I think he would be great at the next level playing alongside another big, physical guard that is a shooter like a GRCOAT legend OJ Mayo.

He's a stud. Everything Fred Peete wanted to be and more.

If Angel were playing point for OSU, Smart would be scoring about 10 more points per game, fwiw.

Smart is a stud, though. I agree.

I like Angel a lot but he's a scrubby overachiever like spradling with a low ceiling. 

Best PG's:

1) Smart
2) Jackson
tie: Tharpe, Angel, Kabongo

KU doesn't start a PG but Tharpe has more talent than Angel and not quite as much as Kabongo.  Angel has the most experience though at this point and they are all sophomores.  too close to call on those 3.

Which part don't you like? His assist rate? Assist to TO ratio? Steals? Ability to score?

I don't look at his numbers and see overachiever, he's just a pretty damn good player.

Angel's A/T ratio is out of this world good, and he is capable of creating offense with the ball as well. He's really amazing. He's the best PG K-State has ever had, and he's only going to get better.

Tharpe is garbage. Have you seen him try to finish at the rim?   :lol:

I like how you have Jackson at 2.  Its clear you don't watch much ball, because you would have seen Angle abuse everyone BU put on him Saturday.  I mean absolutely abuse everyone.
