Is Rodney McGruder our best player?

I'm really starting to think he is.  He may be our only NBA caliber player.

He might be, but he is an a role that facilitates good numbers.  It is a lot like Jake last year.  He is good though. 
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Dude's just a sophomore and it's not like he played many minutes last year.  By his senior year, his 3pt shooting ability may get him a spot in the D-League or something.

He's played more minutes than anyone else this year.  I agree that he needs to be more assertive on the offensive end.  I get the feeling that he doesn't quite feel like he's The Man just yet so he holds back.  But the numbers say he is.

If he finds the ability to be able to create his own shots then yes, he will have a shot in the NBA if not, then nope.

Maybe.  I sometimes think of Cartier when I watch him.

Agree.  Haven't seen that yet.

Dude's much better than last year.  Not saying he'll ever be a lottery pick but I could see him getting a UDFA look in 2013.  Regardless, he's going to be a very nice player for the Cats when it's all said and done, and that's really all I give a eff about.

Love Rodney and all, but don't you have to be able to dribble to play in the nba?
it’s not like I’m tired of WINNING, but dude, let me catch my breath.
