Bulldog Backer with an informative post...

"Gordon: 17.2 P, 6.6 R, 4.9 A"

But, but, but, I read on here that he was a ball hog.

If someone can't look at those numbers and see that he is at least comparable to the top college point guards and that he meant a lot to this team and we'll miss him a lot when he's gone then that person is in willfull denial.

You forgot the 4.1 turnovers, 1.1 steals & .6 blocks per game.

The Bad one is the 4.1 turnovers, kind of cancels out his 4.9 assists doesn't it?

He will be missed when he is gone, but I think he comes back next year.

</p>I agree he is a good point guard at the college level, and if he played at most other schools he would not have been a point guard but a small forward.
Why? Just like you said , his 4.1 turnovers per game and an inconsistent outside shot....
He has played out of position at MSU and is a tweener.

We know. You tell us about 30 times every day. Please stop.

Show me where he was an AP All-American.

Okay, my mistake. Instead of "AP All-American" I should have said "consensus All-SEC pick". Forgive me.

You are correct he was all SEC... As a G-F, not a point guard ,or is he a point forward.(Must be a new position)
FYI.. I really do hope Jamont comes back instead of heading to Europe to play basketball.
Without him we will be lucky to even make the NIT...

Obviously you've never heard of Magic Johnson.</p>

 

[KurtRambis4]

this is unreal</p>

 

[Cains Major]

more than I can say for some of the BS comments that spewed from some of the subsequent post.

What if JG happents to come back? I say move him to a shooting guard, back up PG.

 

[Scarface10]

He says Barry is an excellent defensive player and eventually can be on par with Timmy Bowers.

Um, yeah, I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with that analysis by the coaches and/or Shane Power. If he is an excellent defensive player, he found an excellent way to hide it throughout the season. If we have to rely much on Barry Stewart next year, then we are going to be in a lot of trouble.

Other than that, it looked like a lot of good information.

 

[Cains Major]

Just overall a good analysis. The way this thing works, we don't really who will actually be in school next year, and it will be about Eight months before we will play again.
