I get the D3 stigma but he's a baller. I'd love to land him. He may have to come off the bench. That could be the issue. I'd say David, Armoni and Shawndale are the clear-cut starters at guard. But, I think he'd still get heavy minutes in the rotation.
I know we only got a very brief showing this Spring, but I really, really think Joe needs a more ready-to-play 4th guard for this upcoming season. I like Radford at Guard-5 this season but maybe not Guard-4 just yet. Polce and Rhodes need a full season of development. Radford seems ready on the offensive end. He was a bit too much of a hack on the defensive end.
But, again, how much will those young guys really play once Shawndale is back and David isn't sitting out half of games. The way Joe subs in-season ... they won't play much next year. But, if there is a prolonged injury, I think it's imperative they add an upperclassmen guard. The way the starting three guards all create and drive, adding that long-range bomber could be huge.
