I’m wishing that young man nothing but the best.

THANK YOU Darius for your efforts. I really believe there's a better fit for him out there.

[Bird Friend]

Agree. He was our only true scoring threat for much of this year. Kid has hops, not afraid to go into the trees to get a shot. Needs to work on his 3 to help make a more effective scorer at all levels. Also needs to work on not letting the ball stick in his hands.

Best of luck, Darius.

lol too funny

 

[Manchester Matt]

Appreciate the effort, Darius! Hope he finds a quality for his final season.

Give me Shadrach, and Meshach on the perimeter and Abednego in the paint. They’re fire tested.

 

[Moreorless]

I think Daniel should qualify for the wing he’s fire tested also. Y’all cracking me up

You would come up with a damn, I mean, darn good quip.

And Darius was NOT one of my selections to leave. Hmmm, guess I gotta b patient
I wish DB the Best and Thanks for carrying the load in many stretches of games.

 

[BirdGrad2011]

Best wishes to DB. Offense was better without him when he was injured this year. He was deadly when he got to his spot, but he just didn’t fit when he was 0 three pt threat and the paint is clogged with Foster or Walker.

So do we want more shooters or not? That seems to be the consensus on the board, and DB was not that. He could get a bucket, but he’s just not a good shooter at all.

We need shooters, Pedon says so. If we can't get shooters I'd take a scorer (Burford I'd say). Kinda hate to see him go, but you know, the portal giveth, the portal taketh away. Let's see what we get . . . .

 

[redbirdron1]

But he could Score when the rest of the team couldn’t get their shots. Dribble drive pull ups are a Great Skill. Just think if Banks could develop that ……..

 

[GOP_Redbird]

DB always had good flashes. Probably best both parties parted ways. 20% from 3 last year isn’t going to cut it in this day and age of basketball.

 

[Baltimore Bird]

That is 2. Hoping for at least 2-4 more from a group of Kasubke, Davis, Lieb and Banks.

I cont believe 4 more will leave. That’s kinda pushing to me. 2 maybe. Time will tell

 

[Redbirdfan06]

Go get a point guard with some size that can shoot from 3 at a decent clip and make free throws.
