Draft Status

Postby mistabeecee41 » Fri Mar 28, 2008 9:22 pm

After his third straight terrific game here in the tournament, it’s pretty obvious that we need to give Josh Duncan a thorough look this week…We were urged to after the first game already by our good friend David Thorpe, and did not take his advice, and then got another nudge from his former teammate Brian Thornton via email…Needless to say, Duncan has been extremely impressive with his offensive versatility. We were just notified today that he has been invited to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament starting April 9th, and has indeed accepted his invite, along with fellow Xavier teammates Stanley Burrell and Drew Lavender.

That's strange! They have Josh listed as a 6'5" guard.
Fathers James Hoff and Michael Graham, AD Mike Bobinski, and Head Coaches Staak, Gillen, Prosser, Matta, Miller, & Mack represent a Golden Era of Xavier Men's Basketball. AD Christopher and Head Coach Steele will bring us to an even higher level!

I never would have given Josh much consideration but his play the last half of the season has been impressive.I heard someone comapre him to Robert Horry.And who among us thought Aaron Williams would make it in the NBA.Josh is big enough and can shoot from the outside.He's got a chance.

i would think he could be on someone's bench. i would like to see the cavs pick him up. they could definitely use a 4 who can shoot threes and stretch the d for lebron...who couldn't use a big man like that? he would be a much better fit on offense for them than big ben, and i would take him any day over dwayne jones.
