'The whole thing is chaos': The art of the March Madness buzzer-beater
How does a buzzer-beater come to be? A little strategy, a lot of luck, and the right player at the right time.

Indeed it’s so much talent in Baltimore and dc that this job, should be the best coaching job in America, But whoever is in charge have to nail this hirer and Duane Simpkins is the most safe and logical choice, he’s a Maryland guy he has experience in coaching and recruiting in this area and I’m sure Gary Williams will endorse him too the powers to be at Maryland

Interesting portal entry...especially considering he's doing it after the worst game of his career on the biggest stage.
Even if Jase comes back, he would still be a starter next year, the 2 & 3 positions are essentially interchangeable in Izzo's system, and we don't have an experienced 3 who can score anyway.
My guess is, he wants to play only PG which would be his "NBA position." Realistically he'll likely never play in the NBA, but if he is to do so, he needs to showcase that he's a capable PG. He's shown he can run point, that's what he played in HS, but he's more of a scoring PG, and lacks the vision of a true PG, his passing ability isn't quite crisp enough to be a PG. He made lots of risky passes throughout the year, half-court lobs and stuff in transition that were very low percentage of coverting. His lay-up package and finishing ability are both fairly average too. Streaky shooter who can shoot 40%+ from 3. Can likely give you 14/5/3.5 as a starter next year.
He'll be missed and best of luck to him, def a dog player who will give it his all.

Tis the season. MSU had two guys jump in the portal too. Booker I expected, he was getting like 6 mpg, and he needs to find a place that will like him fukk up and it won't matter. I don't think there's a program in the country that can turn his motor around, but for his future, I hope he's able to find it.
