This^^^^^^. He was the first guy to hit 11 3 pointers in a NBA game.

Here are Scott’s college stats


https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/pla...ott-1.html

He avg 15 a game as a freshman. Shot 47% from 3. To compare
Ashton to him may be the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen in my 74 years. Good God smh

What is wrong with you man? I never said he was Dennis Scott. Obviously he's not. But if he's anything he's a catch & shoot player (& I mentioned Scott because he was the std for that type of player & about the best as a catch & shoot guy & not much more - yet he had a great career. So if Ashton can develop that skill he can likely be valuable as a catch & shoot guy. It's as simple as that. But for you morons that can't read, Ashton is obviously not Dennis Scott at this point & likely won't ever be, but that's his game & his only real chance to make it. And I wish him well.

There’s nothing wrong with me. I’m not the one on here comparing a high 3/low 4 star to a top 5 player. There’s is nothing to compare between Ashton and Dennis Scott. NOTHING. Once again this is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen on here and that’s saying a lot with NASCAR and Keeper posting non stop nonsense

Other than your reading comprehension..... There was no comparison. Simply stating that if Ashton wants to have success it will have to be along the lines of Dennis Scott as a catch & shoot player since Ashton doesn't seem to have the quickness to have a balanced game. Ashton's only chance at success is as a catch & shoot player - and that is where Dennis Scott had success (and BTW, RATINGS MEAN NOTHING). Where did I say he could compare to Dennis Scott in his ability? Do a little critical thinking if you're capable of it.

The players seemed to like Ashton. I watched frequently at timeouts he would be the first on the court to congratulate a teammate on a play. And he got a lot of smiles back in return.

I suspect it was a mutual decision with Penny and Ashton based upon Ashton needing development to get the minutes he wants, and Penny realizing the pressure that you guys are putting on his kids.

Many coaches have observed over the years that coaches' kids need to either be the best on the team or the worst. Anything else and there's just going to be constant complaining about their PT.

There's not a coach in the country that would tell his son to transfer out due to fan pressure from a message board. If that's the case he shouldn't be a coach.

Many arguments I saw during the season indicated that we should play with a 7-8 man rotation. South Carolina just won a national championship with 9-10 person rotation and tough defense.

Purdue - 7 men rotation
UConn - 8 men rotation

Point to the post where anyone said or implied that he was transferring because of fans on a message board.

Nice straw man.

good grief....He just wants more playing time...so he can become a real 'Assassin' under game pressure.

Not talking about the message board only, lol. There has been a lot of local heat - to the point that the last few press conferences, media members asked about PT for Jayden and Ashton.

Teams have won championships with all numbers of rotations. Just depends on which horses you have and how fast you play. Smaller rotation is certainly going to be more vulnerable to injury and need to play slower.

Lmao no chance he’s like Dennis Scott

Why not?

Ashton might be the softest player we've ever had. Can't have a 6-8 guy just hang out at the 3 pt line waiting for a dish.

That's why I used Dennis Scott as an example. As I recall, Scott was a great perimeter catch & shoot guy but he was relatively slow & didn't provide much else - yet he had a relatively successful college & pro career simply because he was such a great perimeter shooter. I'm not suggesting Ashton is or can ever be a consistent perimeter shooter but I see that as likely his only chance for any success because he too is slow & as you say, soft. And I wish him well, hope he becomes that great catch & shoot guy.

You’re arguing with a doorknob. He has no clue what Dennis Scott was. He was a catch and shoot guy as a pro but he was way more than that at GT

Really, living in ATL, I saw Scott play live many times - he was a catch and shoot guy at GT & a very good one. But I see you still can't think critically about posts. I don't see 46's post as "argument" but rather an observation of Ashton being soft - an observation with which I agree. But you're MO is not to provide any substance, you'd rather be a keyboard bully & just snipe at others' posts - adding no value at all. At least you are consistently predictable.

I wonder when the results of the academic misconduct investigation will be revealed.
