ASU Basketball 2019/2020

[Mainstreet]

ASU gets a commitment from Marcus Bagley.

Let's keep the Joe Caldwell tradition going.

Bagley, the No. 48 overall prospect in the 247Sports rankings, visited ASU in April. As Marvin Bagley III's younger brother, he is also the grandson of legendary ASU player Joe Caldwell.

Had stuck this in the Recruiting thread - which is pretty much 100% football... Thx for creating this thread!

Great news!

The good thing about Marcus is he's not a 1 and done level player so he can stay and develop. I always thought he had a bit of a weird body for basketball he's a little undersized for a 4 and not athletic enough for a 3. At the NBA level he's a tweener, in college I think he'll be pretty good. He's a better shooter than his older brother although it's a bit of a set shot but not as tall, not as long and not as athletic. Just always seemed like he was heavy in the lower half of his body, much different build than Marvin but still a good player.

So he’s like Blake Griffith’s brother.

I think he'll be a pretty good college player but I don't see him as an NBA prospect. To be fair he hasn't really been healthy the last year plus he had back and leg injuries last year so he was never really in ideal shape.

Guard U gets started Friday night at 8:30 on ESPN2. Game is in China against Colorado.

I'm not finding much media attention given to the ASU versus Colorado game tonight.

In an exhibition game the Sun Devils beat Peking University on Wednesday W, 113-64.

Arizona State forwards Romello White and Taeshon Cherry will not play vs Colorado tonight. Violation of team rules.

Buffaloes beat short handed Sun Devils 81-71. It does not count as a in conference game.

Guards Remy Martin (23) and Rob Edwards (20) led the team in scoring although they had 9 turnovers between them.

Martin did have 9 rebounds, 8 assists and 5 steals as well.

I was happy with what I saw from Guard U. They kept fighting back, but were short handed up front. Hopefully Hurley can get that nonsense taken care of here, and this won't be a continuing issue. Colorado is as tough as a team we'll play in the Pac12 besides probably Oregon.

This really hurt them.

Cherry is a simple-minded, thug-type fool. I’m surprised Hurley lets him continue to hang around.
Surprised Romelo got trapped into taking part in whatever shenanigans Cherry pulled him into...

 

[CardLogic]

Don't know when the infraction occurred, but if it was prior to leaving AZ for the trip, Hurley should have left their asses in Tempe!

Do we know the infraction?

Haven't heard any details...

In a tournament rematch game, Guard U up 11 over St John's with 4 minutes left.

Good win.

Great win over a name basketball school.

Excellent, what a weekend for ASU

I can't keep up. I'm entitled to a life.

I just got an update on my phone Guard U is playing again here shortly. I'll have to record this one, still struggling to get up and going from last night's Tempe fun.

Good game but tough loss. ASU looked good until the very end and couldn't close it out.

Aside from White, who himself is only 6'8", the Devils have absolutely zero presence in the paint. Additionally, they remain a sub-par shooting team. In particular, it sucks that both Edwards and Cherry get so much playing time as they are both so inconsistent. Cherry is also extremely undisciplined and flat-out lazy.
I really don't see this team doing much this year. Gotta hope Hurley is able to put together a stellar recruiting class for the 2020-2021 season...

Devils hit 3 with 3.2 seconds left to beat Princeton 67-65.
