This past Monday on the coaches show Jones talked about Porter and he said Porter is a tremendous rebounder and shot blocker. Alexander asked Jones if he could see Porter and Stith together on the floor. Unfortunately my radio went out about that time but i think he said that Stith needs to work on his footwork on defense if he is to play the 4 but he could see it happening. Maybe someone who heard it better could clarify. Static hit my radio about that time. You could hear a lot of excitement in Jones voice talking about Porter.

He also said BJ Stith plays big for a guard and has more range on his jumper than anyone currently on the team.

JJ said it was unlikely that Stith and Porter would play together in CUSA play as there are too many small line-ups and dangerous stretch-4s and neither player is a chase and close defender.

Any word on Colbert? I hope he is not another Nick Wright

I hear Colbert is a Keon Carter type with a nice perimeter touch but not a real post banger like Stith or Porter.
