He looks like he could probably play at a low level D1 school pretty good, and even parlay some backup minutes for us down the road. I know everyone looks good against APB, so maybe I'm a little off on this one.
I have to laugh when fans react to Sam Martin with " Oh look, the walk on just made a shot". Sam Martin started on St. Xavier's varsity his freshman year (unheard of). He is the son of a coach,has excellent 3 point shot,and excellent free throw shooter trapped in a smaller vertically challenged frame (the antithesis of a prototypical UC basketball player). Having said that he could get some serious minutes in the MAC and any Division II team. He could be inserted into a game for a given scenario ( need free throw or another 3 point threat ) on this team and get the job done IMO.
I bet mick considers him a big guy.
We have seen this play out for years. Mick's guys look great against North East Central State Teachers and Normal College but when they play Xavier or Nevada they get beatdown.
