    2: STUDHORSE
    broadly : a male animal kept for breeding

    3a: a young man : GUY
    especially : one who is virile and promiscuous
    b: a tough person
    c: HUNK sense 2

    According to The Free Dictionary:
    Stud
    1.
    a. A group of animals, especially horses, kept for breeding.
    b. A male animal, such as a stallion, that is kept for breeding.
    c. A stable or farm where these animals are kept.
    2. Slang
    a. A usually young man who is very sexually active or promiscuous.
    b. A usually young man regarded as attractive and physically fit.

    I cringe every time a grown man refers to a college athlete as a "stud". This board is filled with these references and I am sure there is a better way to identify a talented student athlete.
    So it’s not short for stud-ent athlete?

    Nuts I can't tell if you are serious or not but if you are serious your concern would hold a little more weight if maybe you didn't have Quagmire as your avatar.

    I cant believe that I just typed that.......

    He's that good.

    Expect he is going to explode in a game soon for a triple/double

    uhhh what? He's an incredible college player, but I think he's got more in line with Blueitt, in that it will be tougher to translate to next level. He doesn't have explosive athleticism or anything. He probably needs more muscle and a more reliable outside shot to be a solid 3-and-D guy at the next level.

    I think he definitely can play at the next level someday, but I don't think he's that athletically-gifted that it's a possibility next year. He's a very high IQ player, though, which makes it easier to stand out at the college level.

    Colby is more athletic than Blueitt and does some things better than Bluiett (like rebounding). Blueitt had better skills at some things (like shooting). But since the NBA values athleticism, Colby may be the better prospect.

    Scouts love Colby…. He will be drafted. If he made transition to point guard he would be a first round pick.

    He’s probably too short to be a 3 and d guy at the nba level… those guys are legitimately 6’7 to 6’9 and Jones is probably 6’5. He is pretty athletic at the college level, way more than Bluiett. If he can develop a reliable shot and play the two, I think he could get drafted. People on here have compared him to josh hart and I think that’s a very fair comparison in terms of height, athletic ability and where his ceiling is, but hart was a career 39% 3pt shooter. I hope Colby can get to that level.

    I don’t see him being able to play the 1 at the next level.
