    I recently saw some youtube videos of him and was surprised that he has such a good shot from outside. I can't say exactly how good, because they were highlight videos and didn't give any stats.

    He does have good form shooting from outside, though. Impressed me.

    Before CJ got here I read on the Rivals board that he couldn't shoot but that he takes the ball to the basket as well as anyone. That analysis turned out to be true.

    You're probably right 87. I might be confusing CJ with someone like Parrom.
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    From the videos I've seen of Parrom, he reminds me of Justin Cage with a better jumper.

    Parrom can finish with either hand around the rim and can step outside and hit the three. He looks to be a pretty good rebounder too.

    He could be an excellent small forward/shooting guard down the road.

    Here's a couple of videos.

    I see him stepping in almost right away and assuming the 3 position next year.

    It would be a lot of fun watching Brown, Love, Crawford, Holloway and Parrom on floor all at the same time.....and then be able to run Frease, Redford, Lyons and McClean off he bench.......thats a damb solid 9 guys......with the guys off the bench all capable of starting.

    People seem to forget about Jackson. There is no way he doesn't get significant minutes and likely start.

    Yes, my bad.......Jackson will be a key part of the team...he is becoming more and more versatile.....he can play PG and SG......I wonder if Miller is considering him at all for a role like BJ's this year ? It would be great if he could add 10-15 lbs in the offseason

    Yes, but he doesn't like to show-off.

    And that's a solid, solid 10 guys.
