What position is “CG?”
August 13th, 2020 at 9:27 PM ^
combo guard

Suggestion: In the short term, maybe just say "combo guard." I know what CG refers to now but I don't think it's been used long enough for most people to recognize it right away.
August 14th, 2020 at 11:25 AM ^
I've clarified what CG means in like 3 different threads now and if people don't know what it means, then that's not my problem. Combo guard has been a term that's been around for a while. It's also easily looked up online

Combo guard! Combines some elements of point guard and shooting guard.
Yeah, I admit I had to look that up. I was thinking some combination of center/guard for football but one look at his profile picture tells you he is not an offensive line prospect. (That, and Gonzaga is recruiting him.)

Center Guard. It’s an old timey name for noseguard.
August 14th, 2020 at 10:57 AM ^
I wasn't sure what sport this was about, so I thought, "Maybe football center-guard? Because a basketball center-guard would make VERY little sense - although it would be a sight to behold!"
August 14th, 2020 at 9:38 AM ^
I think we should refer to a CG as 1/2 ..... or maybe a 1.5
August 13th, 2020 at 9:47 PM ^
Great. Seal the deal
August 13th, 2020 at 9:53 PM ^
Top 30 guard...perhaps we can break the trend.
August 13th, 2020 at 10:58 PM ^
Get a lineup full of Hunters. Is that too much to ask?
August 13th, 2020 at 11:54 PM ^
Gonna be hard to beat out Hoiberg and Nebraska for his commitment. Nebraska has sweet hi-tech monitors in their locker room toilets. Nothing beats streaming YouTube while pooping. It's what 18 years olds crave.
BTW, I miss Tim Miles.
August 14th, 2020 at 12:57 AM ^
Still amazes me that when they filmed that there was a pile of shit in the toilet.
August 14th, 2020 at 10:35 AM ^
I’m fact checking as we speak
August 14th, 2020 at 12:01 AM ^
While I, in general, do not believe clips to be very definitive his show the rating services over-valuing him. There is a clip of him playing against the 2021 Wisconsin PG commit, Chucky Hepburn, who is a 3*** but outplays Sallis in every way. Michigan has CG Bufkin. Sallis is not a PG-he's a 2...or a 3 if you want to go small.. Michigan needs a Collins or Whitt at point.

I tend to agree from watching a little bit. I don't see him having the handle or passing ability to be a point guard at the college level. He does have a nice looking shot and is pretty athletic. The weight thing is a concern (he's only 165 lb at 6' 3"). It would be interesting to see how he would fit next to Bufkin.
August 14th, 2020 at 10:22 AM ^
Agreed, he definitely seems more like SG. It'll be interesting to see what Juwan does with this class. We need a a PG and C in this class then has a few spots to play with. And I'm not sure if this would happen, but I wonder if he would not take a PG in this class if there's no one he likes enough and run with a few combo guard/wing types and wait for Dug McDaniel in 2022 or get a grad transfer

CovidGuard?
August 14th, 2020 at 11:37 AM ^
Emoni Bates tweeted that he might classify to 2021...
August 14th, 2020 at 12:24 PM ^
If it was from his real account then he already deleted it. Nothing there to that effect right now.
August 14th, 2020 at 1:18 PM ^
5 star Coast Guard is that an Admiral of the Fleet?
At a glance the name checks out too Sallis (Sails).
August 17th, 2020 at 4:55 PM ^
Would be a good get.
