Jared Dudley Looks Like He Sucks, But He's Pretty Freaking Good
Hmm, it appears that I may have been wrong about the Superfans. They don’t suck after all. At least not at basketball. BC had another impressive win yesterday beating Maryland fairly easily at The Heights. I haven’t decided how good I think they really are yet. But they are obviously a Top 20 team and the loss to Vermont was clearly a fluke job. I think part of the problem when evaluating the Superfans is that it’s tough to take Jared Dudley seriously. Apparently Gary Williams said he was the best player in the ACC. And while I guess I have no problem with that statement, I think even the most ardent Superfan would have to admit that he is the worst looking superstar in the history of college hoops.
I feel like if I saw him on the street I’d bet my life that I could beat him in a game of one on one. (Aside from the fact he’s 6'7”). He just looks like a loser.
Not only is he real ugly, but his posture sucks. He looks like the Hunchback of Notre Dame out there. And he never does anything in a game that makes you shake your head and say wow. I mean he can’t really jump. He doesn’t seem that quick. He’s not a great outside shooter. It seems like all he does is clean up with garbage points and do the little things that you don’t notice. Not to mention the fact the way he celebrates is JV. There is just nothing spectacular about him except his numbers, but I guess that’s all that matters.
