    Stephenson is the highly touted freshman who’s playing great this season is going against one of the absolute best SG’s in the nation in Dominique Jones. It’s a good matchup. I suggest you watch him play, because South Florida very rarely comes on TV. Also, Augutus Gilcrist vs. Yancy Gates is a nice matchup as well…

    Welp, scratch that. Stephenson isn’t playing (injury?) and neither is Augustus due to injury. Also, I didn’t know Mike Mercer was still playing for USF….I thought he got kicked off the team. He’s still super quick and athletic though

    is gilchrist playing tonight, he’s been injured for a while. USF isnt nearly as good without him. They do there best trying to replace him with jarrid famous and toarlyn fitzpatrick but its not the same. Jones is a great player but he wont be able to beat cincy by himself

    Yea Gilchrist is out…Famous is actually looking pretty good this game. Dominique Jones is an NBA player to me. He looks great this game…If he went to UNC or Duke he’d be talked about as a top 20 pick. He’s a great talent on offense…

    He was kicked off due to academics

    Actually he was kicked off the team for having a bad attitude, not being coachable, being a distraction, etc… Academics wasn’t the reason.

    Mercer was a real good player at Georgia.  I know he has been arrested at least once for weed.  He also has had a bad knee injury or two.  He is still a solid player now but not as good as he was at Georgia

    He never developed that jumper, or that ability to be a PG that some thought he’d be. He’s a slashing player and a great defender, but those knee surgeries make him a step slower..I wish he just stayed out of trouble, he could be a nice prospect.
