Looks like a great addition! He is so quick and has great vision. Will see lots of minutes next year.

Wow. I feel like his game will transition very well to the college game. Would not be surprised if he was a day 1 starter.

While it would be great if Tre could come in and start, I do not think that should be expected. My hope is that he will be ready by game 6 or so. Maybe a good battle between him and Keon for the PG spot, with Pip there if needed.

I think it’s probably gonna be point guard by committee. Wood is probably the only pure point guard on the roster and he’s gonna play some I think, but I think multiple guys will initiate the offense — Pip, Keon, Wood, maybe even Cobb (in short spurts) — depending on lineups and matchups.

The way the offense ran this year without a true point guard really surprised me and I am not as concerned about that spot as I usually am.

I think Wood will play some, just don’t know how much.

He's got a high motor, I really like his shooting stroke - should translate well at the D1 level. Looks like a real team player............. I am most impressed by the fact that he is a low volume scorer thought.....

Looks like the next Chris Lowe to me!

It's not the strength of his game however he can hit open 3's and has good form to improve it he is not unique when it comes to three point shooting

Here's the link for the Insider Show schedule.

There's a link at the right end of the black banner for "Ask the Coach." I asked for a Trey Wood update, but that's where to go if you have any other questions.

^ Thanks, Len. I submitted a Tre update question as well. Let's see if we get an answer.
