Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
WIth NIL now a factor, if he continues on this path/development progression, we'll be luck to have him more than 2 years, 3 at most, before a bigger program scoops him up.
Save your breath... you'll need it to blow up your date
Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
^Nice problem to have! Hope we have many more quality players come through the program.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
Let’s keep the ridiculous comparisons going. Maybe this class is just like Franks first KSU season. It will be very interesting if Garpare/Luis/Keon are Beasley/Walker/Pullen.
Luis really has potential to be a great insider/outside scorer with his size. He can shoot over smaller guards and looks to have decent 3 point range.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
Let's also give him credit for making 2 absolutely pressure free throws to give us the 3 point lead at the end. That's a lot to ask from a freshman.

Luis got the A10 ROTW nod this week

That's UM's first since in almost 2 years (Ronnie DeGray)

If you haven’t joined The Massachusetts Collective yet, the emergence of RJ is a great reason to do so. Stay tuned, and JOIN www.TheMassCollective.com/join
Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
RJ should get the full Player of the Week after this week's numbers:
13-23 FG (.565)
26-28 FT (.929)
27.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 3.5 apg
I don't closely follow the weekly nods, but curious if the league ever gives PotW and RotW to the same person.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
I agree - he should get both - no way anybody had as good a week as he did.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
RJ nabs the last ROTW of the season.
23 & 7 at Duq
14 & 9 vs Bona
https://umassathletics.com/news/2023/3/ ... third-time
Seems like he's a safe bet to make the A-10 Rookie Team. Will be in the mix for ROTY, but is going up against a couple of leading contenders:
Maximus Edwards at GW
Yann Farell at Bona
They've each won or shared 5 ROTWs.
Edwards https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/pl ... rds-2.html
Farell https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/pl ... ell-1.html
RJ https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/pl ... uis-1.html
Tournament starts tomorrow so I think they'll announce the season awards later today.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
A10 awards announced this morning. RJ made the All-Rookie Team.

https://umassathletics.com/news/2023/3/ ... ookie-team
RJ is UM's first Rookie Team member since Tre Mitchell in 2019-20 (when Tre was also ROTY).
RJ got beat out for ROTY by GW's Maximus Edwards.

Re: KAEO Reggie (RJ) Luis
This is fantastic. Great work, and I'm thrilled to know that RJ will be back. It's so great that a kid from Miami can look out his window in March with the kind of weather we've been having, and say "yes, this is where I want to play basketball". RJ is a true foundational piece.
