Tuesday Links & Notes

Print- We've been stuck on Eddie House-Bobby Jackson comparisons for Quincy Douby. Marty McNeal introduces a less instinctive possibility: Vinnie "The Microwave" Johnson. McNeal: "Johnson was as thick as Douby is slight, but the second-year guard also has some electronic scoring abilities we'll soon see. We'll see them even quicker when he stops passing up wide-open shots. That should be a finable offense for a guy with the ability to catch and shoot like he can." The one major difference I see: Douby can surely shoot better from long-range than The Microwave. Johnson never broke 30% from three in the prime of his career; I think Douby can be a 35-37% deep shooter. (He shot 40% at Rutgers in 2005-06 as the only offensive threat.) But it's going to take a lot of work for Douby to even approach Johnson's impact.
- Reggie Theus is trying to get New Mexico State students into tonight's exhibition against Dallas for free.
- From the same Sam Amick story: "... said Theus, who still owns a home in Las Cruces and has been back twice since June for dove hunting trips with friends." People hunt doves?

People hunt doves all the time...with shotguns no less. Not really for the meat (although some will enjoy) mostly done for the sport of it.

TZ out of all the StR members, I figured at least you would've been to the Brad Miller basketball camp at least once.

Regarding the Rockies - To see a team celebrate while their fans hold "Purple Reign" signs...makes me all misty.
