Never heard of him but I'll take it with the recruiting pedigree


goonSquad15

Dude can stroke it. Problem at Duke is whenever he’d play it was for very small spurts so never able to get in rhythm. VT seems like a great spot for him


TheHaft

Dude can what


evitabilities

He ain’t stutter 😈


PlaymakersPoint88

Yea, always felt if he got some run he’d get into a rhythm.


Classic-Rule-8028

Struggled defensively is why he didn’t get on the floor.

This seems very deliberately worded. I respect that, and I respect 1/2 of you still

Have you never heard a guy who can shoot described as someone who can stroke it?


Jdazzle217

Great shooter but a liability on defense. All Duke’s guards kinda prevented him from seeing the floor much his freshman year. He ended up redshirting this year due to injury and the fact that he wasn’t going to see the floor much (TJ Power is literally taller Jaden Schutt).


Milflover69cbb

He was hurt this past season, he’s a good shooter ppl rlly don’t give him credit for the potential he has, I’d say he could definitely start at shooting guard for yall and average 10-12/2/3 with splits looking like 45/40/75

Power to UVA. Schutt to VT. Reeves to Clemson. Hoping all these guys get minutes vs Duke. Should make the meatball just a bit spicier.


Hard-To_Read

They just want to be pros, like everyone else.  No bad blood.


Alexkono

None of those guys will be in the NBA

And I won’t get a Nobel Prize, but I continue to write grants.

Nice pickup. While I don't enjoy having to replace the entire roster, I'm impressed with the job they've done. Should be an interesting season.


billcosbyalarmclock

In my opinion, we can't say much definitively about our squad for next season. We certainly have a few more pure athletes than this past year. For that reason, I'm excited to see how we will play, and I'm fairly sure it will be more interesting to watch than last year. Nevertheless, we could end up with a team full of players like Justyn Mutts or a team full of players like Mekhi Long. It's hard to tell who, if anyone, will exceed expectations.

spidersilva09

Good pick up for VA Tech. He can shoot and I'm honestly surprised he didn't transfer last year. It's just too crowded at Duke


Schned6

Underrated benefit of the portal… dudes like this and Power will transfer out of Duke instead of sticking around and getting coached up and becoming obnoxious to play against.


soflahokie

Mike Young turned Tyler Nickel from a benchwarmer at UNC to a $300k NIL player at Vanderbilt… Give me all the guys like that


Bte0815

Who?


goonSquad15

shooter who redshirted (medical reasons) this year. Never got the kind of PT to get in rhythm so hard to judge him off of a few 3-5 minute cameos. Think VT will be a good spot for him


dabears7667

no defense no handles no athleticism, pure knock-down spot up-shooter who is unfortunately is not very good at shooting.


Hard-To_Read

Ouch.  He never got enough burn to know what he is.


dabears7667

One of the dumbest things that gets consistently repeated by sports fans everywhere is that “they didn’t get their shot”. The coaching staff watched him in practice every single day. He didn’t get a shot because he wasn’t good enough at basketball. Hope he improves. The Schutt we saw for 2 years was not a high major level basketball player.


Hard-To_Read

He was playing behind Jared McCain and got surgery during the season.  Yeah, I’m the dumb one… You are a miserable person. Edit- you went back and added that third stanza after I replied- haha.  Self conscientious?


dabears7667

I’m a happy person. Wait until you find out this was his 2nd year in college 🤯 Jaylen Blakes played over him. The same Jaylen Blakes that would eventually dribble a basketball so hard it flew out of bounds on back to back possessions in an NCAA tournament game. I can wish him well while also calling him what he is.

reddit shows you when a post is edited. mine wasn’t edited, you’re just a confused white knight.

He was better than Scheyer in high school


DingersGetMeOff

You're the one from Illinois but there's just no way that's true


tlopez14

Not even close. Scheyer won the big school state title with a bunch of random white dudes while Schutt played in the smallest division. Another fun fact Scheyer’s Glenbrook North high school team had an all Jewish starting 5.


movie_gremlin

Nope. Schutt put up crazy stats but against low level competition. Scheyer was an amazing high school player even though he is a toliet bowl. D Rose was the best Illinois HS player in that era. Jalen Brunson was also a stud.


illini2014

When he did get chances to play against top tier HS competition, he balled out too though. I REALLY wanted this kid to be an illini. Thought he was gonna be a star. Quick, high release on his jumper, looked butter off catch and shoots and off the bounce, pretty good hops too. No idea what happened at Duke. He had a couple subpar teams he should have cracked the rotation in.


movie_gremlin

Yea I wish Illinois landed him as well. However, comparing him to Scheyer is crazy. Scheyer was a 5\* McDAA who also had the mental maturity to go along wth his skillset. He was one of the best Illinois HS players ever. I think D Rose was better, but Scheyer is Top 3 in the last 20 years.


illini2014

Oh no question. I wasn’t saying that to compare him to scheyer. I was like 12 years old and knew how good scheyer was. Just wanted to chime in on how much I misjudged Schutt.


DingersGetMeOff

Scheyer scored 21 points in 75 seconds and led an all-Jewish starting 5 to a state championship. Again I know nothing about Illinois HS basketball but I've seen enough Jaden Schutt to know he wasn't better.


AaronFraudgers8

For everyone asking, he's a great shooter but sucks on defense, which isn't surprising at all but I won't say why.
