Pretty sure I made this clear in my previous post? Did you reply without reading it? Yes, he had a terrible year shooting last year, and was mediocre at best the year before. That being said, at at least some point in high school, based on the statistic that I referred to in my previous post, he was at one point a reliable outside shooter, especially when you consider his stature. IF he were to return to that level of shooting from the outside (meaning 3 pt shooting in case that wasn’t obvious enough already), he would be one of the better outside shooters on the team. Will he ever regain confidence in his shooting? I have no clue… but a change in scenery can sometimes do a lot of good for a guy’s confidence. Like I said in the post of mine that you originally responded to. Even if he doesn’t shoot any better than he did last year at BYU, he’s still better than Riley Battin in just about every conceivable way. He’s stronger, waaaay more athletic, a much more willing, and more skilled defender (that’s not saying much since Battin never did anything on defense other than attempt to take charges), and has the potential to be a much better scorer. Even if he doesn’t fix his shot, he’s still not much worse than Battin from deep.
Is Lohner going to be the second coming of Tom Chambers? No… but he could help the team, and that is what I care about.
