Question: Would Stemler and Thorton be considered the same player for a team or would Stemler be farther ahead body wise? I don't remember how big Stemler was other than height? Seems like they would both play the same position hitting quick treys when needed!

What I remember about Stemler is, when ever he got the ball, he looked like a deer caught in headlights.
I believe Joe Stowell would refer to him as a 3:00 o'clock player.
Are we sure he has changed?
He was a good JUCO player before, but when he got to Bradley??????????????????????????

I think they are similar players, just 3 years apart.

I saw Lance Stemler in St. Louis, and he had gained some weight, was very muscular, and looked much stronger. I am sure he'll be a good player whereever he goes. He problems at Bradley last year were due to inexperience, like all freshmen have.

Zach Thornton is a very similar player to Lance when Lance was in high school. Zach does not have a Division I body just yet. I understand the scholarship offer to UW-Milwaukee was made with the understanding that he would redshirt to get stronger. But with his great showing, maybe Zach will get other offers?

Excuuuuuse me!

I apologize to Ryan Thornton for mixing up the name. I have too many different guys on my mind, plus being distracted by the whole NCAA/selection suspense. Thanks for correcting me.

TJ is not the shooter BU needs, but how many players are good at so many aspects of the game?
I hope BU gets him this spring.

[Fetz86]

well I have heard that TJ's teammate Aaron Synder is also interested in BU, he could be the shooter we need.

[Big Mike]

What year is Snyder?

He is also a senior
