Hometown Paper Talks with Clarke and Rorie

Nice article from the Canton Repository about Jehvon Clarke and Desmond Rorie, BG's two freshmen who were teammates at Canton McKinley High--and never lost a league game in four years--are now learning the ropes of D1 basketball.

In the profile, they discuss how much different college ball is, how they adjusting to not getting as much playing time as they are used to, the Stroh Center, and their decision to play college basketball at BG.

Like I said, it is interesting.  Both players are patiently waiting for their chance, but not TOO patiently.  You want guys who are hungry to play.  Clarke has already made a contribution and will get more minutes in the games coming up.  He had two simply amazing drives to the hoop in East Lansing and Coach has talked about targeting him to be our next PG, while Rorie has yet to play in a game.  I have been assuming that he will redshirt and then start to play the role Oglesby plays, but all that still has to play itself out.
