I've only seen highlight videos of Jamar Brown, but to me he doesn't look like he'll be too effective on the D1 level at UCLA in the B1G. For a wing he's a bit undersized. He seems to be a bit slow. And at least on the videos he appears to be mainly a spot up shooter. Looking at the defenses he was up against on the videos, he's going to go up against bigger, quicker, stronger opponents who probably close out a lot stronger than what he faced in Kansas City.
To me he looks like a guy who might give Cronin 10 minutes, maybe make some shots (3's?) and maybe does no harm. Like I said, I could be way off here but he doesn't look like someone Cronin could ask or expect a lot from. I still think Cronin needs to get some more money from somewhere and go and get a legitimate D1 wing with some offensive power who he may have to coach up on defense or maybe not.
At this point I'm not feeling too good about net season. We'll see and I hope I'm wrong.
