Is he with the team and practicing this Summer?  I was impressed when I saw him play (high school).

Yes

[Tim Hensley]

Damn, don't scare me like that.

[AEOS]

Does anyone have a schedule for the summer workouts?

Will Moore is a true freshman who will get some playing time. His skill set: a 6-7 wing who can shoot the 3.

i have my doubts that any of the true freshmen coming in will be significant factors but i hope any of them are next on the list.
here are the last several true freshmen or first time in a college game players to make solid contributions, snag significant playing time, and/or start games.  i'm not certain these were all TRUE FR.  Elmore was a transfer who started second semester, correct? 

by the way, how would you like to have, from the last decade or so, the best 16 all on one team!

Micah Handlogten (2022-23, 2 years ago)
Obinna Anochili-Killen (2020-21, 4 years ago)
Andrew Taylor (2019-20 5 years ago) transferred in but had never played, correct?
Taevion Kinsey (2018-19, 6 years ago)
Jon Elmore (2015-16, 9 years ago)
C J Burks (borderline) (2015-16, 9 years ago)
Ryan Taylor (2013-14, 11 years ago)
Kareem Canty (2013-14, 11 years ago)

He  is really thin though.. I hope he can add some weight and muscle.

[svherd]

Yep. If we expect a freshmen to contribute immediately, that's a sad statement for our program. Some 5 minutes of help, sure.

Moore has game!! Very athletic, great range with his shot! If he performs like I think he will, we?ll be lucky to keep him 2 years.

Phenom Commitment Alert: 2024 Will Moore is headed to Marshall
by Patrick O'Brien | Oct 12, 2023 |

What He Said:

Phenom: What made Marshall the place for you in the end'
Moore: I prayed for clarity and God made it more than clear that Marshall was the place for me. The community and ?home? feeling were unreal and even just the social media support I?ve gotten has really influenced my decision. The coaching staff is amazing, and their play style is a dream for someone like me.

Phenom: What does the staff have in mind for you and your game, and how you can impact the program'
Moore: They have told me that they play mostly positionless basketball which is awesome. I think working on bringing the ball up the court will make me more comfortable as a player in handling pressure. They told me they don?t promise anything, which I love but I know they lost two starters and I also know that Coach Dantoni isn?t afraid to play freshmen. I also know that I am going to work so hard to earn my spot on that team, while also playing through their system and creating a winning team!

Phenom: What kind of relationship have you been able to create with the staff there'
Moore: Coach Williams was one of the best recruiters. It really didn?t feel like I was being recruited to a school, it just felt more like a good relationship. He NEVER pressured me and NEVER talked down on other programs and that reflected his confidence in his own program. The rest of the staff, including Coach Dantoni, just made me feel so at home and showed me so much support during my AAU season and even checked in with me during my injury when I missed a whole season. The community and their support made me really fall in love with the school and just the buzz on campus when an event is going on related to a HM atmosphere along with HM facilities and 24-hour access.

Game Description:

?I would say I have developed a mindset on the court that sets me apart from my opponents.  I feel like I am someone you can?t leave open, but you can?t close out too quickly on.  I?ve learned to develop my game by playing up all my life.  I used to be short playing against tall kids, so I had to learn how to have a quick handle and finish at the rim.  Now that I?ve developed physically, I?m getting a chance to combine what I?ve grown up doing with what being 6?5 comes with.  It is really fun playing above the rim too.  Recently, my coach has expressed the important of the ?one more? pass.  I have been working on finding the open guy in transition.? ?

Didn?t stand out to me like Moore did, but have only seen one practice. What I saw looked encouraging.
