I'm interested in what the long term plan is as well. Contrary to what some
say. Planning is more important than ever. These coaching staffs likely have a plan, a backup plan, and two more back up plans for good measure.
I also wonder if they envision a red shirt situation for Gurdak or a "two headed monster" where you hope to always have one fresh?
On another note, I'm not good at looking at high school tape to evaluate how a player will translate to college ball. I'm curious as to how his tape differs from Wessler's at the same time. It sounds to me like Gurdak is considered to be a guy that could contribute immediately and not a long term project, like Wessler. So, what is the big difference? On the surface Gurdak looks "better", but Wessler had a pretty fancy highlight tape too. It seems that Wessler hasn't developed the speed and coordination to play ACC ball. Does Gurdak already have that or is he more likely to do so? Serious question, and not trying to dog either player.

If Jones can actually become a legit 3pt threat may be hard to take him off
