TonyStalloni Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I'd hope we have 2 more years with him but maybe not. His ceiling is high and he can give teams fits with his length. His ability to tap balls back out and extend possessions is crazy. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I think he is outstanding, but with that said if he were to try and go pro, he'd spend a couple years in the G-League refining those skills while he could just do that at Nebraska while earning his degree and dancing in March.

BIG ERN Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 He will graduate here. At 6'7 he would have to play SF at the next level. If he improves on some more guard skills he could be a poor mans Harrison Barnes 2 Quote Link to comment

Once he figures out how good he really is watch out. 1 Quote Link to comment

This is a story about Isaiah Roby, so you know it’s coming. Roby knows it’s coming, too. He’s heard it and read it a million times — so often, that he basically counts down the seconds in his interviews until the phrase comes. His response is usually something to the tune of flattery and timidness. But the answer is yes. Roby does know how good he is. He does. Everyone can stop asking. “I think it’s a cool thing, I guess, if they see potential in me,” Roby said of pundits and fans on Twitter who often wonder if Roby knows he could be a first-round NBA draft pick or All-Big Ten player. “I see potential in myself, too.” Roby thinks the reason why so many ask if he realized his talent is because he isn’t a volume scorer. But that’s what will get him paid one day, and what will help Nebraska this year as a utility forward. Last year, Roby averaged 8.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, two blocks and 1.7 assists per game, up from his freshman year, when he averaged 3.1 points, 2.9 rebounds. As a sophomore, Roby shot 40 percent from 3-point range and 56 percent from the floor, taking 5.3 shots per game. “I’m not gonna be the guy who is gonna go out and take 25 shots or something like that,” Roby said. “I’m gonna be an all-around guy.” 2 Quote Link to comment
