I know I will probably receive much criticism for this post but I do think it must be posted.

It's now time to really limit the minutes to Dardis. He can't deliver on, what was his strength, 3pt shooting. It appears he lacks speed and quickness which negatively impacts him to both get open, for his shot, as well as on the defense side.

I believe you should spell his name correctly.

Not the only one thinking it. God bless him for what he's overcome to get back. But would like to see him hit more "3s" when the pressure is on. Ball doesn't seem to go down when we really, really need it. And I know that's crazy to say about the 3 point king in MAC history. But knocking down the big shot in pressure moments this year has been lacking from Dartis.

Is he any relation to Tardis? Maybe we can get a Dr. Who sighting in the Convo.

I see where your take is coming from but who will replace him and get any offense? Roderick is slower than Jordy. Miles is a great defender with no offense yet. Dartis has earned it and is one of 3 true offensive scorers we have.

Good grief I assumed this was a typo but then I notice the tag line was also spelled wrong.
My boy Jordy is compromised I will give you that but he is out there competing the best he can
When called upon let’s do better by Mr Dartis he has earned it.

Although Jordy passed Nick Kellogg as the Ohio career leader in 3 pt FG made and holds the Newark HS record, and although he passed UT's Nate Navigato, the MAC leader heading into this season, he currently trails current CMU forward David DeLio as the 3 point king in MAC history.

When did he become the king? I have not followed that much. I thought the guy up at CMU had taken that title over.

Embarrassing that you can't spell his name, but letting that slide who exactly should be taking his minutes?

Even in a down year he still has the 2nd highest offensive rating and 2nd highest 3pt % on the team (2nd to only Springs in limited minutes).

3rd best true shooting % on the whole team after Preston and BVP who are already playing a ton of minutes. And to top it all off he has the lowest turnover rate, meaning he never turns the ball over.

+1

He's still a better shooter than 75% of the MAC. You don't sit a guy like that.

Benching someone who has given as much as he has sends the wrong message. Morale matters.

He is a starter and regular to the end. But an argument can be made to play closer to 25 mins than 35.

If changing his name to Dardis gets him going...do it every week. Well done Jordy...keep it up.

Looks like Dartis must have read my post and it lit a fire under him.
Great game JD.

It has been too long since his last game shooting like that. The truth is we can't do this without more of that. Hope he is and feels healthy for the stretch run. He's so dangerous and his release is so quick. Knock em down Jordy! Onions! What?

Agree...especially with the schedule that awaits with these last five games. Brutal stretch coming up. He's going to have to hit a few more 20 point games.
