I tend believe the guy that has been posting for the past 3 years that I have come to know over someone that has been a member of the board for less than a week.

This thread is about J Young. Stop trying to sidetrack this thread.

Young is a better athlete with more basketball skills than Chris Wright showed at UD his junior and senior years. For instance, Young has better ball handling and passing skills and can shoot the mid-range jumper and "3" much better. Jerran needs to hone his skills for a year or two in the D-League and if he does he'll reap the benefits of playing in the League. IMO, more time in the League than CW, if he hones his basketball skills.
The collegiate difference between Young and the aforementioned Wright is that the UD coaching staff knew what they had and tried to revolve the offense around one of the best athletes in Div I. BD doesn't do that. UD rode their stud into consecutive respectable post-season tournaments...Can BD change his coaching strategy and get one NIT or NCAA with a stud like Young??

Guys we need to keep voting for Jerran in the Dark Horse Slam Dunking contest. He has a slight lead over the other guy. He deserves to be in that contest. Watching Young warming up you can see why he is in the running for this.

In the first round voting Young is ahead of his challenger 54% to 46%. You can vote daily so keep the votes coming.

Jerran is behind in voting 51-49. He is in the 2nd round of voting. Let's get him to that slam dunk contest, when was the last time we had a Raider to make a run for the slam dunk contest? It would be a cool situation to have a Raider on national television for all those recruits to see.

Seems to me an excellent topic that should be sent to the student body or a creative programmer... :-)

When I have a chance I'll send an email and try to get it on the WINGS poll and include a link to vote.

I live that all of JY Jams were live game action at division I level. And several of them he created the steal that lead to our bucket. How could an impartial voter pick the other guy (who's dunks were nice) who had maybe one or two live dunks? Sure in warmups and practice he is able to put a big jam down but jerran is a high flyer when it counts.
That said why does it say that if I vote all my info and my friend list is given to this site? The last thing I want is to have all my friends get spam because I want to vote for JY.

I believe that is simply for the purpose of sharing on your facebook page that you voted so your friends can go vote for him if they'd like to as well.

The next poll on WINGS isn't available til Wednesday, but if we get Young through to the next round, it will be put on there for the next round to bring more attention and hopefully votes to Jerran.
