Yes, he's that good. It's been a long, long time since Valpo had a player who could do this.

I think that is a tad bit of an exaggeration. A nice athletic move but not uber athletic. I know that both Matt and Ryan could also make such a dunk, but doing it against D1 competition is a whole different ballgame. I don't want to get into a p!$$!^& contest but check out the 3A state finals video that I posted with the link on page 29 of this thread. McCall makes almost the exact same move down the middle of the lane only he slams it two handed and is about a foot higher off the floor than Yeo.

We will agree to disagree on the degree of Clay's athleticism.  You can also find on youtube a video of Clay bounding down the court on a breakaway dunk, in which he takes exactly 5 steps from the half court line to the middle of the lane, where he skies from 8 feet out for the easy dunk.  5 steps.  Again, I reiterate I haven't seen that at Valpo in a long time, if ever.

New video of Clay Yeo posted this week.  Or maybe I should say "Postered".

If you don't think MSU assistants read this board you are delusional.  It's not like Valpo is a known commodity to a B1G - they'll take any scouting they can get.  That's just a fact.

GenXer, probably because a) the MSU coaches should have better things to do than read our message board and b) if they are earning their inflated salaries they have already figured these things out from watching video. I agree with you to the extent that SSSSHHH in general until the game is being played, though. It's a bit like telling Verlander, "hey, man, do you know you have a no-hitter going? ...it's totally sweet"

Sort of.  I saw a post a few back that completely described in great detail how I would go about defending Valpo.  It wasn't necessarily just "play off Buggs", which everyone knows by now.  I'm just wondering why anyone would think it was a good idea to bring this philosophy out on a Valpo fan forum the night before the biggest game in 9 years...  Unless they aren't a Valpo fan?

Why so many fans who know Valpo's offensive style inside and out continue to provide detailed observations about how MSU could beat us defensively on this VERY public message forum is beyond me.  Are you a fan or a scout for MSU?

You stay classy Sparty.  Representin...

At this point, I'm much more interested in the time of the game on Thursday.

Anyone know when we will find out a time?
