Kellan Grady

And they were certainly pushing the name ID, repeatedly calling him "Kellan Grady" through the first four graphs before settling into "Grady" for the final two.

While I love the extra coverage and attention to Davidson and the A-10, we need to realize that this is essentially a college student blog site and in the grand scheme of the national sporting news media, doesn't amount to much.

I do appreciate their efforts and encourage them to continue, but putting much weight into their predictions, etc. doesn't count for a lot. We certainly wouldn't note players or teams with "A10 Talk" accolades in a player/team's bio or resume.

Regardless, I always enjoy additional insight to our Davidson team and the rest of the conference opponents.

Agreed. I absolutely enjoy the content and hope they keep it going, but A10Talk is roughly as noteworthy as that Mid-Major Top 25 site. Laughing

Sure, it’s “just a student run blog,” but they produce an imputes amount of content and are filling a void. I’m happy to support anyone who wants to write daily about our league. I’ve also seen scrappy online news outlets disrupt other news areas and wouldn’t be surprised if five years from now A10 talk is the authoritative site for league news. They could also be dormant.

For now, if you google A10 predictions, they are on page 1 of the results, right behind some outfit called “SI.”

He’s arguably one of the best in the country at finishing around the bucket and can certainly fight through contact as well. Should he improve his efficiency from three slightly this year, he could be that much more deadly as a sophomore.


Bob warns, and probably said it again last night, that Peyton cleared Kellan's lanes to the basket. So it won't be surprising if some of those moves from last season don't happen so often.

Still, Kellan is clearly one of the best three shooters on the team.
