The good news on rinehart is that the coaches love his attitude, toughness & work ethic. The bad news is that they didn't think he was ready last year.

If that bad news carries over, it's still no reason to write him off. If he's as good a student & worker as the coaches think, he'll show improvement. It might not be till later in the year & it might be sink or swim if Thomas or Dock gets hurt.

No doubt that his development, or lack thereof, is going to factor into the draft. They can talk about best player available all they want, but I don't think they want a guard w/our highest pick, unless we trade back into the 2nd.
