    He is a better jumper and more nimble, though. I see him as more of a Randolph Childress, type, with more attack. I just see the NBA chock full of good college players who are undersized, or a skill mismatch, fir their position.
    I agree. I see him as a more developed Jonny Flynn.

                    Started watching this on my droid here at the rec center (daughter and friends swimming). I'm 15 seconds in and a group a high schoolers stop playing basketball to watch. All Jimmer fans but mixed on University affiliation. Sure it's just South Jordan but Jimmer could negotiate peace in the Middle East.

                        If you folllow the #jimmer hash tag there is some funny stuff. Love the uban slang tweets about a BYU player. Cracks me up.

                          While pumping gas at the Pilot gas station in Dunnegan CA yesterday, a non-mo, non-BYU guy waiting for me to finish looked at my license plate covers and commented about how impressive Jimmer's 52 points were the other night. He was excited to see how he and the team were going to do on the big stage of the tourney this week.

                          Jimmermania = Less awkward waiting at gas station pumps in rural America.

                            Down in Vegas Jimmer was the topic of conversation everywhere we went. Waitresses at the Diamond Lounge, random brothas on the street, even a homeless Vietnam Vet with one leg mentioned Jimmer to me.

                                Sometimes it feels as if the whole country has Jimmermania. Day by day, the bandwagon keeps growing for a player who averages a national-best 27.9 points.

                                “We’ll take anyone right now,” Fredette said. “Anyone that wants to join, come on in.”

                                Fredette may want to be careful what he wishes for. The more the hoopla builds, the more it becomes clear: When the NCAA tournament begins later this week, no player in college basketball will have as much pressure on his shoulders as Fredette.

                                Not that he’s feeling it.

                                “Jimmer has a unique ability,” T.J. Fredette said. “When he steps on the court, it’s almost like a performer stepping onto a stage. You might have had some butterflies before. But as soon as you hear the music and see the crowd, you’re completely focused on what you’re doing.

                                “Jimmer has the ability to step on the court and not think of anything else. He just lives in the moment and plays. It’s a gift.”
                                I don't recall Andre Miller having more pressure on him that any other player in the tournament.
                                Fitter. Happier. More Productive.
