I have a buddy who is a Delaware grad and fan who is a hoops junkie who regularly attends high school games. This is also a guy who knows talent level. (For example, he is always pointing out that Delaware HS competition is below par).
I asked if he thought Donte could ever start for 'Nova. His take:
"It never crossed my mind that he would not eventually start for Nova. He has improved quite a bit on his stroke. His ability to rise from deep is really impressive. Hell, if Trevor Cooney can start for Cuse, Donte should be able to start for Nova. Granted, Nova's recruits a different caliber of guard, but Donte looks like real deal athletically and he is a legit 6-3 or 6-4 I think."
He thinks Donte has improved tremendously since last season.
My own take on Donte is that he has close to elite Big East athleticism. He has worked on his handle. Personally, I feel he can develop into a really solid player. He is extremely unselfish and is a "good fit" for Jay.
