Coach Reid On John: “John has made great strides every year. When we recruited him to Snow we thought his best years would be as a junior and senior and we still believe that. He’s a legitimate five-man who has made tremendous porgress because of his work ethic and dedication. He’s a good shooter but he needs to be more consistent with his post skills and with reading situations. How he makes the transition from junior college to NCAA Division-I will be a question but he’s got the skills. He’s a good rebounder who can move laterally, something a lot of big men can’t do, and who can also hit free throws, which can be very important at the end of games.”
