Dylan flood was a joke but come on jake was suppsed to be a sniper the 3 and barely hits anything all year. He doesn't have much to live up to and yet still managed to be overrated

In all seriousness (in contrast to my last post), I'd agree with most of this, except I'd put Manigat as the most overrated player we have and Artino the most underrated. Jahenns can guard a specific type of player well (see Allen Crabbe and Colt Ryan) but he totally disappears for weeks at a time. If his shot is off he's almost a total liability. Artino has a unique set of skills that have shown well in limited action in both of his two seasons. I think he will present a really intriguing problem for opposing Ds.
