    the board couldn't have asked for a more perfect name! sign him to the roster for the name alone. "yo listen up here is a story about a little guy who lives in a blue world.."

    He looks like a more athletic Jeremy Lin. Great signing

    Reminds me of a more skilled and athletic version of Air Jordan. He's a better finisher though.

    .....


    A solid pickup, doubt he makes the team though. He will have to do a lot to secure a spot.

    He's clutch too, he saved Marquette from a first round upset against Davidson in the last minute, I have no idea how he went undrafted. He could be like our next Von Wafer.

    Did Vander Blue get cut, or did he already take off to play for the Griz Summer League team?
