Tracking the Draft Stock of Louisiana's Elfrid Payton

[CajunRebel]

Hope this young man makes the best decision for HIM and his family! Thanks for playing 3 seasons with UL, I and many here hope like hell you decide to stay at Louisiana ONE more year, but if not WE understand. I think people like coach Marlin and coach Donovan tend to know the most about your decision.

Remember, Life is about choices, we make good ones or bad ones, but we live by those we make!

Yeah, that's what you're supposed to say. But we all know you're thinking PLEEEAASSEEEE STAAAAAYY PEYYTONNN!!!!!

Ha ha lol. Lmbo. All the prior YEP y'all are right with God as my witness I would love Peyton to come back to the Cajuns sure up his free-throw and outside shooting game and be a lottery pick next year after going past the Sweet 16 as a Cajun!

I cannot see Payton getting better at free throws at UL, and maybe anywhere. He has been at about the same percentage his whole career. Another year is not likely to fix that unless Marlin brings in Rick Barry to coach him the granny toss.

I believe he is gone. I believe his father really wants him in the NBA this year and I think he will ultimately decide to declare. Whether he could stay one more year and further his draft stock like Doug McDermott did this year is another thing but its also risky. I do think there is the possibility he could slide further as the draft is loaded this year, particularly at guard. With the great year and tournament that several senior PG's had like Napier, Wilbekin and Appling, he's going to have a lot of competition in the first round

You can always improve. Not saying he would become an 85% shooter but he can always get better.

I sort of agree. I think the BIGGEST improvement he can make in the offseason is his jump shot. He does that, then you'd see his FG% go from 50 to about 60ish, and that's huge

Should Elfrid stay or should he go?

For a group that is so concerned with outsiders getting our name right, can we at least spell Elfrid's name correctly while begging him to stay???

It's PAyton, not PEyton.

Carry on.
