Our guards are fine, but none of them would start for the upper half of big ten teams. Joseph would have a chance by his junior/senior years.

Westbrook...one trip pony..can shoot when hot, can score in spurts. He has trouble playing defense and dribbling. He is an ok athlete and strong. Can be selfish has been better last few games.

Devoe..a good all round talent. Not the quickest guy, but he seems to have a good IQ. He needs strength. He is an ok shooter and a pretty good one on one player.

Hoff...an awesome shooter. No athlete. Plays his tail off. Very high bball IQ. Does some of the little things well: rebound, picks, pick and roll.

Cobbs...strong pg, pass first mentality. Not a quick athlete either. Average shooter?

IN summation: We have no perimeter athletes that are both quick and strong and have the skill to break down opponents to draw the defense and kick, nor do we have the defenders there to stop dribble penetration.

Purdue has: Moore, Jackson, and to some extent Grant and Kramer who can all do this.
