    I was actually wondering about the spelling - with or without the accent. I've seen it both ways. But I do like the last one, too.

    On the Columbia web site it has the accent aigu, for what that's worth.

    Keep in mind that Cut brought in three this season after bringing in only one prior to this season. Duke football also lost a boatload of players to the grad-student transfer portal. More players opt to become grad-student transfers, which leads to more openings for grad-student transfers. Off-seasons are going to become much more fluid and much more interesting, with a much less clear end date.

    I think he should be called either Scotch of Duct.
    I've heard that his sister, Cassette, is interested in playing for the women.

    Technical note: on Windows computers, you can type an é by holding down the Alt key while you hit 130 on the number pad. Tapé!

    Wow! It works! Is their a dictionary of such codes easily available?

    Tapé is listed at 6-10 232, but it will be interesting to see if that the year away from hoops and in the weight room, if he is a tab stronger now and added some more weight.
    In looking at his game, some things stand out to me.
    1. He can score and is capable around the basket with either hand. That's a plus for Duke. Although he may not be asked or needed to score much, him being capable is a good thigs.
    2. He's an average rebounder by his totals. I wonder if that is positioning or being pushed around in the paint. Duke will need him to be a good rebounder because there is going to be some bigs that are very good on the glass next year.
    3. He averages a block per game

    Overall, I think he will be solid next year and will or might give more than Jav did offensively.

    Thanks for sharing - good to know. We need a list of ACC players who have had a symbol in their name - the only other one I can think of is Henrik Rodl (I googled how to type an umlaut over an o and it is apparently alt-0246 but it doesn't seem to work here).

    It can be tricky to project Ivy league stats to the ACC* and Tapés rebounding numbers are a bit "mixed". As you point out, his rebounding rate was fairly average in 2019, his most recent season. That year his offensive rebound rate ranked 141 out of 280 Division 1 players 6'9" or taller. His defensive rebound rate was a bit better, ranking 101 out of 280. He was a much better rebounder in 2018. That season, his offensive rebound rate ranked 6 out of 276 Division 1 players 6'9" or taller and his defensive rebound rate ranked 125.

    As far as blocking shots, he ranked 64 in 2019 and 41 in 2018.




    *Keep in mind that Sean Obi had the second highest defensive rebound rate in the entire country during his Freshman season at Rice.

    If Patrick is caught in reverie, staring into the distance: Gauze Tape?

    Upon entering his specialty after med school: Surgical Tape.

    When talking on his mobile device: Cellophone Tape?

    I wonder what Jose Fonseca will do to Patrick's ankle if Patrick rolls it slightly . . . .
    "Amazing what a minute can do."

    When our coaches were doing their due diligence on Patrick, reviewing the videos of past games, did they watch the Tape Tape?

    If Patrick is tardy, is that a Tape delay?
