Stansbury’s preached about how his program will be built around defense and rebounding. He’s talk- ed about how “it’ll take all of us” to get Hilltopper basketball back on the map, and how fans need to get their tickets now, because one day they’ll all be sold out. He’s said he wants to compete against the best of the best, whether that’s in recruiting or scheduling. But Stansbury’s most oft-used mantra may be one he repeated last month during a speech to the Bowling Green Noon Rotary Club. Stansbury told that crowd, as he’s told the media numerous times since taking the job, that he doesn’t want the 2016-17 WKU basketball season considered part of a rebuild. He instead wants to win right out of the gates. “I’m too old to rebuild,” Stansbury said.

Every time I’ve watched him play, he sprints extreme hard on offensive and defensive transitions, he has a high motor. Great size and long arms. Active on defense and tends to overhelp at times. Can handle the ball in open court. No sign of back to basket moves, when pressured and bodied, he fades away. Able to pressure. Rebounds well on both ends. Precious has good form on shot and penetrates well. He is a team player and plays through mistakes. Loses sight of man play off ball on defense. Good feet and moves well on defense. He can guard 1-5. He is a good rebounder and attacks the basket. Rebounds extremely well and runs the floor on both ends. Putting it on the floor well. Good IQ. Posts up and faces the basketball well and attacks. Good hands. Precious has the capacity to be a high scorer, scoring 20 points in the second half of the game he was scouted in. He did foul out but stayed engaged with team huddles, without an attitude or pouting.
