News came out early Friday that Yuba College shooting guard Spencer Butterfield committed to play for Utah State next season, bringing with him the toughness and scoring punch that made him a superstar at the junior college level. The Aggies are getting a player who led his team in scoring, rebounding, and steals, while having the second most assists on his team as well.
His overall numbers were 16.3 points per game, 8.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists, all while hitting on 54.3 percent of his shots from the field and 48.2 percent from behind the 3-point line. Oh, and all of this is from a guy who is only 6'3.
Based on everything that's been reported about his toughness and persona as a player, mixed in with his statistics, Butterfield sounds like the ultimate hybrid between Brian Green and Jared Quayle. If that potential doesn't get you excited... well... you probably don't know who Green and Quayle are.
