Profiles: Demetri "Meech" Goodson



Demetri Goodson


Class: SO.
HT: 5-11
WT: 165
Hometown: Spring, TX (Klein Collins)

Meech is a lightning quick point guard out of the Houston, TX metro area. Goodson's brother Mike Goodson is a NFL draft early entry from Texas A&M. Meech played football in High School through his Sophomore year and played well enough to warrant scholarship offers all over the Big 12 despite being out of football for two seasons. He is probably one of the top 2 or 3 fastest players in all of college basketball. Goodson is the future of Gonzaga when it comes to the point guard position. He is a smart gutsy kid who is not afraid to drive the lane on larger, tougher opponents. He can step outside to hit the three occasionally and has excellent court vision. His best attributes are probably his ability to bring the ball up the court as fast as anyone and his mentality. He plays the game like a winner, like someone who is out there every night to will his team to victory. I expect Meech to be a leader for the Zags going forward.
