If it’s the big man I think it is, man oh man that would be a dream. He has a NBA skill set and he is so fluid for a big man

I’m honestly surprised Williams didn’t go, he’s seriously skilled but I’m also still on the hill that Shavon Shields could have an NBA run so who am I.. no surprised at Kofi, didn’t really like his game

What’s even crazier is the grizz signed Kenneth Lofton Jr. (6’7’ 270) to a two way deal, and than they already have Bane, I really enjoy that they’re building this big weird body team around Ja

Optimistic about football program, staff they brought seems top notch, but Raiola needs to bring it, if the oline is as embarrassing has it has been than literally none of it matters, he needs to get 5 studs that enjoy violence. I’m hoping for 8 wins, be happy with 6, I expect 4 or less and than the real fun will begin. Basketball program I have literally no idea, i didn’t like the firing of Miles, but i liked the idea of Hoiberg, just like I liked the idea of Frost, up- tempo ball in the big ten is a definite zig to the normal zag, but it just hasn’t worked and the churn of players prevents me from literally knowing anything about the program. I like the identity he’s built this off-season, but has @basketballjones and @Norm Petersonhas said if the style doesn’t change it might be the ugliest season yet and that’s saying something. If we can pull it together and even finish in the middle half of the big ten 6-8 range I’d be thrilled

OKC is using him a lot as a Point-Forward for the first time this season, so that could explain why the increase in turnovers. At one point i think they had him, at Point with Poku (skinny kid they picked up) and other fowards that are non ball handlers.

I literally can’t wait for this game tomorrow

I’m hoping Yvan continues to develop and turns into our version of Patric Young.. similar build to Yvan, developed into a solid bruiser of a big that controlled the paint for those mid 2010 Florida teams. Very impressed with his Freshman season !

Things i feel like most pro teams like or will give a 1st round look to Roby.. His effort on defense or approach to team basketball isn't questionable, kid has the skills to get both Blocks and Steals and played out of position for basically 2.5 years, didnt cry and leave or complain he went out was conducted his business and embraced the situation. He is raw, but the foundation is there for his Offensive game to develop. His shot form is nice, and has a good foundation to build on with his Shot, and his handles can tighten. He has high basketball IQ, and knows where the ball needs to go on Offense, and has a good understanding of help defense. If i'm Mil, SA, GSTATE or those teams mentioned above im thinking low floor i have a good rotational guy that can play defense and maybe hit a bucket or two, high ceiling we have a guy with the size and tools to develop into a multiple tool player. I think he can get in the 1st round.... but if he falls to the 2nd someone is getting a steal.

Gives me some Al Horford vibes

He’s gone for sure, now the only question is after the combine and after workouts is does he start climbing in the 1st round. For me the only shock would be if he doesn’t get drafted. That one clip of him detecting a shot getting the deflection and than going to coast to coast for that dunk shows you all of his versatility. Add to that he’s lost weight so he can play wing in the league, but as he already showed in college he has a great frame to add weight to without losing the explosive ability that he was naturally blessed with. I can see teams in the back of half of the first round takin him and letting him gain some confidence in the G-League. I’m excited for this warriors workout he screams warriors or spurs plug and play guy

I love these additions, this feels like a Big Ten team, a Michigan State style team, imposing physically tough, but none of them are slow plodders, they appear to be athletic, and skilled. We have tough guards that get to the rack. This team is going to be so much fun to watch. Really looking forward to what he can add for the 2020 class.

Hes 6'8/6'9 at 17, could still grow, and is chiseled 260 without having any long-term training in a Elite College weight room, and a summer in a conditioning program...yea i think this is really going to work and he's going to ready to roll next year Day 1, from a Rebounding and Defense standpoint with the offense coming as the season progress. Plus he could be 6'10, 6'11 by the season starting who knows. This is going to be a fun player.

Could develop nicely into a poor mans kawhi Leonard

I could see him with the spurs really well, got a feeling Pop could really use and develop him, plus even though his shot dosnt need a lot of work I could see their shot coach who is elite could help him

Lets get this kid, and get him eligible

I’m completely fine with this lineup, of a bunch of switchable wings and fast guards let’s run teams off the floor and shoot 3’s

that needs to be changed next year, theyre going to continue with the reviews, and my guess theyre just going to keep getting longer.

Im a big fan of unless its egregious, you let it play out, the last 10 seconds are always physical. Yes he may of fouled but to let that call decide the game just sucks. Plus like many of the announcers said, letting the teams come off the floor while they take a millennia to review that out of bounds call needs to be changed, the 3rd ref should have both teams stand as far away from the coaches as possible. Im sad Tennessee lost, i know i should want the BIG10 to win....but i really really cant stand purdue

Which is unfortunate you could talk me into a staff of Lewis as head coach, and retaining gates to keep up the recruiting momentum. I much prefer that over some mid major name. I still much prefer a Thad Matta or maybe see if Shaka Smart wants to come here. I’m not at all excited about a potential of lue or hoiberg.

Some of the older staff don’t follow our policies very well...I’m usually security on the floor so i can’t correct it.

As a person who works security at the arena, I can tell you I hate asking people to take off their hats and unzip their jackets as much as the next person, but those be the marching orders... but if if we’re going full scorched earth I have one long standing request for.... BRING BACK OLD HERBIE YOU COWARDS!! New herbie creeps me out always does

Great Game!! Sidenote: I need that script Nebraska font on a Hoodie stat!

1. as others have said, so happy Nana stayed, he’s a real option off the bench gives us some solid flexiblity as he’s a shooter, but also very athletic and can take it to the rack and get some good boards. 2. Allen is going to hurt some teams feelings this season, you D up on Palmer/Copeland and they find him and he just buries 3’s. 3. I’d like Palmer to take a step back while he figures out his shot ( that hitch is baaaaaddd) and let Roby get some more iso looks. He’s not agressive but we’re also not getting him looks in advantageous positions, he’s more than a rim runner. I want to see him be put in a playmaker spot. Honestly like to see him run some Point -5 when Watson needs a blow.

I think it will come down to 1) how much does Isiah like the college experience, and playing for the university. 2) what his draft guarantee is. some kids really love playing in college and enjoy the experience and you only get it once. If your not guaranteed that nba contract and spot why not use all of your eligibility and bask in the experience; overseas will be there after you graduate... now that being said if he performs up to his talent and expectations and fully takes over this team like he should...yea he’s a lotto pick

regarding Nana- unless he totally changed, he was usually one of the first players out for pregame warmups, and the last player out of the arena after games, he would routinely stay after home games and work on his game, until we shut the lights off in the arena, and than he left.
