Art Vandalay Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 (edited) Great job by the staff getting him. His junior year highlights / stats when he was healthy are pretty nice. 9 pts, 8rbs, 2blocks, 70%+ fg%. Those stats are very comparable to Cliff Omoruyi or Aidoo from Tennesse and people would be jumping for joy if we got them. Happy about this one for sure.

Swan88 Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 Here's a paragraph from a Washington basketball site called "Huskieswire": "Meah’s loss is a big one for Washington’s frontcourt, as he was an integral piece of the team’s defense under coach Mike Hopkins. Over his two years with the Huskies, he averaged 7 points and 6.2 rebounds per game while also recording 77 blocks." Art Vandalay 1 Quote

Absolutely not a Walker/Mast stretch 5 guy, or a guy to put it on the floor and drive. It's all drop down's and lobs. But he plays hard, knows his role, has great instincts on drives, etc... UConn had that dude Samson Johnson who would come in for 10-15 minutes and basically dunk the ball, grab a few boards, block a few shots and make a few fouls. At worst, Meah can offer that for us. He is an explosive jumper for his size. Worster is an elite passer. I can see a couple pick and roll lob dunks coming every game. I like this addition a lot, assuming he is not in our starting lineup. Edited April 30 by GhostOfJoeMcCray basketballjones, cornfed24-7, Montana_85 F and 1 other 4 Quote
49r Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 Interesting that we have two former Pac-12 rivals and an Iowa and a Wisconsin guy all coming in to play for us next year. I wonder if this will be the most "we used to be rivals and now we're teammates" team in the country next season? SkersHoops and Silverbacked1 2 Quote

We might be the most booed team on the road in conference games. And, we still have two more scholarships available. CanadianHusker and Silverbacked1 1 1 Quote
Cazzie22 Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 Don’t know much about Meah but if he is a fit then it’s all good. Quote
basketballjones Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 This addition is like if you took everything Allick did sneaky and unexpectedly well, and eliminated them, BUT, then took the things we needed Allick to do well, and exaggerated them. OurDecay, millerhusker, HuscurAdam and 1 other 1 3 Quote

huskerbill85 Posted May 1 Report Posted May 1 When's the last time we had a rim protector? I think that really stood out as a weakness in the tournament game for example Quote

Not sure when the last time was we could roll out 2 6’10” plus guys and 4-5 6’6” plus guys was Not all at the same time, mind you. That'd be 7 guys on the court to "roll out..." Quote
