Report reply Fullbacksympathy 2,343 Posted June 5, 2024 Great get and fans will love this kid’s motor. He is very similar to Gary in being a special perimeter defender for his size and he has elite speed for a big. Should be elite in rotations. He’s a little light but a very physical player. Offensively he’s solid as well—pretty versatile. Good high release. His weight prevents him from being a great rebounder but he’s not bad there either. He 100% fills the 4 spot for depth. It’s gonna suck to be the opposing team’s 4 and think you are getting a break with Gary on the bench only to bring in another dog to fight you. We’ll be relentless at that spot. Love this pickup. I think we get that win we all have been waiting for next season. I’ve never made that prediction before. It’s a hell of a roster.

Expand I think they're still riding on the 2022-2023 season where injuries "ruined their tournament run". And then saw a max exodus to the draft and transfers the next season. So to them it was just a "down year". Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Love your enthusiasm, but before you get too excited I want to point out that Torvik has us slotted right now at #11 in the Big Ten for next year (at #42), right behind #10 Wisconsin (#43). https://www.barttorvik.com/trankpre.php?conlimit=B10&state=All&year=2024&sort= We may have improved our roster some this offseason (hard to tell for sure though really until we've played a few games) but so has everyone else in the league pretty much. To see an 18 team league with the lowest ranked team sitting at #77 is pretty wild honestly. It's looking like the Big Ten and SEC are going to be by far and away the toughest hoops leagues in the nation next year.
