GATA

A lot of times, 7-footers are the slowest players to develop. The speed of the game is much faster, big men are much bigger and stronger men. This year gives Vucetic a chance to play now and work through his growing pains on team with low expectations. I don't think we'd have the luxury next season. This kid wasn't a McDonald's All-American, so anyone who thought he'd look great right away probably had their expectations set too high. He's going to be a much better player one year from today.

Gotcha, thanks for the response.

I haven't seen the game and am only looking at the box score, but what made Biggs jump out to you guys? His numbers were pretty terrible, so I'm assuming he simply passed the eyeball test.

Thanks for posting this, fellas. Can't wait to see the game for myself Friday morning.

I'm not gonna pretend to know more about these guys than our coaching staff, all I want is a power forward in the 2013 class. I trust this coaching staff will find a good player.

That stinks. He was the player I was most excited to see this season. I'm hoping he can develop into a solid B10 starter in time.

Hopefully it's not because they're worried about Webster flipping to another school.

Seems like Miles would really like a Juco PF to balance out the classes. I can't say that I blame him. He does seem to have a good amount of upside, albeit raw upside.

Moore commited to SMU today. He was a late-blooming power forward out of Chicago who we got in on late, according to a report in a Chicago online publication. On to the next power forward prospect...

He's gonna be a tough get. He's taking an unofficial visit to Kansas and he's already been talking with Roy Williams at North Carolina. He has the potential to be a top-25 recruit.

Well said. It's not like Miles doesn't want the best possible players. Sometimes, unfortunately, you have to settle for Plan Es, Fs and Gs.

You might not remember the Huskers in the Big Dance, but you remember a heckuva player who led them there. You picked a good one for your avatar.

I have a real hard time thinking a recruit would truly make his decision based on something he read from a fan or two on a messageboard.

So when a recruit visits this board to see what people are saying about him, he won't see anything, as if we don't care about him or other recruits? I love everything about the new board, but that one doesn't make a ton of sense to me.

20 points a night might be a little ambitious, considering only one player (John Shurna at 19.8) was really close to that. However, I'd be more than happy if he was 15-16 point-per-game scorer. I know Spencer was around that, but he was such a high-volume, inefficient scorer that it wasn't a "good" 15 a game. I like Fuller and Hawkins as floor spacers who can allow Webster to attack the lane while also being double-digit scorers.

No stars according to ESPN and Rivals, but that doesn't necessary mean a lot. Offers from Memphis, K-State and Marquette suggest that he's a player.

Changed my handle from eaglenole to GATA. Couldn't pass it up. Love the new name. Also, each time I try to add a photo to my avatar it says the photo is too big. Anyone know how to change the size of a photo without using photoshop?
