Subject: The presence of Bethel and Evertson makes this a moot point for discussion. Binns will certainly compete for PT but Osei will drop to about 9th -11th guy on depth chart.

  • RB is correct. Binns (6'7''/ 225) and Osei (6'5"/ 215) are different kinds of ballplayers, but its more like comparin' apples and lemons. Osei is a smarter player, better ball handler, has a good outside shot (although Binns thinks he can drain 'em from downtown), and is more proficient at the charity stripe. With The Moosh headin' back to The Land of Milk and Honey, Binns, while being physically stronger than Osei, will still have to beef up a bit, and play a much smarter inside game, to help out BD under the boards. New ramlets Luke Devine (6'10"/ 235), Demetrius Phillips (6'8"/ 210), Chris Bethel (6'5"/ 210), and BC transfer, Devon Evertsen (6'6"/ 205), will give this young team more muscle than they have had in recent years, with a scoring punch that will surprise many. The team now has depth, and will not run out of gas against top D-1 competition. Coach Whitt has done his homework. (NT) -- Bronx Boy, Tue March 15, 2005 14:00:55
  • All true with one exception - Osei is 6' 3" at best. Next season will be very interesting. (NT) -- Rambacker, Tue March 15, 2005 21:56:39
  • RB and BB - you are both correct. The comparison is a bit of a stretch. I was just comparing them based on this year and the lack of depth we had coming off of our bench. Osei seemed like the smarter player. Probably because he had a year in the system vs. Binns first season. Binns was just frustrating to watch in the GW game and I think Osei could have provided a much bigger spark. As for next year they will both be struggling for time thanks to Bethel and Everston. It sounds like those guys will step in right away - if not start. At least we have a nice problem with this depth and my question is really concerning who will be the 7th, 8th or 9th guy getting into the game - so in essence the question is moot.
