In transition, they would be a liability although I'm not sure you need 5 guys in transition. In the half court, TJ would certainly find a way to get the ball to them inside. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

you're right. let's pass on these chaps and let an ACC school scoop up our dregs. Again, i don't think we're anywhere near being picky about which 7 footers we don't want. (NT) -- Alan, Friday, July 23, 01:22:43am

These guys are projects. Bigger schools with bigger recruiting pools can afford to eat a couple of projects that don't pan out. My feeling all along on these two is to watch and see how they develop, but don't fall in love with their size; there are plenty of 7-foot stiffs. (NT) -- Slim, Friday, July 23, 06:15:49am

Sometimes I think: If you can just teach the guy where to be in the paint, with his arms in the air, he will alter a lot of shots and at least make a difference defensively. Of course, there is an answer to this too� jump over the guy (Click here). (NT) -- El Duque, Friday, July 23, 01:42:49pm

I dunno, when I was little, it sure was hard to shoot a basket on the right side of the playground due an overgrown and unpruned tree. No matter the angle, the shot just wouldn't go in. Just saying... (NT) -- P of P, Friday, July 23, 03:38:22pm

Slim, I doubt we have any chance to get him, way too many BCS schools all over him. To your point about waiting on offering prospect, we are not at a point as a program yet where we can wait and offer at the last minute. Someone posted, and I agree, being able to offer early while it is risky is a way to get jump on a prospect before they see the lights on broadway. (NT) -- CLK, Friday, July 23, 08:36:01pm
- I get that...with these two though I think it would be wiser to express "interest" but not offer at this point...too much risk. (NT) -- Slim, Saturday, July 24, 04:01:04am
