Be a Hero Today.... Adopt a Shelter Pet... The Beatles once sang "Can't Buy Me Love"... I disagree, unconditional Love can be bought, for the nominal adoption fee at your local Pet Shelter !

Can you say "red shirt"? 6'9" and 205 lbs, and only averaging 6..8 ppg (as a Junior) screams red shirt to me.

Had to first watch some film. But I agree 100%. A Rivals 3 star kid that needs work. Also unimpressed by the school’s recruiting him. Avg jumping ability generally a lack of athleticism. A project for sure.

Is that a joke ? One article mentions he’s the #1 recruit in Wisconsin for the 2019 class and is a 4star recruit. He was offered by Wisconsin and about a dozen big 10, ACC & big east schools. During the top 100 camp (best 100 kids in the country ) he played more then almost anyone because of his iq, rebounding and facilitating. He is not a volume scorer but he does everything else at an extremely high level. He doesn’t need the ball in his hand to make his presence felt and help his team which is amazing and hard to find.

No joke. Go to YouTube and watch his highlights. He’s avg at best. Unless that’s old film he needs a redshirt. If he’s #1 recruit in Wisconsin then they have no talent. He’s listed as a 3 star on Rivals. Thats unimpressive in my opinion.

His numbers look bad but I’m not sure how you can say that the schools recruiting him is unimpressive

I will agree he definitely could bulk up a bit, but Anthony Davis isn’t the thickest dude alive either and is rather effective.

If you read the article, he's got some skills we can really use. He's a facilitator. He doesn't even consider himself a scorer. He's liked for his other skills, rebounding, offensive rebounding, assists, blocks. He's not going to put up 30 and 10 like Davis. As one of the articles called him, he's a stat sheet filler. Think Draymond Green. Not that level of player I assume, and maybe not the attitude, but the kind of player that is always around the ball.

This is certainly one you'd like to redshirt but we are so desperate to have some size he'll have to play. Hope he works out.
