Frankly, I'm very intrigued by BJJ.  It seems likely he'll grow another inch to... 6'8" or 6'9", depending on your source.  He clearly can shoot from range.  Fairly athletic.  Good length / wingspan.  Appears to have a handle.  Perhaps most important, his work ethic and BB savvy are exceptional based on most reports.
 
This is the kind of guy that JB & Co. excel at maximizing.  I honestly can't come up with an accurate past player comparator - which is why I'm most curious to see how BJJ develops.
 
I'll expound further: one of the joys (IMO) of CBB is watching players develop.  Of course FF4s and titles are the ultimate yardstick, but from a fan's perspective when you "bond" with the program based on the development of the players and the continued excellence of the program it means a lot.  You can point to several programs that are objectively superior based on tourney performance, but I challenge anyone to find a school that is as [I]rewarding[/I] to fans of the program as S.U. has been over the past thirty-plus years.
