First of all, there's a steep learning curve for the position. Second, 6'8 is just not tall enough ... CM's the better fit as a backup to DC2/Chino. In fact, if Diagne can get out on shooters and pinch in to help when the center has to move up (to stop a penetrator), then I like his size at the 4... Regardless, we're going to have at least 3 front line players (DC2, CM and Diagne) with good size to rotate in there. Chino can also help in the middle. So I don't think we're depleted as we were this year. And unless we're playing a power team, Tyler can certainly help us in there at the 4. I would still love having TB. But I know the scholarship sanction is going to make it difficult or impossible to bring him in unless the Ayatollahs at the NCAA's trim back on the sanctions on appeal. [/QUOTE]
