Yep I saw that. I was just wondering if there were any updates since that.

 

[Jake]

He’s awkwardly efficient. Like the way he uses his body to get space and position. Not uber skilled, but he’s the kind of guy that’s killed us historically.

 

[FloridaCuse]

As Gavin Doty once said, screw Duke

I think the word started with another letter.

 

[FloridaCuse]

One thing you will get from Gavin is leadership. He has that gene - something we haven’t had here in too long.

a future Captain of the team? [do they have them in CBB?]

played 9 games last year for Siena and had procedures on both knees...

looking at his game log from last season, best team he played was st bonaventure - in 35 mins had 4 points on 2 of 9 shooting...

I hope this long streak of orange bigs with potato knees ends now and he has a great season...but until proven otherwise, Im not counting on goodrick for next season...and i think penciling him in for anything other than 3rd center is big time risky in a roster build, for multiple reasons

i really dont expect him to play a big role...do you?!?!

and yeah I follow su basketball...but dont follow ncaabb in general very closely...is that what you meant to say...?because otherwise...wassup

If you aren’t familiar with the roster, you aren’t much of a fan. No reasonable person will disagree on that.

So note I was correcting your basic lack of knowledge, not extolling virtues of players. But since you asked, I think Tas is an upgrade on Souare as a backup center. Just as Siby is an upgrade over Diawara.

Hopefully we get Wilson, who I think would be about the same as Kyle. Maybe a slight upgrade. Not going to spend a lot of time comparing players and reviewing film though until/unless Wilson verbals here.

Slight to modest upgrade over Kyle and not to put down Kyle. Wilson is not getting pushed around down low, and and bully his man in the low post. Kyle was our most impactful player if not best player in quite a few games so getting even a small upgrade would be a huge win.

This would be a nice pivot after losing out on Owen Freeman

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Nice piece of tape. This guy looks like he has a healthy appetite. Hopefully he doesn't get on a plane tomorrow without a folded up check in his pocket.

 

[Orangezoo]

So just now need someone closer to the situation to stop by with the we are good here news ..

update. A quick Google search shows that Alex Karaban was the Captain of UConn.

You could argue they’re just about equal…

[Biaxtar]

On3 prediction to Syracuse.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

That’s not the San Diego I know

I should have put that into context. Relative to the two other US cities I could live in, it’s ’tame’ and doesn’t have what I need. Relative to the rest of the country, it’s pretty niiice.

Third place nationally ain’t bad.

 

[sufan59]

AO appears to be getting a guy with his type of game to develop and I’m so excited to see what happens!

Wilson looks a lot like jimmy boeheim.

Wilson looks a lot like jimmy boeheim.

Wow, he really does

 

[RF2044]

Who said that?

THEY did.

Expect some noise soon here

Expect some noise soon here

Any hints we might still be guard hunting once we get locked down at the 5? Not the d2 kind that is lol

 

[sufan59]

Like tomorrow morning or tonight?

Yes, we will be for sure.
