Agree about the point of it talking at least a year for a big guy to get comfortable, especially in the zone.

Though I will say if he is a legit shot blocker, that helps overcome inexperience and bad positioning some.  They say he is 7 foot tall and I believe I read he has a 7 foot 7 inch wing span.  If he is reasonably athletic, that is a really nice combo for someone who is 240 pounds.  We haven’t had someone that tall and that heavy since Fab Melo.

Even good defenders like Jesse struggled early.  Compared to an incoming frosh, Quincy would have the advantage of playing against similar sized players in practice every day for 2 seasons.  FSU stocks up 7 footers like I stock ribeyes in the freezer.

Guessing the staff is trying sell him with a pitch like, you will likely be in the rotation and play every game from day one.  Expect 10-15 minutes a game your first season, as you adjust to our defense and offense.

Then you have a shot to start for 2 seasons.
