Nope, they don't say that, and your're not recovering from your dumb post this easy. Scarlet letter

If he's the #2 depth center then I'm all for this...I really hope this isn't our starter though. We're going to need more from a starter than someone who barely played at UCLA

This. Need a big man with some range or passing ability.

 

[pwong]

Maybe we got him for “cheap”

I don’t know if thats the case, the big man transfer market is so expensive.

 

[Dcuse]

If he's the depth Center #2, im all for it. Can't be the starter though. Great pickup for depth!

What???

Heard we got him for $700k. Prices for players has gone crazy since schools are able to pay.

The guy was one of the top transfers last year. He got hurt early at UCLA and never consistently kicked it into high gear. Amazing how you have labeled him a backup before he steps foot on campus.

I hope that wasn’t the price..

Rim wrecker, Rim Protector, Athlete extraordinaire!!!

But he’s a $700,000.00 backup.

 

[pearl31]

I hope that wasn’t the price..

You mean you really hope the marketplace isn't such to make that price the reality of doing business right now?

 

[Janner]

I'd be surprised if he is coming here to be the back up.

 

[Madbiker]

Hopefully he's the backup center. But I doubt it.

 

[sufan59]

I hope that wasn’t the price..

I’m pretty sure the budget is significantly bigger, like maybe 4x as big as it was this season. So when you put that into perspective, 700k kind of checks out.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

I hope that wasn’t the price..

Inflation is a B.

And that means he can pull a Lampkin and ask for more money next week when he gets higher offers.

 

[orangefog]

But he’s a $700,000.00 backup.

We have dough, let it go
I copyright that bar

 

[pearl31]

He won't be the scorer or passer Lampkin was but man talk about a defensive uograde

 

[Jake]

I can’t express how important having a legit shot blocker helps the entire defensive structure.

Love this pick up.

1st kid from Nebraska?

 

[Jasoncuse]

Pretty good size and really nice athleticism. I’m not sure he has any offensive game outside of dunks, but when he played, he was active and could make some things happen. I dont think he’s a true center but may have to be here.

It’s a bit concerning how little he played after moving up from South Dakota st though. I really hope the plan is to still being in another C that should expect 20-25 mins a game. Kyle will help but I think he’s a more souped up Petar than he is starting 5, though it’s possible he was underused at UCLA.

Have we ever had a player from Nebraska?

Love this pick up.

The dude is an A+ athlete, that means blocked shots, offensive rebounds and putbacks. It's huge.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

One of the top transfer before last season. Was the defensive player of the year as a sophomore. It seems like a good chance Kyle is a starter and gets 25 minutes a game. I still believe Donnie is going to play some minutes as the “center”. Plus if Kyle stinks we can yell GD Kyle in a Cartman voice.

 

[djcon57]

Huge to have a defensive center again
