So much of this thread is puzzling to me.  We have a top ten class, there are quality bigs available which is a need of this team.  Why are we not pursuing another Big besides Roberts?  Please help me understand:

1. We would recruit Nate Roberts, but not pursue the other available bigs that are rated higher?
2. Moyer can man the middle in lieu of Chukwu or Sidibe???
3. We would rather sign a grad transfer (that we do not know will be available or willing) when there are bigs right now that are uncommitted and rated higher than Roberts?

I've yet to have anyone satisfactorily explain the lack of interest in any big besides Nate.  It's not a lack of confidence in anyone in particular on the roster.  But quality 4/5 depth is a concern if we are seriously thinking Moyer can man that position.  Chukwu and Sidibe might do a fine job, or they may struggle.  Both are unknown commodities, given that Sidibe is a freshman, and Chukwu played very little last year due to his eye injury.

I think JB and staff have done an amazing job with this recruiting class.  But I want another ring for JB, and a parting middle finger for his farewell tour.  We need to keep this positive momentum going.  If there is a reason for putting on the breaks, I'd love to know it...
