There’s no way JB truly believes that. He even stumbled over the words.Seems like a solid enough passer from what I’ve seen?

In terms of rebounds per 40 minutes, Jesse Edwards has improved by about 50% this season compared to his first three seasons. I'm sure there are others.I cant ever remember seeing a kid significantly improve their rebounding. Shooting yes. D yes,
Ball handling and rebounding are two areas that are hard to improve. Buddy did a good job on his handle and D. But as to rebounding i cant name a forward that really improved much.
Centers yes. That is why i said forwards. Cant really think of one that started off as poor a rebounder as Bell and had great improvementIn terms of rebounds per 40 minutes, Jesse Edwards has improved by about 50% this season compared to his first three seasons. I'm sure there are others.

Pretty sure he thinks about that decision a lot especially after Cole said he was willing to come back this year. Jim made the best recommendation for Cole.Maybe if you had hit the portal for a forward,, you wouldn't be hurting so bad at the forward position. Or, you could have encouraged Cole to come back.
No. Im saying that personally i dont recall any of our forwards making great improvements in rebounding. Centers usually take the longest to develop.That’s kind of an odd take. You’re saying only a certain position can improve at a certain skill. Seems far fetched. What would be the reason that centers can become better rebounders but forwards can’t?
I meant forwards that have improved alotNo. Im saying that personally i dont recall any of our forwards making great improvements in rebounding. Centers usually take the longest to develop.
Im sure we have had centers that have significantly improved as rebounders i just dont remember any.
I'm pretty sure he already has at least one. At least that's what it appears. Might be time for an upgrade.The biggest thing I got from this press conference is JB needs some hearing aids!
I wish we would try something like this. Get back to having a lot of length up top. I like when we put Taylor up top too. With Joe and Judah not too many minutes up there but long term it might make more sense.Why don’t they just put Bell up top in the zone?
He’s had them for years. Honestly he doesThe biggest thing I got from this press conference is JB needs some hearing aids!
He needs to change the batteries.He’s had them for years. Honestly he does
He needs to change the batteries.
He literally said “I’m old!”I hate to laugh about it but it plays right into the get off my lawn stereotype when he angrily yells at the media that he can’t hear and to speak louder
I'm sure I can find SU forwards who improved significantly as rebounders. Seems like an odd stand to be taking. Some players certainly have an instinctive feel for rebounding and show up with that skill fully-formed, but many others do develop and improve over time, and I don't think a player's position on the court has much to do with it.Centers yes. That is why i said forwards. Cant really think of one that started off as poor a rebounder as Bell and had great improvement
And that he's thinking about where/what he wants to eat after the games.The biggest thing I got from this press conference is JB needs some hearing aids!
Honestly, Bell has played a little over 200 minutes of college basketball; to declare him a lost cause as a rebounder seems silly, particularly given his size and athleticism.Centers yes. That is why i said forwards. Cant really think of one that started off as poor a rebounder as Bell and had great improvement
With an 8 oclock game you know he already hit the early bird specialAnd that he's thinking about where/what he wants to eat after the games.
That would have been selfish and very poor form. Whatever his warts, it seems that JB has the long term best interests of his players at heart and let’s that guide his advice about turning pro.Or, you could have encouraged Cole to come back.
