Message: [QUOTE="Francis03, post: 1639117, member: 195"] Interesting thing I noticed when watching prospects like Thompson and Cosby-Roundtree. Both guys are basically Power Forwards, but while neither are stiffs athletically they don't really move great laterally. So obviously that would make them liabilities to cover the wings and basically limit them to mainly playing in the middle of the zone. Duke, UK, KU and other top programs have no problem adding multiple high rated big men to their rosters every year despite how the depth charts are looking. Cuse 91 makes a good point above about recruits being cautious about JB's short rotation. On the flipside it's funny how Bill Self(who might land a top 25 big man later tonight) always find a way to land the 5 star ones while routinely keeping them on the bench in their freshman year like Cliff Alexander and Cheick Diallo.
