Houston has guys that are 6'9" 265lbs, 6'8" 240lbs, 6'7" 235", and 6'7" 230. They also have a skinny 6'10" guy. They can match up with physical teams. When people say traditional center, all they're saying is someone that can be physical near the basket. It doesn't have to be a 7 footer. It has to be a couple guys that can bang down low, rebound against physical teams, and have a little offense in the post. We're not looking for Shaq.

Baylor has guys that are 6'9" 225lbs, 6'10" 230lbs, 7' 230lbs, 6'8" 235lbs, and 6'8" 250.

Alabama has 5 guys on their roster that are at least 6'10". A bunch get double digit minutes and not all of them are shooters. They have options to go big.

Our roster looks nothing like these. We need some guys with some muscle. If they can shoot, great, they're probably elite. If they can't shoot outside 10 ft but do a good impression of Rick Jackson, there is role for them. We can't have a whole roster of those, but a couple let us match up with other big teams.
