Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 2165461, member: 40"] Ding, ding, ding. We need Tucker because [1] he is a good fit for a gaping roster hole we have at small forward, [2] because he is a good outside shooter, and [3] because adding a player like him would do wonders for our offensive spacing / half court offense being functional. OF COURSE the program will survive if we don't land Tucker. I think that's where some posters are getting hung up -- that no recruit will make or break us. While that might be true in the big picture, not landing Tucker / a player with Tucker's offensive capabilities would have a huge detrimental impact on next year's season outlook, for a variety of reasons. THAT'S why he's close to a must-get. I wish that weren't the case. I wish we had a guy on the roster like a KrisJo, who could be counted upon to step into a bigger role if the recruit opts to go elsewhere. But I don't believe that either Brissett or Moyer fits that bill, in terms of team need. [/QUOTE]
