a big guy with an inside game on offense
Rak worked his butt off in the summer before his senior year. It paid off.Remember the years that we had 2 post players! (Arinze and Rick)
Rak is the only post player we have had since them, and he only excelled for one year.
in multiple ways...see current events...Rak worked his butt off in the summer before his senior year. It paid off.
As always, disagree with the assessment of Rak wholeheartedly and I will forever feel the need to state that. He could have contributed earlier.
And JB even said so early in his Senior year ---- (I ascribe to the "JB says random crap" philosophy, but some people love the JB assessments...so I'll include it) --- that he could have given more on offense, but we didn't need him to as a Junior because of our offense...so, yeah.
Rak didn't becomeserviceablea force until his senior year. We can't forget that for the first three years people were pulling their hair out over the player he was. He didn't turn it on until he had one year left. I just want a big that can contribute on both ends of the floor. Is that too much to ask?
