50" vertical?
You telling me this guy can flatfoot jump over a 2nd grader?
Let's go!! 6'08... awesome. Buzz Williams is no longer our coach
5 players 6-7 or taller
7-0: Wessler
6-8: Poteat, Lawal, Jones
6-7: Burnham
Also two 6-5 or taller players.
That's 7 players taller than the starting "Center", that year our tallest "big" was 6-5
This guy is a dude!
He averaged 7.7ppg, 6 rpg, shot 67% from the field. 6'8 200 lb forward will bring significant athleticism to the front court. Played about 19 minutes per game. Shot 43% from outside but rarely shot it. Time on floor was limited sometimes with foul trouble but plays very aggressive defense.
HS HUDL Profile
So Lynn Kidd with more athleticism.
Little smaller but more athletic than Kidd. Definitely better defender.
I am hoping he is our next Mutts.
That gives 11 on the roster.
Cs: Wessler, Poteat, Jones
Fs: Lawal, Burnham, Johnson
Gs: Miller, Brown, Ivy-Curry, Rechsteiner, Young
We have 2 scholarships remaining
Did Mike young recruit a....*gulp*...athlete!? Well awwww beee
I will choose to be happy about this news.
Your dedication to optimism has been a genuine anchor of positivity during this turbulent offseason.
The demise of Mike Young has been greatly exaggerated.
Ehh demise is a strong word, but things were looking pretty bleak 2-4 weeks ago.
50 in vertical?
You beat me to it. Thank You. This was my 1st thought also.
More of this please!
He did have a running start.

I thought The Key Play was an anagram website. Have you cleared this comment with Gobble Gobble Chumps?
But what size gloves does he wear?
Deron is that you? ๐
LSU Tyrus Thomas vibes.
Force of habit had me reading that backwards and getting mad.
Lawal ubiot?
Force of habit had me seeing this thread getting revived and assuming we got Jordan Ivy-Curry'ed...and therefore getting mad.
Happily surprised!
Same, I saw the post and went DAMMIT WHO DID WE LOSE THIS TI---oh nice
I read "has withdrawn" and started going into a rage
He's going to be a fan favorite, Deron Washington 2.0.;
