Compromise elsewhere. Boar's Head.

In all seriousness, I agree. Unfortunately, there has been a glaring deficiency in his/his staff's ability to develop well rounded big men- not an easy task. Personally, I think Pecora did a better job in this area. Should have gotten more out of Rok.
Who did Pecora develop?

Where is this kid rated a four star? He looks like he needs a good meal.

4 star or not, someone like that who is big, athletic, and can change shots would help out their defense immensely.

A major waste who transferred in after getting in trouble at UCONN and who didn't play one second for us! Anyone else??

Impressed or not we would take him here in a heartbeat I'm sure. He would contest some shots in the paint and give us some scoring and have 4 years to develop!

As much as I get on him for some in game decisions, JM has a pretty good sense as to who can play and who cannot.

I'd much rather play small (4 guards and a stretch 5) than get a big stiff out there who is a liability

Don't think much scoring is coming from this guy...looks very unpolished and would get pushed around. Might block some shots- probably would have a hard time staying on the court

Joe JAM has had hits and misses with his recruiting. Some misses that come to mind are Walker Wormley angus Ty Greer. Also we wasted a scholly on Djambo who never set foot on the court

I'll agree Greer a miss but Angus. Before he was hurt basically played at a level consistent with what he did his entire college career. As for Wormley played better the latter part of the season certainly the jurors out on him. There r people out there that didn't think Walker was ever developed right here and thought he could have made more of an impact. Everyone has their own opinion and a lot of people threw Buie under the bus including me until he was able to get out of the dog house in the latter part of the year. As for Djambo whatever happened with him not playing for personal reasons is not on Joe.

Right, are we forgetting the end of the CofC game disaster just a few months ago??

I hear we're going after a big man from Philly: Wilt de Stilt. Maybe we can make some inroads there.
