Purdue7 Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 You see a great defender? I really like his hands and shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jv1972iu Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 This is a four year kid, I think. He's not uber athletic, but he can move...jump some...and evidently make a shot from the arc. Oh, he's 6'11" too. I would happy if IU can sign him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6-foot-10, 215-pound center is molding himself into the ideal modern big man. Defense may be his true calling card. Burgess moves his foot perfectly in the lane and has great spacial awareness to go with even better timing on his blocks."

DC2345 Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Burgess has been described to me as “really good” by somebody that has seen him play multiple times. He would be a great pickup and has been to IU around 6 times already for this keeping track. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always add an inch to their frontcourt players after they commit. Edey was listed at 7'3" when he committed and Matt Haarms was 7'2" and both of them magically grew another inch once they became Boilers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't getting Bidunga to begin with. I think Burgess helps them (in Painter's mind) with their pursuit of Travis Perry, both members of Indiana Elite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had to take one I’d prefer Harris over Perry but they’re both solid options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
