There is nothing wrong with @BornHoosier's thoughts or concerns. TBH, I kind of question Woody's selection here myself. At the end of the day, I put my trust in CMW's decisions.

Of course there are questions about how he will do...but his size is a question? Surely you gist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Garza and Cockburn look like MEN to me and this guy does not for whatever it's worth. Maybe a little scarred from previous 7' prospects that played 5' 10"! I've seen what 275lbs can do at this level, show me that 250lbs is not a doormat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have missed seeing Cockburn and Garza in the portal. Great point 13thetc... Never even considered this a depth move for whatever reason scratching my head.

There a few that might not like this addition, but overall I think most are pretty happy to add a 7ft big. He probably won't start but I would say he will get quite a few minutes for the Hoosiers this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am more hopeful that he will be a good addition,,,we need his height and overall size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
