He seems to be more of a stretch 4 not much of rebounder if they were to get him I think they still need a big that can rebound block some shots

Yeah it doesn’t seem that Gates is too concerned with traditional. He seems to look for players who create mismatches. Strong guards, bigs who can shoot, tweeners who are athletic enough to guard small and big enough to play down low, etc. That’s why you seem him mix and matching his lineup so much. Honestly, at this level where you’re rarely (if ever) going to land the 4 (or 5) star talent, that’s probably a smart strategy. You get better players than their rankings would indicated - players who are overlooked because of their short comings. But then when supplemented with the other players who create matchup problems on the roster you can hide the deficiencies and capitalize on the strengths. When coupled with high basketball IQ, toughness and a positive attitude, you get the results we’ve had recently.

He's got pretty good form on his shot. 6'10" guys who can shoot threes are highly desired and he looks athletic. Maybe he's looking for some skill improvement from Coach Summers. Would be a nice one to have.

He looks like a guy I’d love to have on our roster. A taller and more athletic Greene.
So he’s been at Utah Valley, BYU and now this Juco? What is he eligibility-wise? I’m guessing a red shirt sophomore and he used his one time Covid bonus year to go Juco? Because from what I can tell he was at Utah Valley as a freshman in 18-19, BYU as a red shirt while sitting out for the old transfer rule in 19-20, then BYU again as a RS Sophomore in 20-21. In most cases that would exhaust his Juco eligibility.
