Center is problem #1

Come on man. You troll quite a bit. A lot of your posts are made with the intent to provoke. That’s fine but own it.

+1000...sorry MU82, but this is true...look at how many of your posts take "veiled" shots at me in particular...at least own up to it.

I admitted that I sometimes "throw out a silly/snide/sarcastic one-liner." I admit they might be 2-liners or 3-liners when I'm feeling especially goofy.

But I don't think I've left much doubt about my basic belief that Wojo has done a good job and that I think he will get us where we want/need to go.

Everything I said in the long post here is how I honestly feel.

I resent this, guru. Most of my shots at you aren't veiled at all!

someone said it earlier and i apologize for not giving them direct kudos, but wherever the post was...if theo improves from soph. to junior year as much as he did from freshman to soph., i'm real good with that. 

   i think the refs are a little "hair pin trigger" with the whistle on theo.  he did start out the year flexing a little over guys just to send notice.  well the refs noticed and so did the coaches.  he did reel it in but the refs still have that old vision of him stuck in their heads. he gets more phantom fouls (including an unjust ejection) because refs are intimidated by his physique.  they need to make each call(or non-call) on their own merit irrespective of what he has done in his past unless it was something flagrant.

  one stat this is difficult to measure, unlike rebounds and points is how many shots were changed and/or how many drives were prevented from even happening. 

  theo(and ed) are MU's tough guys.  maurice lucas tough?  no f' ing way, but that's not fair.  they are 2019 tough guys.  ed has got to go STRONG to the hole and put the defender's arm through the hoop with his throw-downs.  theo's got to give the refs flowers before the game, then go out and kick some a$$

  i think we will be ok at the 5.  would(will) be good to see ike press them for p.t.

Looking ahead, we'll need to bring in another big man or two.

I think we'll be okay for 2019-20. But we may not have as much depth -- depending on whether Ike is healthy and ready to contribute, or if a grad transfer pops up. We've seen what happens when Theo and Ed both get into foul trouble. (We can't afford either of those guys to get injured, either.) Then we'll likely need to find someone who can contribute right away in the 2020 class once Ed moves on.

You almost can't have enough big men or point guards (good ball handlers in general) on the roster.

Wojo has been targeting 2020 bigs.    Dainja, Garcia.   I haven't given up on Ike.   Supposedly, before the Murray State game, he was participating in pre-game drills, closing out on shooters.
