Seems a little slim to play SG in the Big East. ;)

That's quite the discrepancy. So, which one is it? 0 or 175 lbs? Both are light, but I just think that at 0 lbs, there is no way he'll be effective. If he's at 0 lbs, he'll need to really work hard to put on some weight.

Maybe that weight listing was not a numerical one, but more of a descriptive nature. Therefore, he may need to lose a few pounds in his midsection.

True but he'd have one heck of a floater ;D

Maybe this recruit is some sort of gaseous form - maybe even a noble gas like Xenon or Helium. Certainly wouldn't have any trouble elevating to the rim if this is the case. Also probably pretty adept at getting through screens and penetrating in the lane.

How many offers does have out there?  25 or 30?  Must be first come first serve.

Guys, no joke, these comments are hilarious.

Passes gas and he's back where he started.

Its been a while since I've taken a math class, but I'm pretty sure his weight wouldn't be tripling  ;)

I usually just average out the reports on weight or height.  So that would put him at about 87.5 pounds.  Very light for a Big East player, but give him a summer in our weight lifting and conditioning program and let's see where he is at... could be that he is lightly recruited due to his lower weight.  Could be a steal.

In Buzz I trust, if he thinks 87 pounds is enough or that he can put on the weight, who am I to question Buzz.  He has earned nothing but blind trust from me.  I though Cubbie and Acker were too short of a back court to win, but Buzz did what he does and just went out and won with the "midgets" (okay, I just offended myself).  Rod Grosse and the 7 foot guy that Majerus recruited were not able to put on the necessary weight, but they didn't have our modern day training program, either.  Add 10 pounds  a month and we'll have a player by his sophomore year as long as he can carry the added bulk.

Does anyone know if his frame looks like it will support the weight?

I can't believe I just spent 5 minutes of my life typing this... what a mistake... can I get the time back?

Not so sure about this. At 0 pounds there are plusses and minuses. The minus would be that he may disappear from games. The plus would be that at 0 he would also be invisible and impossible to defend.

If a tree falls in a forest, does it make a sound?

If a 0 lb SG scores a basket, does it count for a point?

Bad hands though.  Ball seems to go right through them everytime.

Buzz is just balancing out the 4 years of Davante they had to feed. Must be a little short on the food budget.

Here comes another lame comment:

(TEAL) Guys, we should stop these jokes, we don't want to scare him (or his mom) off to another program (TEAL)

In any case, we don't know the scale.  If they are using a proprietary measure of mass, then 0 could equate to 200 pounds.

Okay, sorry.  Two lame comments.
