The Harry Froling Era Now Begins

[TSmith34, Inc.]

It's a simple game. You hit the ball, you throw the ball, you catch the ball. You got it?!

Wait...

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Well this thread went to crap.

I just hope he has hops like a kangaroo. 

[MUBigDance]

I'm glad its a mystery....like Star Wars spoilers...don't want to know what FRO can do until the NIU and American games.

[real chili 83]

Bad way.  Unless he has some freaky good move that seems so obvious but works every time and can labeled #theDownUnder

Depends on what part of downunder you are talking about.

I hope he modeled his game after this guy.

[Stretchdeltsig]

I hope everyone realizes he is a below the rim type of player, he will not block many shots and really is not a great rebounder.  He can score and you can not teach
height, he has that.  I expect big things the following 2 years for sure.  He will play the 4 at times, but I think he will be better utilized at the 5 if they change the O
for him at times.  He can go outside, open the lane and be open for a shot.  I am just curious and I would ask Wojo this question.  I can not believe that Matt could not
do the samething.  Never gives him a chance.  Free throw form is really good, and I think he can do more than dunk, lay-ups and a baby hook.  I am sure he practices
shooting from the perimeter, in this generation, they all try.  I hope Morrow is working on that part of his game for next year as well.

How do you know?  Have you watched him play?

[DCHoopster]

How do you know?  Have you watched him play?

Yes. I have seen him play and I have seen videos.   He does not jump well and I would say he is a poor mans Henry Ellenson on overall physical talent.  In the
right situation he can flourish, up to Wojo to see that happens.  Heldt and Harry on the court will not be to good against teams in the Big East, very athletic conference.

Really looking forward to see what HF brings to the table. If what I've read turns out to be true, his shooting will open up driving lanes for strong SA drives, MH floaters and SH short pull ups. SH will really benefit from this and get some solid minutes at the 3. SH will dominate opposing 3s in the post

Looking forward to seeing him play now that he is in shape........

SH = Sam Hauser. HammerScreen = HS.  Who's the biggest Sam fan?  All of us!.....AND Sam's family.  So welcome Hauser kinsman/woman, Sam will be fantastic at MU regardless of who he's on the court with.

Note: if i was a betting man i'd say this is MUFINY's 4th personality

You see Harry in the huddle and he is obviously tall.

I am sick of TV showing our huddle and all Harry is doing is being tall.

Other teams, the tall players are so much more than tall in the huddle. They are motivating their teammates with great motivational motivation.

Our huddles suck. First Wojo's cliches, now Harry's tallness. Sucky!

There's a link in there to another pretty good article:

Not good!

Froling's diet followed suit. He told a story of how he once ate a tube of Pringles for breakfast, so that was clearly a part of his life he knew he needed to alter.

Froling looked solid at practice today.  Harry and Sam battled one another extremely hard, and Harry held his own on both ends of the floor.  I would expect him to get as many, or more, minutes as Matt for the remainder of the season.  Incidentally, Theo continues to improve at a steady rate, as well.  If he can play without being in foul trouble, he will be very productive.  He had another man-sized block (similar to the one he had at Madison), and his offensive moves are very fluid for a man his size.  He is strong, athletic and skilled.

With Harry being immediately inserted into the lineup, and Theo demanding more minutes with his play, Sam will be pushed down to the 3 on a fairly regular basis.  Of course, somebody has to lose minutes.  My guess is those minutes will have to come from Matt and Sacar.   

Also, the Froling family was in attendance today, including Harry's younger brother Sam.  Sam is a senior in HS, and according to his father is currently visiting a number of schools.  He said, MU is full at Sam's position, and so MU isn't a possibility, but he is considering Creighton, Colorado, and others.  Dad was wearing a Colorado sweatshirt and Sam was wearing Australia National Team sweats. Sam appears to be just as tall as Harry and friendly with the MU players, however we won't be seeing that brother connection at MU, according to dad. 

Starting this week, we are immediately a bigger and better team.

Very much appreciated.  I think that Harry's time at SMU should be discarded as an indicator of what to project moving forward.  Coaching turmoil just after he arrived didn't do anything for him.

Greatly appreciated, 94. These kind of posts are the reason I read Scoop.

[4everwarriors]

'Harry held his own'  , hey?

[lohaus]

Literally what are you talking about, Heldt is solid on D

I'm talking about a 6'10" Heldt that turns his shoulder away when guys come to dunk instead of hacking the $hit out of a guy and preventing the dunk.

Thanks a lot for this detailed update, 94.

Really looking forward to seeing Harry play. One sign that we actually are an improving team will be if Heldt's minutes go down to the 15-ish range.
