I guess 7' = 6'-9"

He's more of an Al body type.  The transfer is more of the Air Craft Carrier that this board is obsessed with.

If Oswin was 7' tall, he wouldn't be at Providence.

My bad - I had both tabs open and didn't copy and paste correctly - yes Oswin is 6 9.

Yep, going back to the discussion of "true" centers, he doesn't really fit the mold. Christ does, also not sure where biz pulled 260 lbs from, looking around I only see either 280 or 285.

That's 2 years old.  Last year St. Joes listed him at 285.

Much more of a "true" center that was the norm until the mid-late 2000s where someone like Mac or Edey could be guaranteed a massive contract just to go out and try to guard Shaq.

Actually, I consider Christ to be more of a point guard, with all of the distributing he did.

If Oswin was 7' tall, he wouldn't be at Providence.

Isn’t Oswin a 2025 kid?  Or did he reclassify?  My only point being that if he is 2025, it’s way too early to worry about matching up with him.

Heard he can play three positions.

Talk about a dad who sticks his nose in everybody’s business. Jesus!

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Caedin Hamilton was listed at 235 this year.  He has a whole off season to bulk up.  Plus you know, he might "shoot up" a couple of inches.

Hamilton was over 300 lbs not that long ago.  They've been bulking him down not up

He was cultivating mass, and is now just harvesting it!

Huh. I would have thought the stigmata would have made his handles a little loose.

Pretty wicked cross-over though

A bit full of himself, though, with that INRI tattoo

One of his teammates didn't like how he was used, so he bailed on him.

Satan sanctioned by the NCAA for tampering with regards to Judas

Brings the term "show cause" to a whole new level.

[GoldenEagles03]

How do we feel about the outside shooting of this team?

Kam- great
Joplin- great at times
Gold- can be good
Ross- can be good
Lowery- ?
Norman- ?
Stevie- hit or miss

Do we need another knock down shooter more than anything?

Could use a PG, but we have options. Could use a Big, but we have options.
But what about that true shooter?

[Its DJOver]

Who cares about outside shooting, how are we at our mid-range jumpers.  Oso's leaving a huge void in that area.
