Let's talk Josh. #FREEJOSH

[Vander Blue Man Group]

I'd like to keep Josh. If he develops he could be a really good piece in two years and we have 15 scholarship guys now. It's the low ceiling guys that I wouldn't mind leaving.

Correct. Absolutely need a good starting big from the portal but I'm fine with Josh staying on and continuing to develop. At least he has the length to be a rim protector in the future.

Do we have a choice? We can't tell him who to play.

Yes. Just because we don't get to make lineup decisions doesn't mean we can't have discussions critical of those decisions.

[Billy Hoyle]

I guess Josh doesn't practice hard enough.

[BM1090]

Right now.  7+ feet and bouncy is always worth a shot.  If he develops, you get McCaskill.  If it doesn't work out you get McMorrow or Mbao.

And he's already ahead of the latter two.

Wasn't super-surprised to not see Clark against DePaul but was quite surprised that Phillips didn't see any action. Was he hurt?

[Markusquette]

Right now.  7+ feet and bouncy is always worth a shot.  If he develops, you get McCaskill.  If it doesn't work out you get McMorrow or Mbao.

Is he bouncy? Seems a bit slow. Definitely a shot blocker potential but not seeing much hope otherwise.

At MU, Jim McIlvaine is considered bouncy.

At this point the answer should be "why not?"  I don't particularly care if we finish last or second to last in the conference.  At the very worst he gets in, is totally outmatched and appears clueless and uncoordinated on both offense and defense, and we give him 12+ minutes a game like Hamilton.

Josh clark and bounce was not the scouting report I was expecting.

[Pakuni]

Right now.  7+ feet and bouncy is always worth a shot.  If he develops, you get McCaskill.  If it doesn't work out you get McMorrow or Mbao.

The difference here is that McMorrow and Mbao played sparingly/never when it became apparent they weren't Big East players, and were quickly and politely shown the door.

I agree he should play. Cant be worse than Hamilton.

That said ... he's clearly not " bouncy "
And ( as one of the Tv guys said ) is about as strong as a blade of grass.

Shaka said he is taller than when he arrived.  Now 7'+ in bare feet, 7'2 in shoes.  245 lbs, which is up 30.  Roo. For 25 more.  Shaka also said that Josh is not a great practice player.
