10-12 points a game, 7-9 rebounds a game and 3-4 blocks a game is what I am expecting and should be doable....Should not be out of reach at all with this guys talent, if he puts in the work.....MR is an unreal talent that is continuing to grow, he grew 2 inches since last summer and is now 7-1...While raw he should have no problem putting up that stat line vs. CUSA teams especially....Non conference, depends on matchups, and yes he will have some issues with people who are stronger than him, but so does a lot of freshmen...If you guys are seriously expecting another Lawson, be prepared to be extremely disappointed...

Personally, I believe you are asking too much of him. I just think he's too raw to put that up. He really doesn't know how to play basketball right now, using his physical tools for alley oops and put backs. Its going to take time to learn to play in half court sets that most teams will make him play. Maybe Im wrong, but I just think that is too high of expectations for a freshman like him.
