King has the potential to be a solid MAC defensive player both rebounding and shot blocking. I can remember many of us not thinking Nobles would be that hat and he turned out to a solid contributor although he had the benefit of redshirt year. Premature to judge in my opinion on how good these frosh will be. We can do what we do in football and compliment them with JUCOs and transfers. On paper next year we faced a large senior class (six of them?) so if they all return we'll have a big recruiting challenge for the 2019 class. If we can spread some of that out this year great.

My only comment is that big men develop much slower than perimeter players.

Never give up on a frosh big man unless he can't run and chew gum at the same time. Lol.

Rule of thumb: Don't give up on a player OR a player should not give up on a school until after the soph season.
