I think he's a little further ahead of where we thought he would be. He makes some freshman mistakes as should be expected, but he plays hard and might have more skills than most big men we've had in past years. I look for him to eventually be a very solid player for us. Smart. Good character. I believe he'll set a good example for our other young players and those yet to come, academically as well as basketball wise. He should be an emotional leader by his junior season.

He's ahead of where I thought he would be, because I thought he would redshirt.

I did also until one of the coaches told me before the season that he would play, not redshirt.
