Nike said he was 202, KD says he was 209 so one of them is wrong. There is no reason for the school to list him at 195. Also, he will still be high school age this year. Nothing changes that.
Strange
Point taken. Nike and KD also say that he is 6'7 though.
Maybe he's really 6'4 7/8" like Batman was when he needed to be.
Whatever height and weight he is, there is nothing to dispute the fact that we are very short and very light up front. We are going to have to get very lucky with either Marshall or Hawkins.

All you have to do is blank the names out and leave the accomplishments in and ask what are expectations for this roster in the American Athletic Conference next season.
The fact that most are predicting doom and gloom for Pastner says all you ever need to know.
We have one power forward on the roster; a 17 year old who is 6'8 and weighs 195 pounds, who should be in his last year of high school. The only other power forward on the roster; Hawkins isn't medically cleared to play.

The point is you don't need a fourth true big...You can fill the spot will Small Forwards in spot minutes.
Again, I could never come up with something this funny
Who is the 4th BIG on that 13-14 team...And Nick King is not a big per your standards.
Nick King is not a big by my standard, but he is bigger than KJ and a lot bigger than Burrell. Two other factors that are much more important. One, Pellom lost a lot of his effectiveness when he was injured. Two, when you talk about expectations, it is obvious that even if the front lines are comparable, our guards aren't as good as they were in 2014.
We got outmuscled quite a bit and that front line was bigger than this year's.
True...The guards are going to be the reason we do not succeed...We have enough in the frontcourt to succeed.
And lets be honest none of the guards on that 14 team lit the world on fire.
Hey it is good to be reminded that you were right and funny that someone was arguing the strongest point of our team would be our weakness.
