You really do not expect guys who are 260# to run the floor well. That is not their role. You do hope, however, that they have a quick first step, because if they do, they can do a lot of damage inside by getting position. It appears that Big Mike does have fairly quick feet. I don't recall that Bails did. But I haven't seen them as much as some of you. Is my recollection correct?

Marlon looks like a different person than when he arrived on Campus. Joe Kleine told me he has lost 22 pounds since getting here.

Even at that, he is still a solid lad.

He might be one of the biggest surprises of this year's recruiting class.
I think he has some nice skills to go with a big body and a mentally tough attitude. Spruriel was highly regarded, and we lost him to grades, but in retrospect, we might have landed a jewel in Marlon. I don't think you lose a thing if he comes in for Big Mike or Burton. In fact, there's no guarantee who will get the most minutes among the big men. It will probably be pretty evenly distributed.
