Name 2 bigs in the 757 ready for college ball, now I can name a doz of guards and wings in the 2015 class who are ready. Bigs need development time. We are on one JuCo who has 3 yrs. Stith will have 3 yrs. Both these guys needed the time. Frank and Cooper were only worth a dime in their last two years. They could sit here or played JuCo, does it matter where they do that. Maybe the playing time is better than watching from the bench.

I gotta rethink this Juco idea. It seems to me if a kid has potential and goes the juco route, we're still in the same predicament. The lower level big boys are gonna come after a kid who has had time to develop. BT used to take chances on kids by signing them out of high school and developing them himself. That way he already had the kid if and when he developed. Of course if he struck out, which we all know he did, (Harris Larsen etc.) he was kinda stuck with dead wood for a number of years.
Not sure how I feel about juco's. I agree there are plenty of them in C-USA, but there seem to be any number of freshmen making names for themselves as well. Qualifier: Not any 6'10-7' types, but very athletic 6'8-9 types.
