serious questions
1. Has anyone seen the 7-footer from LSU working out this summer? Can he be on campus? If so, what's the impression?

2. Does anyone know if we are even pursuing another big? Names, if so?

RE: serious questions
There should be some "big" news coming, from what I understand.

That would be fantastic. He is also immediately eligible since he redshirted last season. Just the type of guy we could use to replace Porter and make us a contender this season. Bring him home JJ.

RE: serious questions
Were we a school that was recruiting him when he was in HS, or was he off our radar?

He still has to sit out a season, it just means that he'd lose a year of eligibility, unless he can get an NCAA waiver (like a family emergency required him to transfer to a local school, though that's no guarantee)

ODU offered but I'm guessing no visit (you'd think a top-20 center coming to campus, we'd all remember vividly)

RE: serious questions
So would we put 2 7 footers on the floor at the same time in 2 years or no?

Probably not right, we’d be far too slow.

Can’t play this coming year regardless so even if we do get him, no ncaa tourney again this year shouldn’t save Jones’s job but would give our next coach some decent players to work with.

LSU guy is in for this coming season only, and Dickens isn't playing until 2019-20. So unless Dickens gets a waiver making him immediately OK to play (doubtful) or LSU guy gets injured and takes a medical redshirt, they won't be eligible at the same time.

RE: serious questions
I hate that he’s not eligible this year. Would have hoped since he sat out last season he could play. So we still need another big for this year. Either way, if JJ lands this guy, I’m inclined to let him stick around to see what he does with him. I imagine he’d be our best 4 year recruit since Dahi? This is an exciting possibility.

RE: serious questions
Dickens is likely to be able to play this year. He redshirted last year and the NCAA has been more willing recently to approve immediate play when transferring under those circumstances.
