Guys best be working hard this summer. Minutes are going to be earned, not given. So many lineup options with our players next year. Opposing coaches are going to hate our match ups next year.

Hey CW, you really should have linked the article to the "Video Scouting Report 2", more recent and much better.

Perhaps, in all of the pages, someone has mentioned that already.... :wink:

It has been well documented how Georges turned Nerlens Noel into the player he is today. Just imagine what he is going to do for GT.

Hopefully he'll share some of momma Niang's cookies.

Apologies to GeorgesFan if she reads this, but I hope you're prepared to do what's necessary to get this kid bulked up!

Not sure what to make of that comment from FF. Doesn't sound extremely positive.

I would disagree. Here's how to interpret the quote, IMO....

He's a nice prospect, but probably isn't going to be a 30 min/game guy next year that radically changes ISU except for added depth.

Certainly doesn't mean that he couldn't make a bigger splash or develop into a big impact guy as he matures throughout his career.

Also, it's not as if FF has seen enough of him to predict these things with 100% accuracy.

No, he's not Marc Gasol but nice prospect. RT @FlexintheD: does this signing affect the conf outlook for Iowa State. #big12champions

Gasol is one of the best centers in the NBA. It's like saying Hallice Cooke isn't Steph Curry. Kind of a no **** sherlock statement to me. As for his affect on conference standing, I would guess most would consider someone who is projected to be a starter to rise to the level of having a meaningfull affect on the conference race. I don't think there are many who think he will start.

While he can run pretty fast his vertical looks pretty mediocre. He'll need to get stronger and improve that if he want's to start. Before the Georges comments come in, he can get away with it because he's the most gifted post up scorer in the league. Doesn't need to jump.

When you are 7'1, you don't need to jump real high either.

Sounds exactly what I would expect. I don't expect him to make a difference in the conference race next year either. If he affects one game to be the difference in winning or losing I'll be happy.

Maybe we should wait until he actually has been on the team for at least one practice before judging him. If he read thhis board, he wouldn't come here. Give the kid a break.
