LOL at all the people hating on BRE. He might not be perfect but he tries hard and gets the job done.
As long as the job isnt shooting free throws/offense, I would agree with you.
In all seriousness, hes been a great leader for TJ's teams, and does everything at 100%
I'm hoping a lot of people aren't hating on him and are just hoping someone with a higher ceiling emerges that can take minutes from him if warranted. While there are definitely shortcomings to his game, there were a few games last year where he sparked the team and got them out of a funk. I'll sure as hell root for anyone that brings a high motor to the court.
I will never understand why so many dog on big rob, he averaged 6&4 last year to osun's 8&4. He was turnover prone at times. He's not an amazing player but he's not terrible either.
No matter how much or little he plays this year he will always be a legend to me for telling Bacot he was too small

We will need his physicality in the post. He is not a 25 minute guy, but he has a role on this team.
Only way this makes sense is if you mean meltdown like if you see TSwift at the mall meltdown.
Statically speaking, he was one of the least efficient players in the conference play, despite his last season being "better" than his first...
I HIGHLY doubt a 5th year center has a meaningful jump in his game or we would have already seen signs.
He is a 2nd, ideally 3rd unit center good for a couple hard fouls and spelling better players when they need a rest.
100% agree on the meltdown part!
I just expect a true freshman to be on the floor all the time - there's so much to adjust to, learn, grown men in the post, etc. Historically this has been how it worked, regardless of recruiting ratings.
Now, maybe Omaha is the unreal exception to the rule, plays 30 mpg, is 1st team all conference, and I am totally underestimating him. But for a guess on minutes, I will play the historical odds. I would be happy to be wrong!
This should be our starting center. He's listed as the same size as KJ Adams of Kansas, but that is some size inflation on KU's part IMO (See below)
I'd be surprised. I think there will be a couple "every game, end of game" players, Lipsey for one, but I could see this year being really situational.
And if Milan is one of those players, it will mean he's really good.
Looked back at this for grins. I was pretty close on the 3 guards.
Pretty close on King and BRE, both are more like 22-23 mpg.
Ward is about 16mpg, so a little less.
WAY off on Milan (31mpg) and Omaha of course. Did not see Milan playing near that much as a true freshman, and thought the 5-star would play a decent amount in rotation with the other 3 bigs.
Watson & Pav I have reversed compared to actual.
Quick scan of the thread and it it looks like every post had Omaha starting. Nobody had Milan starting. And BRE didn't get much love either.
I think if you told most posters before the season that BRE starts and Omaha doesn't see the floor and the team will be in the top ten contending for a league title in March they would have declared you insane and had you committed.

Pretty close here despite Omaha. But everyone got that wrong. Back on July 19th.
And looks like you caught some flack for it. If you weren't alone on calling that one in this thread then you were pretty close.
