Dominated by Conner MacDougall who went to ASU and now is at New Mexico. 6'8" strong and athletic. I didn't see the athleticism everyone keeps talking about, but Dastrup does have a lot of skill for a big man as discussed (passing, shooting, footwork etc).

He would help himself though to lose maybe 20 lbs and regain the mobility...

Good point. He sure doesn't have the spring to his game he had three years ago.

mantis mutu

He'll get there. Still has the most important things that are harder to teach but you make a good point

He is a very skilled big. The skills will sneak out of his new frame soon
