I'm nothing but happy for Nielson. What happened to him in having his scholly
pulled would be rough for any kid in his situation. Credit to him for the work he has done to improve and to Coach Pope for seeing his potential and providing an environment for him to improve in.

In addition to other players mentioned as creating a log jam at his position there was the kid from AF who at times looked pretty solid as a freshman (Andrus). I think he could turn into a pretty good player as well.

People love to bag on Rose for not being able to develop bigs and on Coach Pope by extension. If it were easy there wouldn't be so many 6-10 stiffs walking around. Pope did a great job while here and I would love to see him come back when Rose decides to hang it up.
