Man, he's just the type of athlete we need on our roster right now. Popoola's the level of athlete the enthusiasts were (wrongly) claiming Bryant to be.
Really, he's the type of athlete we lost in Frank Bartley . Only he's taller & more skilled than Frank.
Personally, I think our team this year would be night-n-day better with Bartley in there as a Sr.
I'll admit my hopes of landing Popoola ain't too high at this point. I'd love to be shocked down the road, though. His verbal commit put the biggest smile on my face since Frank Jackson's verbal (though I'll admit Baxter & Yoeli weren't far behind).
mutu.
