Not much. He's been in the states longer. I think he was 15 by the time he went Down Under.

Based on RMs it can sometimes take years to lose the accent after coming back

KY has said in his interviews that he likes a rim runner at the 5. Fouss is valuable and will have a role, but I would

RootieBoy

7:50pm

I’d describe him as the starting and best 5.

Bluforever

7:53pm

That's great. I don't think KY will describe him that way based on the offense he said he plans to run, but maybe he

RootieBoy

7:55pm

He is much more than a rim runner

Remigius

7:54pm

A rim runner is someone who gets up and down the floor quickly and scores a lot of their points in transition and not

He’s a great role player that fills a need against specific types of players

Perhaps, but he is still a better option than the other bigs

Not enough offensive talent. Need another ball handler too. Baker should be in there.

SinkingQuffa

7:14pm

Who are you taking out for Baker? I don’t think Baker is going to start over

LakeshowCougs

7:19pm

Richie or Mag. Demin's versatility would allow for either switch, I think.

SinkingQuffa

7:20pm

I think Mag has start for defense. None of the other guys are good perimeter

LakeshowCougs

I'd probably vote that way, too. I'm sick of us playing small.

SinkingQuffa

7:23pm

Unless Saunders vastly improves his ball handling, I agree.

LakeshowCougs

7:25pm

He REALLY needs to make that happen. He plays really upright, though — so I don't see that as a likely quick-fix.

SinkingQuffa

It is the biggest hole in his game. If he could handle the ball . . . Oh boy.
