Does modern basketball make the 7'4" guy obsolete?

He would be situational for sure but he will have 5 fouls to give

Lee plays like a traditional big man. Is he obsolete?

Lee is shooting 50% from 3 this year. Hence he is not a traditional big man.

He’s taken 14 total 3s. That’s not even 1 per game.

Corn Pop

14 is enough to see that he's doing well at it.

Point is he can and has stretched the floor when he is playing

I think our post defense and rebounding could be better.

NBA yes. College no. Big Centers in college can be a game changer.

Rudy is a traditional big guy. He takes the key away, forcing teams out.

I don't love his game, but I'd take him. Burgess could definitely do something

Remind me, why did he go to Utah anyways? I understood he grew up a BYU fan.

Pope can't convince him to switch right now without breaking the rules

I'd rather not waste a scholie on him.

Pope is on fire. I expect him to have top recruits, going forward

Would Special K let him out of his scholarship if he wanted to transfer to BYU?

Good point. I doubt it.

What about Lohner? Very talented and LDS, seems like a no brainer

He’s going to Utah, so you may be onto something there

Croweater

With Lohner I think it’s a playing time issue.

The PAC is a joke of a conference. ASU, the leader of the PAC, lost by 40 points
