Any recruit can grow on their mission. That's nothing new.

The key is to find a balance between shooting and skill and size and athleticism

We need to pay Pope above the market rate. 80k money.

You are way over analyzing this year’s team. Coach Pope is just playing to the strength of the players he has that’s
