I'd completely forgotten about Bernard Kouma. We had a string of imported post guys who just were not cut out for high major NCAA basketball.

Well we’ve hit our allotment of slow stiff white guys and that doesn’t even include the inevitable return of the great white dope (Humrichous)

It’s either him or Riley. Sarr won’t come if Riley is back. It’s one or the other.

Was referencing the recent pickup not Riley vs Sarr.

Other references online are calling for an uber athletic 4 to still be added, due to our Euro lack of athleticism as it appears right now for next year.

Not sure I think we need an uber one, we do need a solid old school type of 4, not another to shoot 3's.

If there was an outside chance OA can land a players such as Ian Jackson, with his skill set/Boswell/Rodgers back cutting, there will be a lot of open 3's for bigs/a shooting guard, and long rebounds as well. Boswell and Rodgers should have an abundance of layups next year.

An athletic forward is a must. I still think a PG and a reliable 3 pt shooting wing are needed.
