Sam was listed as 6'8" last summer, and he was having a growth spurt. I dont know if he's already 7 foot, but its just a matter or time.

There are two 7 footers on my dad's side. It's amazing watching these little kids seem like they will be 6'2 or 6'4 and then suddenly in a year grow 8 and 10 inches in about a year and the physical adjustments they try to make.
I like getting the Aussie recruits.

Just recently some traveling basketball squads from Australia came to play in the area and if I had known in time I would have went to watch them because I was only about a mile away.

Welcome to SMU and Moody Magic, Harry. We are looking forward to seeing you
play in a Mustang Uniform, and as you know, with Markus and Jordan leaving you
should get your share of playing time.

You made the right choice and we can only hope that your brother(s) are as wise as
you seem to be. Larry will guide you in many ways. Who better to school you to become
a success in the pros. Plus you will get to see the Dirkster play in your own backyard.

Sam is supposedly an even more advanced prospect than Harry was at that age. Look out.

Can we call this phenomenon a reverse-mudiay?

If we land Sam too, give Rhonda a lifetime contract for opening the Froling pipeline to SMU

How about promoting her to asst AD or something and getting another coach. Win win situation.

This would be a great solution. It would reward Rhonda and provide an opportunity
for someone.

For actually opening the pipeline, say thank you to Claudia Brassard.

Does Froling play like Sabonis? Trying to learn to whom he compares on the college level.

No, right now Harry plays more like Wiltjer. I know that Wiltjer had an awful game last night, 0-8 from outside the arc is pretty much the worst performance of his career, but keep in mind that's an aberration, he's going to be a first round NBA pick. Harry grew up playing more on the wing, and then he started to grow. A year ago he was skinny as a pencil, it has taken awhile for his body mass to catch up with his height, and he is still learning to use that mass on the low block in the way Sabonis does. Harry is out of school and playing against older men, now, and he's developing the more physical side of his game. Eventually, he could be a combination of the two, WIltjer's perimeter game, combined with Sabonis's strength inside.
