Iowa State is starting a 6'9 guy at the 5 spot tonight. Size isn't that big of a deal in college. All about the guards. Just ask UCONN and their last NCAA championship team.

UConn had a 7 foot blocking machine in Amida Brimah in their last NCAA championship.

Relax and enjoy this. We got a target big. Adding one more (as opposed to two) should be doable. I am hoping for Kapita. Dont forget transfer market

Spot on. Froling gives us depth at the post. Need 1 more quality big imo.

Pretty sure Temple beat SMU by shooting a lot of 3-pointers. Same for UCLA. Same for every SMU loss over the years.... 3 pointers. Stop them.

Congrats on the pickup. We're hoping his teammate Jack White commits to Temple.

Larry Brown will not put a starting lineup on the Court without Ben Moore. Bank it. Some might not notice what he does for this team but Larry Brown damn sure does

Yeah, not sure if it'll be cool or weird for him to come to moody and hear our student section chanting one of his songs

You were talking about the National Championship and Brimah was key player in both their run and win.

Regarding 3 pointer sometimes teams get hot from 3. Some of the Temple 3's were contested and they still made them. No stopping that. We have a very good defensive team.

To win it all you need quality guards and bigs. We just about have that.

I read that Jack White can play. 6'7" and can shoot.
