Bam Adebayo brings power game!

Beast Mode Bam. Dude is gonna be terrifying by the end of next season. I'm thinking he could end up being our best, which is saying a lot when Fox, Monk, Gabriel on the roster.

Amazing tidbit from this article - the guy has just started lifting weights this year after the transfer - and he was monster before that. Imagine after another 6 months then a summer in our S&C program.
 
Haven't had a power guy since DMC.

Great get and very eager to see him in blue..........that lineup is going to be special to see in blue the first time.

I would argue that Harrelson was pretty powerful down low.
 
Love the fact that we signed this guy! Love his motor. I think this guy is going to dominate inside at the college level. With Giles getiting hurt, this guy is the best big in the class, IMHO.

We are lucky to have him.

Couldn't agree more. Watching him play, you come away with, how does a guy this big continuously run the floor the way he does. We got the guy I wanted from the start.. :popcorn:
 
Lol he's going to end up weighing 265 or 270 at Kentucky. He's just naturally ridiculously strong and athletic. With somebody that size, with his kind of athleticism, quickness, and motor, I wouldn't be slightly shocked if he ended up as a top 5 pick, or potentially #1 overall.

I'd say KAT was a power guy.

The dude could turn his back to the basket and score on anyone in America, and I mean ANYONE
 
You know the UNC*** and Duke fans hate that he is at UK. Hope he turns out the best recruit to come out of N.C. I still say this may turn out to be the best class that Cal has at UK.
 
Doesn't strike me as the kind of guy that's going to get out rebounded by a frank kaminsky type player

Well, he's averaging 16.3 points and 11.7 rebounds per game on a stacked team in the best division of basketball in North Carolina, and he's doing it while being triple teams constantly (according to reports from recruiting analysts). I'd say the guy is gonna be terrific for UK. Especially at the rate that he's adding muscle onto an already ridiculously muscular body.

Hes now 6-10 255 with basically a year to get bigger and stronger. O my look out college bball. I would say our class will look like this by the time they suit up at UK.

Bam 6-10 265
Gabriel 6-10 220
SKJ 6-11 215
Tai 6-10 270
Fox 6-4 190
Monk 6-4 195

uuUUN

SKJ will not be 215. He weighs that right now at least. I'm gonna say 225 for him, and 215 for Wenyen Gabriel. Monk may weigh 200 by the time he's at Kentucky. Solid frame, will be eerily similar to Russell Westbrook in terms of size and athleticism.

KAT wasn't near an enforcer like Cousins and maybe even Randle. He learned however to be aggressive which increased his value.
I can't recall any incident on the floor where KAT was over aggressive. KAT's game is beyond skilled and is already making his mark in the league and I've seen him aggressive in the paint, so he definitely understands the landscape of the league.
 
Bam definitely my favorite player in this class. Nothing better than an athletic, strong big that plays with a mean streak and wants to dunk everything.

I agree we haven't had that type of big since Cousins.
 
Perry flex his bones Stevenson

Davis was a sack when we got him.

Hey that reminds me, Cal needs to show parents a picture of Davis as a high school freshman then an after pic of him now. Just say "this is what happens to OAD players at UK."

Done. :)

Off topic of course.
