Potential boom of Robert morris guy?
- Thread starter chasingwildcat
- Start date
He'd be an upgrade to Carr, and a nice pickup if it happens.
I like him as a prospect and especially like that he has two years of eligibility. Fingers crossed.
Called this one days ago. I’m not pretending I knew positivity, but I trusted my friend and his real source. I’m staying positive. I was pretty damn positive on Magoon, as was my buddy and his buddy. So I’ll eat my crow on that one.
Would be some refreshing news. Maybe start the domino affect
That dillinghim needs to be ignored by all. Clear BSer. Not saying this isn’t going to happen, as clearly there is smoke.
Just going by someone I know who knows a guy that has source in the basketball office
I watched one video and he does have a nice looking form on his shot. He also seems to be more athletic than Carr. He reminds me of Condon and Haugh of Florida. I also like that he isn't a senior so maybe he will stay around as I think that is the key.
This guy looks good. Decent athleticism but a great stroke.
I like him better than MM and Bol. Won't scare Yaxel either I don't think.
You never have to eat crow, man. Everyone knows you are solid.
Better shooting than Carr from outside. Has a rather unorthodox back to basket arsenal and the way he dribbles , his pocket could be easily be picked. .Carr has a better floater. He has more moves in offensive arsenal than Carr and two years eligibility .
On defense I don’t think he will be necessary an upgrade to Carr by contrary he will a liability. Whom ever else we get at 4 and 5 they better defend the paint.
If we get him is for offense and 2 yrs of eligibility. I am not too crazy about this one unless we look at him a plug in for offense and then take him out in defense.

He might end up being a star for us offensively, but people keep saying that he had a phenomenal game against Bama, and I disagree. Offensively, yes. Defensively, he got abused by their length and athleticism. Solid defensive numbers against worse opponents, though. We just need a defensive stopper at C when he's in.
I don't understand why that account's tweet was posted at all. The first tweet with the On3 source material would have sufficed.
Assuming UK indeed gets Folgueiras (incredible get!), are you thinking UK might have been trying to hold back on announcing Folgueiras to not scare off Bowen or other 2nd unit PF options?
He's European. They don't do their own defense.
Great finishing inside and a very good shooter. Has some beef also. Looks like a starter to me. So skilled and I love that he has two years left.
Get him with Yaxel and shits gettin right
This would quell a lot of the fears and anxiety on this board. Certainly mine. Him and Kam is a good start.
Appreciate that @Aike. Talked to David again about Gwath, they were so sure because he actually told staff he was coming. But things obviously changed at late hour.
If you want a defensive center then it's Henri Veesaar from Arizona. Plus you get the overall game.
Hey it ain't like anyone on the team this season was able to really stop Alabama haha.
I don't worry too much about a player being stout on offense AND defense. If I have to pick, give me offense all day when the sport favors offensive players. If some of our guys are a little weak defensively, and if it keeps their legs fresh for the offensive end, so be it.
If Magoon has a history of injury, it might have been for the best. Get a hold of Bowen and we'll have at least one athletic stud shot blocker. Alvaro doesn't have terrible defensive numbers. Seems like a solid shot blocker in his own right, but he definitely got punked against Bama. Maybe it was scheme or just how good Bama was or how subpar everyone else was on defense or a mix of all three.
Dunno. I just really hope we get some athleticism down low this go around.
Well, I think we are in good shape with Yaxel. Just have to wait and see.
Bro, I don't know your source but I'm pretty sure they are just assuming and making educated guesses like every one else.
Doesn’t seem many really have the "inside scoop" and this looks to be true other schools, too.
Portal posts get lots of clicks so many like to put out stuff that make a headline, so there going to be a lot of iffy information out there
I understand your point, but there were three games against Bama and one against ut this season where we desperately needed a defensive stop and just couldn't get one to save our lives.
IMO, no amount of humanly feasible offensive output can compensate for that defensive ability or lack thereof. Especially if our hope is to throw down with the best of the best and BE the best of the best.
There you go have Bowen to go with this guy and there is our defense down low.
I don’t know. I think little more than assuming.
