I know he’s a good coach and knows what he’s doing but that seriously puzzles me as well. Ibarguen isn’t 6’7. I’ve seen pics of him and he’s 6’5 at most. Those guys aren’t going to help vs Kentucky and Auburn. Hell, Wade sims could do the same thing those guys are.

If you get another 6’6 guy, make sure he’s a perimeter player. I think going for a project big man from high school, JUCO wing and a transfer big would be the best bet. Probably hard to sell an elite high school post player to be the 4th big man in the class. Hell, if you can get a good hs wing, go for that instead of JUCO too

Uh, AU doesn’t play anyone over 6’8. Their best post defender was Anfernee McElmore who’s 6’6 220. Do you not remember Jordan Mickey? He was 6’7 but had a 7’2 wingspan and superb timing which made him an excellent shot blocker. Length, instincts, and timing matter infinitely more than just height. If height was all that mattered, Duop would be the best post defender in the SEC.
