This staff has recruited their arse off in just a few weeks. Can't wait to see what they can do long term.

I think he's a 4. He's just 6'7" but he averaged 10+ rebounds per game his sophomore year.

Same height as Draymond Green for what it is worth.

Which player will not be on the roster next year to open a spot for him? Currently at 13 schollies filled if I'm not mistaken.

I agree his height and wingspan is fine for a PF these days. Most teams don't have dominant Centers that bang in paint these days. We have been successful with guys around that size like Bass and Taz in the past.

I don't know who is leaving. I wonder if they already know, or are hoping a player leaves on his own.

I'm sure they know. My prediction is Elbert Robinson.

4 but plays like a center. He lives around the basket. Doesnt really have a shot at all and shoots ~50% from the line.

He's about as good as you could expect for a grad transfer. At least he was a productive starter. Most grad transfers are bench players (or at least low-productivity starters) trying to get a fresh start.

Combs would compare favorably to Jordan Mickey in size and playing style. If he can match him in production and interior defense this will be huge for the program even if only one year.

Most certainly, this is a huge upgrade over ER III who I am guessing he replaces basically.

I agree that ER III seems most likely.

Wade is already making many positive moves in the short time he has been here.

The 2018 recruiting class will be an important one. After the 2017-18 season, we will lose 5 or 6 players due to eligibility as it now stands. Can't wait to see some outstanding players, teams, and rowdy PMAC fans in the future!

He's not much of a shot blocker, not sure what kind of on ball defender he is though. Never averaged a full block per game in 3 years.

Stop spreading this stuff. He is nothing like Mickey. Does not play like Mickey. Misguided
