I never got how people post about a baseball game in a recruiting thread about a basketaball player.

First of all it's on an entire different board. Secondly, you aren't in the baseball thread. It just never made sense to me how that's even possible.

Explain why you believe this team is weirdly designed.

if memory serves, former LSU PG Danny moscovitz was Israeli but my research does not confirm. I think zipper is the 2nd Israeli hooper in LSU history


Willie " The Back Jet "Sims was Jewish and palyed in the Maccabi Games before signing with LSU.

Sims was Jewish, but was not a native of Israel. Willie grew up in New York. Very effective 6th man for those outstanding Tiger teams.

Sid Crocker used to introduce him with the starters as the best sixth man in all of college basketball.

Unfortunately, he probably won't be dropping dimes.


It’s a perfect fit bc we only need him to cash in the ones given to him by Thomas.

In all seriousness, I’m cautiosly optimistic on Zipper and team in general. Hope end results are different bc this is how I’ve felt at this juncture past few years at this time too. Here’s to McMahon learning from his body of work and putting together a complete team on both sides of the court and he can establish the physicality on defense his teams have often struggled with. Basically, I’m all in on being ready to be hurt again.

Check out the transfer portal thread. Tigersham has it laid out there.

He looks to be a good shooter but not great. 38% from three but most of them judging from his highlights were wide open shots. He won't get those in SEC games. So I look for him to be a good depth piece that comes off the bench when we are looking for some offense but not the superstar to carry us in the tournament.

He has four years of eligibility. Only games in US college count toward eligibility. He will be 22 by the time he plays here which is a bonus because he will be both mature and have eligibility as though he was a freshman.
