Appears at times the each have about a 6" vertical. Big men without the weight to play like big men. Yes, maybe they can shoot the three a little but Reath needs to be stronger and not always looking at the jump hook that comes up short... seemingly quit often.

Tighten up Tigers and get back on track!!!

Reath and Epps aren’t going to change their game this late. This is what we have for this year

I agree. But you would think at 6'11" you could muster a few more rebounds than 3

Epps can’t jump over a loose leaf sheet of paper. We have no true center. Both are stretch 4s pretending to be post players

Very true, both are thin and not overly athletic

LSU got destroyed inside by GA, GA simply got whatever shot they wanted on the inside whether or not Reath or Epps were in the game. And I couldn't help but notice a number of GA's players were taller than LSU's and constantly got offensive rebounds over the smaller LSU players to get put backs. That will change next season with Reid, Kirr, D Days, Bigby-Williams and others. LSU will kill people on the inside, but Reath and Epps though tall are soft as charmin.

shite, on one play I saw a GA player block Reath and his shot down to the ground. Lmao That's weak.

Both lack athleticism and physicality. A 6’9 physical athletic center will out rebound them every day

A true center would destroy them, look what that GA forward did to them and he's really a PF playing center for GA. He just had his way, they stopped really no one for GA on the inside, they got whatever they wanted, really weak inside defense that Wade will have to solve somehow.

Reath is 6-11 244lbs Maten is 6-8 240, Ogbeide is 6-8 240lbs it’s not a size or weight problem it’s a heart problem. Epps does what he can but at 214 he’s not gonna push people around, Reath is the issue he plays way too soft.
