The Jamie Dixon MBB Recruiting Thread

[Eight]

frogs have a number of big bodies this year in alok and samuel at 6' 11'' and barlow and mcwilliams at 6'10"

yuat alok is listed as #35 on the roster and is the frog big in the video clip with the block and a dunk. kevin samuel is #21 on the roster and the other big with the dunk in the video clip

biggest weakness last year was they didn't have an athletic big on the defensive end to rebound and block shots. they don't have to have a guy who can score 20 a night and in some ways keeping the lane open fits into the skills of the wing players.

I don't know who it was but saw a quick video, maybe from TCU Men's BB IG acct but it showed a big man pin someone's shot on the glass and it looked effortless and nasty. I think we will have some aggressive inside defensive play this year.

I was told that Big 12 doesn’t play defense.

Matt Rhule brought defense to the Big 12 so we have it now.

In Big 12 a shot blocker rebounder post defending center would help us. If they can score as well that would be gravy.

I really think Alok is going to develop into the guy you're looking for

I think that's who it was on the video I referenced above. Was an impressive block.

Wondering the same thing. That knee is concerning.

 

[Rose Bowl]

This is a ARob type of guard. He’s a pass first type who is probably a little better shooter.

I think we’re expecting attrition next year as if all sign we would be one over the limit.

From your lips to God’s ear. This team with a defensively talented big man would be even more fun to watch

Three 4 starsies in this class....#8/9class in the country.....go look at the blue bloods avg stars and then Dixon’s class, sweet Jezuz
