If we keep Mirk and the Ivisic brothers can bulk up a little more we’ll build off an already vvg front court. Mirk was already one of the best freshmen we’ve ever seen - imagine him as a sophomore! Anyone know if he’ll test NBA waters? Not sure what his projected pick would be… I’d like to see one more true bruiser that can play the 5 next year, with at least a nominal outside threat, but with the guards coming in and if AS stays that’s already an amazing foundation. I don’t think there’s any replacement for KW but if we can find another elite IQ PG and another tough as nails ball handler (à la KB) there’s no reason we can’t get back to the F4.

Question for the stats gurus here.. How many P5 jump balls did we win? I didn't get to see a number of the games (thanks Peacock!) but my unscientific tally was zero. I like Tommy, but if his feet are glued to the floor, why not start Z for the jump and until the 1st whistle?

Could help with those slow starts...

That has been brought up. Z would win most and it is rare for Tomi to win one.
