Dang Hamer. Please don’t wear those in front of the recruits. Just a silly look. I couldn’t take you serious.

Freshmen bigs, unless they are advanced, usually take time to figure things out, more than any other position other than maybe PG.

As for the sell, I'm thinking about it as it compares to Zona specifically. Krivas is likely gone, so PT, $$ and all the other peripherals are there. My take on watching him is that he's not a traditional center, likes to step out and shoot. That is not something Lloyd's system does with centers and could be the biggest sell.

Koa Peat was a PF.

There seems to be fewer and fewer top centers come out of the HS ranks.
