[QUOTE="Deleted member 186590, post: 1313234"] As others have said, he's physically ready to play right away which we won't find in a freshman recruit. He likely fits BU's system better than someone like Rooks and he's more of a banger down low than someone like McIntosh. So, other than JT coming back (he's not coming back), Agau is last hope for some size down low that can rebound and defend and he likely has upside as a scoring threat down low as well. He's never going to be the focal point of the offense, but he did get to the line at a much higher rate than Black or Finke last year, which tells me he's more aggressive. I think everyone is excited because he would solve the major worry about size for the next two years, while providing some upside that it clicks for him and he starts to realize his potential.
