Coach is right on Mirk. He wasn't the most athletic last season and still brought ball up court. Initiated offense quite a bit. Could be top 5 in country this fall. He is special.

Any further insight to how Ethan Brown has looked? I know Brad said he’s learning the weight room and is a freshman, but i remember hearing he might be another really underrated freshman

Every freshman we get that's outside the top 100, will be said to have been "underrated" because of Keaton. That doesn't automatically mean they'll be ready their first year.

We have one spot available between Zens / Brown / Williams to play realistic minutes (our much-coveted #9thMan position).

Could it be Brown who wins those minutes? Yes.

Could it be one of the other two? Yes as well.
