He certainly helps and is the right profile to compliment them, but you can't hide two guys from coverage against speedy little guards in a defensive scheme with drop coverage and the like.

Z is the better rim protector, he'll be in the "center" role. That's going to put Tomi in challenging situations against quicker players we were able to protect him from this year.
You also can have them change jerseys at half if Tomi is in foul trouble...

How on earth would we not be interested in this kid but we were interested in Dix? Give me Yates over Dix ALL DAY!!!

Same 3 point shooting percentage as Dix and as a freshman... I just can't understand the staff not being interested here. 6'4.. Would pair extremely well with Kylan.

I think it's 40 minutes between them at 5 with about 5 to 10 playing together. We need a defending 4 post defender that can shoot.

Will declare obviously, but the door is open and a check will be waiting if he wants to come back. Him and family have been very open to that idea, will likely depend on the combine.
Do you think he enters the portal too? Or is he NBA or Illinois?

Is it because they can't afford the impact guys in the portal so they are looking to Europe?

On the plus side it seems like you can get values on extremely talented guys but it also means you're going to be young and not have as much college experience.

Walter Clayton Jr. began at Iona and then transferred to Florida. Johni Broome began at Morehead State and then transferred to Auburn. If Pitino and Golden and Wade and Pearl can identify guys like that within the country, makes you wonder what Underwood is doing chasing Euros.
