You're turning a positive into a negative. He's not taking up space. He's making our team better.

Me too. It was crazy timing for me to ask Goodman about him and then him choose us.

ok. but that also begs the question. AG has no one else to bring in at this point right? So this is akin to giving a great walkon a scholarship his senior year to thank him for all his hard work

Walkons typically don't score 42 against Baylor but if you want to label it that, sure. No, Grant doesn't have a plethora of 6'10 immediate impact guys running around for him to sign on May 9th.

wow..did not know he scored that many vs Baylor. So he is a 2.

and for the record, after BB came out with his written support for AG, I have a new lease on life about the future of our basketball program. that being said this is a make or break year for sure.

Yeah he went off in the Maui Invitational and then shut it down for the rest of they year because of his legs.

This is awesome. Between his knees and inevitable suspensions, he may not play more than 10 games next season, but I consider his personality a valuable asset as well. A cooler, less thuggish Marshall Henderson?

Yeah, I don't see the negative here. He only has one year of eligibility right? So either he comes off the bench and makes at least a slight impact, or he sits and helps the team morale. Better than having an open scholarship.

As usual, a Bama basketball fan can't have some good news with out some bad: Dickerson to Georgetown.

Will we ever land another good post player?

@D_Mitch23: Don't think we'll have any problems knocking down the 3 next year adding this guy to the mix! #RTR #TtownSplashBros ?? LINK

No way this team doesn't finish with at least 20-10 win/loss record

I'll be disappointed if we don't finish with at least 22-24 wins in the regular season.

It's definitely one of our most talented teams in some years with a shite ton of experience across the roster.

Hopefully the guys are learning to complement each other. A lot of new faces coming in.

PG: Tarrant, Coleman
SG: Levi, Retin, Varidel, Mitchell
SF: Hale, Cooper, Norris
PF: Kessens, Jacobs (?)
C: Taylor

Obviously a little thinner on the inside than the perimeter, but that breakdown is slightly misleading cause Hale (and even Cooper) could play a stretch four. Hale really primarily was a 4 for us last year.

Deepest team of the Grant era pretty clearly

Obviously you can't predict injuries, but at the least we go 9 deep. That would mean no Jacobs, and maybe Mitchell and Norris aren't ready (my guess is Norris plays).
