He’s about one step up. Not too much difference. Herbert has definitely grown a little I think.

I gotcha.



I really thought you might be exaggerating things but you aren't. He looks taller

On last year’s roster Herbert is listed as 6-7 and Giddens is 6-11. Herbert seriously may be around 6-10 or 6-11

Good lord he looks 6'10. As far as Collin and his family showing up ...That's incredibly awesome, wouldn't have expected anything less from them, they're a special family. I think Collin is gonna be a great ambassador for the program moving forward.

I do too. Just reading his statement announcing he was entering the draft, he showed a ton of love to the University. You could tell it was genuine

He does look taller. I really hope he refines his game some, a little more pull up jumper action.

On Collin,
I saw him working out with some NFL guys in one of the videos, And he's mentiones he likes the idea of coming back to the campus to workout and stuff. I think represents the University well. I hope it helps with recruiting :)

Definitely love the kid and he ll always be remembered as much for representing the university as what he did on the court. It was beneficial to us and to him.

He finally signed with an agent btw a couple days ago. Can’t wait to see what team picks him up. I just hope he isnt picked by the Cavs. I don’t wanna pull for LeBron

Forced perspective. He's a tall, lanky dude, but he's not as tall as Giddens. It doesn't take much difference in how far one object is in front of another to make a big difference in how it appears in a photo, especially if the photo is shot from a low angle like this one is.

Yep.....if you'll look at their feet, you'll see how the camera can "lie"....if not, Herb's got some Bob Lanier feet on him!

You must think Avery suddenly grew 6 inches as well.

He also said he plans to make a decision soon, which is good news.

Does anyone know why Kobe Brown is ranked so low on 247 yet is ranked higher on other recruiting sites (composite is 96)?

Not sure. All I know is our staff apparently doesn’t like him. That’s why we aren’t even recruiting him

I've seen a lot of optimism on here regarding Lewis and Watford. Even with these big offers start rolling in, are we still considered a favorite?

With Kira, we’re still the clear favorite. I’ve heard mixed things on Trendon, but it seems we still lead for him too.
