Robot, don't you think that because of Bediako's GAME EXPERIENCE that's what has allowed him to do those aspects better than Pringle?

I think Bediako improved those aspects because of his experience over the years.

Just a discussion

Pringle played a year at Wofford a year before he went to Juco, they both have about the same experience. Pringle is older than Chuck.

It all depends on how the game is being called but I think he did a phenomenal job guarding Colin Castleton and multiple bigs from Miss. State.

Bediako use to be the same way but GAME EXPERIENCE helped with that.

What does that have to do with it CC?

I think there's a video or something out about how late of a start Nick Pringle got in terms of learning the game of basketball.

You can't be serious with the Wofford stuff.

Not nearly the same either.

But Chuck only has more Bama game experience. Pringle has started 2 seasons of college basketball, but on a lower level. Chuck is just the better overall player, even if he's not our most athletic big men. His impact on the game had him as one of the most impactful in college basketball. I'm sure SummerOfGoogle can find the particular numbers in referring to.

Tennesse’s C is 7’1 265, would be a rough task for Pringle to guard him without fouling. Our best bet would be putting Clowney at the 5 and playing small imo, may be what we’re forced to do anyway if Pringle does start and gets in foul trouble.

Hopefully Bediako can give us some minutes, we dont even know yet that he isnt playing.

I'm not saying Bediako isn't better than Nick Pringle let's get that cleared.

BEDIAKO IS BETTER THAN PRINGLE!

If you all think that Pringle's experience is the same as Bediako's who's at power 5 school then I don't know what to tell you.

I can assure you that a JUCO players still have loads to learn.

Probably, but I don't know what that has to do with anything. He doesn't have that experience yet. Maybe next year.
