re: Hunter Mickelson

he looks pretty good running down for a block, and he gets down the floor on the break well for a big guy too. i didnt see him in high school, but im sure he just sat down there and towered over little kids.

i really think he could get adjusted to this kind of play, but i dont ever see him being more than a 15 mins per guy. but i think thats ok.

IIRC his junior year he weighed like 180lbs.

He wasn't projected to be a one or even a two and done type player like Young. He was projected to come on his junior year, he is on pace with his development.

Madden was the projected the same.

BJ was the only player in the class that had a legit shot at jumping to the pros early the other three were going to be "college guys", 3-4 year guys. Everyone was getting hyped because Pel supporters were hyping the shite out of the class thinking it was going to save Pel's job, it was a solid class, but it wasn't a Calipari Kentucky 1 and done type class.

Mike's next class will fill in nicely with the current roster. Mickelson may only play 15-20 minutes a game, but that's fine, Corlis was the only "Big" (frick you Jimmy Dykes for making me use that term) to play substantial minutes in this system over the years, the rest of the guys were 10-20 minutes type guys, save Hood, but he was more of a SF playing the PF position like Corlis.
