Hunter Mickelson is 6'10" but makes himself 5'6" when on the blocks at times, its frustrating as hell, but on the defensive side of the ball he plays like he's 7'7".


One of our larger issues this season has been them getting out-rebounded. Just off the top of my head UK has Harrow (6'2"), Mays (6'2"), Goodwin (6'5"), Poythress (6'7"), Wiltjer (6'10"), Noel (6'10"), and WCS (7'0") regularly on the floor. They shouldn't be out rebounded on most nights but they are because they're simply not blocking out.

I'm afraid this is becoming a symptom of horrible high school coaching.

Poor fundamentals because these guys never have had too use proper technique and fundamentals, they have always been the best talent on the court at any given time and that was enough to be the best on the court.

That plus having a new team every one to two years is the problem with Cal's one and done recruiting, IMO.

Not a knock, flame or whatever, just an observation.
