Ole Miss @ UK
Mizzou @ UF
HUGE game in Rupp tonight for 2nd place in the SEC between Ole Miss and UK.
Mizzou has the toughest backcourt UF will face thus far this season, and this guy also makes his debut...

Honestly, and this may be a little crazy, but to me hes a mix of Lamar Odom and Blake Griffin from everything the scouts say and from the highlights I've seen.
Who knows though... This is his first time hes stepping into a College Basketball game.

So will he take minutes from Prather and Yuegette?

All depends on how he comes into the game and plays.
I say he plays between 10-12 minutes tonight, depending on how he plays defense and also how Prather plays with his slight ankle sprain.

He'll probably get 10 minutes or so tonight. He's extremely athletic but I'm not gonna get too excited until I see him against college competition because his highlight tapes seemed to have quite a few short white guys.

I just watched some CWalk Highlights. Oh My Gawd. Sick. Still, I don't know how many opportunities to dunk in college like he had in HS. Didn't see many post moves or shots. But he looks as athletic as Ive seen.

I watched his highlights and all he did was dunk, I didnt see a single jumpshot or any ball handling to make me think he is anything like Lamar Odom other than the fact he is left handed. The only Blake Griffin comparison i saw was that he is an aggressive Dunker.

I hate to compare athletes to others cause people can get the wrong idea. I saw some driving to the hoop but it was mostly just really impressive, athletic dunking. I would take him in a heartbeat, but I didn't see a ton of refined offensive skill set stuff as much as overpowering athleticism that he used to be a great HS player.

I'm not a Blake Griffin fan but he has really improved his game on offense this year. He's no longer just a dunker. Look what he's done without Paul this year.

We don't play well on the road and we have zero presence in the paint.
If we're within 15 at the end of the game, I'll count it as a moral victory.

Not really Prather. He'll probably rest Yuegette and take some of Kurtz's.
Mizzou still gonna get Kurtz'd anyway.
Also, you only saw highlights of him dunking because that's what he's known for and dunks are what everyone wants to focus on. He's a high flyer baby. However, there are highlights out there of him dribbling and for his size, wow.

Good thing about Walker is while we've been waiting for the green light from the NCAA...he's been able to practice with the team. Gives him a chance to understand the roll he needs to play.

He's a pretty solid ballhandler for his size. I'm pumped to see him play and I'm not even a Florida fan
