MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, AFTER HIS NATIONALLY BROADCAST PERFORMANCE LAST NIGHT, MAYBE HE HAS A SHOT.

When is the Jersey on the Rafters ceremony?

Now it's history

Never got any minutes

I am going to take a wild guess here and say that he probably won't be in the slam dunk contest.

he may have figured he would not get minutes with Freeman getting better and the 7 footer waiting in the wings.

Overthinking it Did anyone (even me) think Freeman would be starting at this time last year? We have to see what practice and recruiting brings.

I misspoke. He played 13 minutes in 2019-2020.

Thank you for clarifying. He seems to have a good stroke on free throws, and he will never be a point guard. But he may well have some skills. I think the coaches have limited him to his role. We have seen that before. Hell, Ali barely took a shot last year.

GOOD ONE! Funny thing, several of the talking heads at the games were comparing him to Shaquille and saying he is going to the NBA one day. More than a little premature.

DUDE He was the third leading scorer on the team. Unlike KLac he did not foul out setting moving screens, he set the screens. Had an assist in the last game, and did some good give and go's. Your complaint might be that he did not post up like Tree and Big Dog. That is not a part of the Groce offense. You know not of what you speak. What are the offensive skills in YOUR wallet??

Who won just about every opening jump ball against "real" centers. And who happens to be out BEST returning player for next season BAR NONE. except of course that he has bad hands and no basketball instincts.

The bigger question is: Does the fact that he is NOT a scholarship player mean he can transfer freely without sitting out a year? Going forward, that is a BIG deal. He is on the national radar, if he is not locked in look out.

That was predictable AND predicted (NOT by me).

Turns out he was no Enrique Freeman. (Too soon)?

Yup. Bad hands. No instincts. 2nd in the Mac and 40th in D1 in boards 1st in the Mac and 40th in D1 in blocks Highest scoring % in D1 3rd leading scorer on the 20-21 Zips Yup, you really called it.

AND his numbers are better than Zekes at the same point in his Zips career!

Freeman 11 points 14 boards 4 blocks 1 assist ZERO turnovers. What more could you ask? 2nd in scoring 1st in boards 1st in blocks. Sure hope he comes back here next year.

And no one get down on Freeman. Played a great game, double double, the end was just inexperience and jitters.

See y'all next October.

We just lost on the trip by LCJ

WOW. Just WOW. And he is really a freshman, having played for 5 minutes last season. And that is an All American honor already! Coach better do whatever it takes to keep him happy. Wine, women, song, cars... I think at this point he could literally play for any team in the country. And he saved our bacon last night. Two monster boards when we really needed them, and a monster block on Plowden that let some of the air out of his tires. And yes, Mballa is an animal. Wish we had him.

What time?

Don't you? GIANT block of Plowden
