Let's hope we will practice entry passes this offseason to be able to take advantage of his backdown game as Pearl mentions.

The words of the famous @augolf1716 ...."decent pickup"  

[CCTAU 3,316]

It’s so nice to see a big name recruit looking at AU and feel we have better than a snowballs chance in hell. 
Thank you CBP!

I admit that this makes me wonder how the big man rotation will go this year. I presume Yohan will be primarily playing the 4 and the 5 will be manned by Broome and Cardwell.

Smarter passing from the guards should be 90% of what we practice honestly 

Can’t even list how many times Kessler or Jabari would have to get the ball farther than they wanted (or not get it at all, in Kessler’s case)…once again, this SHOULD (!!!!!) be a team that should be able to dominate with size and athleticism around the rim

Jaylin and/or Yohan could get minutes there in case of emergency or injury, but with how athletic Broome is, I really don’t feel like there’s much dropoff in ability to move between him and Yohan. Now, I’m primarily using the time we played them as evidence for that, but I felt like he moves well

And if Kessler didn’t have good hands a lot ofvthose lazy congested passes wouldn’t have gotten to him. 
 

some of these guys must have been told they had to get it inside so they forced. Guys like Jaylin, even flan are not good passers.

Jaylin needs to work on his 3 ball to make it more consistent, because that's his offensive bread and butter. 

Allen, on the other hand, definitely has it in him to be a good passer, but he's gotta get over this mental block and get back to where he was two seasons ago.

Not sure about that. Never seen him as a 3 ball guy nor was he brought here to fill that role.

[AUApostle 7,651]

Just discovered his name is pronounced Juh-NIGH.  I was thinking it was Joe-nee.

[aubearcat 2,137]

🤔, I was thinking Jon-nee

[Rednilla 5,390]

Well, it appears we just might be on the verge of putting together an even more formidable team for this season than we did last season...which seems nuts when we had two All-Americans on the team...

Thank you for this he has a lot of talent.  Handles ball well, Drop step , quick dribble drive, Face up Mid range shot, uses his body well, plays tough defense. He is a complete Center.   With him and Cardwell at Center we will be strong there, Traore and Williams at PF and we will be strong there, Westry, Flanigan, and Moore at SF again we will be strong there. PG we have Zep, Green, and Donaldson we will be solid not great unless Donaldson comes on, SG we could have different players Green, KD, maybe Flanigan and maybe Westry.   If we get Phillips we become even better.

The key to this team will be guard play, can they learn how to feed our big men, hit a reasonable % on 3 by taking better 3's then last year and play tough D. As much talent as we will have in the front Court we have to be smart and feed that talents when they have good position.
