Updated Roster Height and Weights

The more I hear about the grad transfers, the more excited I get. I feel like Beverly and Talley to bring a toughness to our team similar to Hogue. I think Brase will be a Vanderbeken type player with better rebounding.
I think overall we are gonna see a much more slashing style of team that is tough. Basically the type of teams I get annoyed with watching cus they are always in games.

Lewis is a wing or big 2..prob won't guard 2 but he's a wing..Talley is as well a wing but will play the 4 at times in small ball situations..he's a good rebounder.
S Young gaining 5Lbs..lol..guy is already a beast.
Umm ive heard Beverly is going to play a ton and has exceeded expectations. Think you will be surprised at how much Beverly plays
Brase has some offensive skill but he's also a legit 6'9". With Young at 6'7", he gives us another defender and rebounder in the paint. If he regains his agility, he will be a nice player for us this season. Obviously that's a big if.
Beverly could be a security blanket off the bench. Someone that understands their role and doesn't get overwhelmed.

Yeah, I don't see any negativity to him as player/person. We are all just hoping his knee holds up and he can get close to full speed at some point. Love to see him have success here!
Young is 6'8" from the link in the OP. Does it help make your point if you list him shorter?
The biggest thing with Brase is him being 6'9" and can shoot the 3 IMO. It's going to be strange, but we're going to lack 3 point shooters this year IMO. Jackson will be our best, and is proven, but after him it's all question marks. Lewis looks like he will be a stud shooter, but being a freshman it might take him a bit to feel fully comfortable out there at this level.
Wiggi looks to be capable, but nothing great from 3. NWB hasn't shown better than an average 3 pt shot thus far. Talley and Beverly are not going to be dependable at all from 3 IMO.
So if for no other reason, Brase gives us the ability to spread the floor out more and not let teams just pack it in against us all the time.
I still feel like if we has Shayok this year instead of next year, we'd be a near lock for the NCAA tourney. Without him, it's going to be tough to get there IMO, but I hope I'm proven dead wrong.

LOL why so salty? I was going off of memory. Excuse me for being 1 inch off. I'm not sure what point you think I'm trying to make by listing Young at 6'7". My post was about Brase.
Who's salty? I guess I should have assumed you were too lazy to look at the link rather than assume you were fudging the height of one of our players like posters often do on here.
This year is so different than recent years, minutes are up for grabs. We all have our opinions on who might play big roles, but we won't really know until these guys play some games. It is going to be interesting and fun. We got role players from last year, D1 transfers, and some highly thought of freshmen. Who is going to step up?
There will probably be growing pains early on with the amount of youth we have, but I do feel like we have the talent to make the tournament if they start clicking. Young is going to make a big jump this year, and I'm excited to see Lard's athleticism.
