Just curious. Anyone else notice George Conditt’s listed roster size yet? With that much muscle, looks like time for him to put it all together.

 
I went back and looked, and he was 205 lbs coming out of HS..... so he's added 40 lbs since then.

As long as he can still run the court like he always has.... this should help him not get thrown around under the basket.

He is a guy that at times looks like a real intimidator in the middle, and then sorta disappears. Loves to swat a the ball, but sometimes loses his guy trying to get that big block. Hopefully another year will provide some improvements in defense and scoring.
 
There is only one "Big George" at ISU, and I will give you a hint-football. George Amundson was a running back who the next year was the stating quarterback and still holds track records for his age.
 
Always thought if he could add some muscle to that frame of his and his skillset he could be a really good post player in the Big 12. Problem is he will probably have to earn his minutes off the bench because we never have seen him and Solo on the court at the same time and I doubt Foster is going to serve at the backup 5 as a freshman that is probably better suited to play as a stretch 4. He got his shot as the starter for a bit last year and Solo just outworked him to get his spot back. Would be really nice if he makes that leap forward in his development this year and is a beast as the 6th man on this roster any you have some nightmare matchups with him and Foster likely coming off the bench. When Conditt is dialed in and playing at his best he is fun to watch and one of the best players on the roster.
 
I noticed from some of the videos they put out that Tre Jackson looks quite a bit stronger too.
