6 negative reactions sure I’d say is a lot when talking about one of our best defenders vs someone can’t see the floor.

Great game from Watson. No one would normally get excited about 5 boards and a block but he gave us really good minutes tonight and some of those rebounds were at critical moments in the second half.
Very impressed with Watson's energy in the KU game, forgot how long he is. This is the first ISU team in a long time where, if he wants to, TJ can go with a 3 bigs formation for stretches, and Watson is big enough that he can play within that mix (along with Big Country and the Presidents).
Speaking of which, if Jackson can just finish a bit stronger at the rim, he is going to be a handful for every team in the country. He is a legit Big Boy, and he can shoot his FTs as a bonus, very nice!

I am sure I am misremembering but he seems taller to me this year than I remember last year
I have a few videos I’m going to grab from the broadcast. I’ll add it to the list
DWs length and athleticism affects the game so much when he is on the floor. I’d kind of forgotten about that. Also, he has another year in the S&C program under his belt and it shows.
I had this exact thought. There was a camera shot when they were huddle up that I swear it looked like he was the same size as Jefferson
I assume it as simple as he is 9th on the depth chart and TJ plays 8.
IMO - If ISU was 1-15 it could be a topic of discussion- with ISU at 15-1 it’s really not.
Fyi - He was hurt in Maui that’s why he didn’t play there.

Gilbert missing Watson and not hitting him for the easy alley oop but then Watson getting a block to erase a bucket seconds later kind of just sums up his career. He deserved the dunk but the block is such a better representation of how electric he can be as a player. He went baseline to baseline to make that play, I feel like we all saw it coming, it just set up perfect.
TJ ball in one sequence.
Bad thing happens>clean slate>keep working at it and make a play.
