I know its been mentioned on this board that JUCO basketball doesn't produce as many effective players as it used to, but watching the SDSU Jackrabbitts, what's wrong with getting a 6'7" bruiser like Doug Wilson out of none other than Des Moines (by way of Kirkwood). I don't mean as a transfer, I just mean a guy 'like him' to give us some strength in the low post. He impresses me. A wide body 6'7' that's athletic would seem to be better than a 6'10" who isn't athletic.
I mean, that's what Jones gives us correct? With a little more height and less weight? I don't think we need a team of them.

I want Jones to stay obviously. But I'm talking that Wilson was more athletic, backed guys down in the post, had an offensive game, so-to-speak. Nowhere did I imply I want two more Jones.

If we don’t add shooters, no one will be backing down anyone in the post without getting double/triple teamed.

From what highlights I've seen, Tre King fits that skill-set. He has nice low post moves and can flex out and hit a jumper.

I expect to have at least 4 scholarships available this spring, with the 2 priorities being scoring wing and taller post. After that, they can target specific skill players. I would anticipate a high volume/high % 3 point shooter as the other focus.

Gainey seems to fit the bill of taller post. 6'9'' has him in the same range as Jones/Conditt.
