Need to have a forward like Jones out there developing.  I still think the kid can end up pretty good before all is said and done. Strong and athletic kid.  If we by chance have one PF injured at a point this season, we'd be lucky to have Jones there.  Gift more likely to split some time at center as he's the only other "center" we have on the roster aside from Obekpa.  I don't see Jones redshirting.  Balamou more likely if anybody IMO.

I didn't make my point clear enough. We could have used gift last year. Also he would have exhausted his eligibility and we could have gotten a better juco forward, who is bigger and could rebound. Last year useful. This year 9th man
+1 and he would be helpful next year as well.

Who is this bigger and better Juco forward we could have gotten?

Forget his name but he plays on the same team as Bobre's PG.  ;)

Oh and to Pat, c'mon . . . anyone can redshirt and practice with the team any time they want too, like 80% of the non NFL bound NCAA football players do.   You knew that.

A depressing thought came to me. When was the last time we won an NCAA tourney game?

2000. We beat Northern Arizona. Barely.

Don't follow recruiting like many of you. Just don't have much faith in gift. There has to be many players better
