Re: Up Next: Drake

I laugh every time I see Van Deest's picture. That is one goofy looking dude. If only he'd do a Friar John bowl cut...

Re: Up Next: Drake

Interesting matchup of really quick guards. Carter and Daniels are decent players. The good news is I think Wes and Deon will tower over these guys, they're not big.

How many pounds did he gain since his freshmen year? He was actually pretty good then.

Re: Up Next: Drake

the previous staff wanted him to put on some weight. They got fired and no one told him to stop.

Re: Up Next: Drake

I thought Richard Carter was a football coach at Waterloo East, he looks taller...

Re: Up Next: Drake

wait, they have a player named "Daddy?"

Re: Up Next: Drake

2009-10 roster had him listed at 223.
2013-14 roster has him listed at 269. +46

I think the second weight is a lowball looking at the pictures.

Who's yo daddy cheers!!!!

Re: Up Next: Drake

Who's yo daddy cheers!!!!

I think "We're your Daddy!" would be more appropriate. The former almost sounds like encouragement and I'm sure those clever little eggheads in the Knapp Center have figured out that this is an easy cheer for him. This one gives off more of a "taunting" vibe IMO

Lots of injuries, over his career. He can barely jump. 6'11" and he is more likely to do a lay up than a dunk. I would assume Tuttle can control this match-up

Re: Up Next: Drake

The game is listed on ESPN3 as well. Ill add that and the rest of the notes and scouting report when I can
