A big with the ability to shoot the ball makes offense so much easier on everyone on the floor. The days of a back to the basket true big are over and we've been positionless for years now. Offense hasn't been the problem. I'm ignoring the Taylor comment because it's just flat laughable.
I'm with you on Schwieger. Loyola totally changed recruiting philosophies and he got left behind because he was one of Porter's guys. He's going to be what we all hoped Duax and Wolf were except he's 6-7 and can really rebound from the wing.
And that's just slight hyperbole (I really don't know how old he actually is), but he really did write something to that effect. It's to this day one of the most jaw-dropping things I've ever read online.

You don’t realize Schweiger was Loyola’s 3rd leading scorer as a freshman and shot 40% from 3. On top of that, he’s 6-7. Between him and the Virginia transfer, our roster is getting a talent upgrade.

I do realize that. But that Loyola team was terrible. This year, when the team was much better, he didn't contribute much. That isn't saying he can't contribute on a good team. But so far he hasn't. Perhaps he just didn't fit in the coach's system once he got his guys in there. Who knows?

I think most of these projections are severely underrating Bond. This is the best recruit UNI has ever had, including AJ Green.
By most accounts, this should be Bond’s team. And Jake saying he’s going let him develop that shot from outside (something he literally wasn’t allowed to do at Virginia) only leans more into him being a GUY.
Heres my guess:
G: Campbell, Taylor, Weisbrod, Schmit
W: Bond, Tytan, Schweiger, Pock
C: Hutson, Rubin
Who starts and minutes are too early to guess. But Jake and the staff love RJ and Campbell. If both start, i assume Schweiger would come off the bench?

I'd expect Weisbrod and Schwieger are the first guys off the bench, unless Jake decides to start Weisbrod at the point instead of RJ, but I doubt that happens.

And that's just slight hyperbole (I really don't know how old he actually is), but he really did write something to that effect. It's to this day one of the most jaw-dropping things I've ever read online.

Cole Henry is eligible to enter the portal again. He's not coming back but it will be interesting to see if Wicks wants him in Laramie.
