Averaged 3 points and 2.5 rebounds a game. Video shows a lot of dunking and not much else. Definitely a long term project who could benefit from a redshirt season. I hope we can redshirt both he and Nicolds next season, they are both pretty raw.
If Bradley is indeed eligible next season then we should be done recruiting unless there is a departure we don't know about. I'd say the rotation will look something like this:
PG--Luzcando and Fox
SG--Hansen, Hall and Wilson
SF--Smith and Ezenwa
PF--Solarin and Bradley
C--Magot and Slavik
Not a lot of proven offense there. In my view, the development of Smith, Slavik and Bradley as scorers, and the performance of the freshmen PGs, will be the key to whether ISU can compete for the top 8 and the tournament. The recruiting emphasis next year really has to be on finding shooters/scorers, especially with Hansen graduating.

I love both of the FR guards that Evan's was able to sign. Bradley being eligible is a big plus. The Nicolds and Topalovic signings leave me scratching my head. I don't see them helping out for 3-4 years at best. This class looks really good and really bad all in the same breath.
Time will tell.

Sounds like Magot. Or Preh. Or Tyler. Or Ezenwa.

Agree about the guards. I think there's a lot of potential there. The recruitment of Nicolds and Topalovic seem like a push to me. We lose Garrett Swanson, but then we get Scotty Tyler. We lose Scotty Tyler, and now we'll get Nicolds. A redshirt will help, something neither Swanson or Tyler received.
None of the big men the last couple of seasons have been offensive threats. My guess is Topalovic will redshirt, but will also be mainly used as a defensive weapon down low.
