Mcnease?

Putting on weight is easy. All he has to do is wait 20 years and develop a taste for beer & ribs. Piece of cake.

Hahaha! Yep!

 

[Northbase]

Are you agreeing with me or disagreeing?

"If you're not with me, you're against me"!


I've read elsewhere that Manyang is 7'1". Anyone know? 7 or 7'1"?

What little practice was televised I thought McNeace had a nice touch on the ball and appeared to be working very hard.

He hit some nice 10 foot jumpers.

Muscle is gained through lifting. If you ate 1k grams of pure protein a day but didn't lift you'd have nothing to show for it.

On the other hand, I know lots of people who eat 3K calories a day, don't lift, and have "tons" to show for it.

Looks like we may know some of the same people.

McNeace almost sounds like a modern-day Al Beal, in terms of inexperience and body type. Al was 6-9, 190 coming out of high school in 1976 and had only played two years of organized basketball when he got to OU. But he turned out pretty well, although he never probably weighed more than 215 at OU.

Good one.

The coaches think he has tremendous upside. He is athletically able to do things that nobody else on the team can do at this time. Every so often they are just amazed at things he does. However he certainly needs to get stronger.
Playing time next year will be difficult because of all of the bigs. Akola is huge and also has a ton on potential. Dante is going to be very good and Khadeem is developing rapidly. Before he graduates Khadeem actually may play some at the 3.

I can see Lattin defending 3s, but not playing the position offensively.

Agreed. I think it will be a nice advantage against teams that run 4 guard line-ups which are somewhat common in college. Plus, you always want guys who can defend multiple positions because it makes it harder for the other team to find mismatches through screens.
