Nick Thompson deciding between OU and Utah

[Big Old Booger]

I really wish we could find a true center, but that's a real long shot this late in the game. I don't want a 7 foot stiff, I want someone that can actually contribute.

I agree with this. If they find a 7 foot stiff, they should just ask O to come back.

Though there arent even that many 7 foot stiffs left, i would agree except we are all going to have to come to terms with the fact true centers are not available right now...

We are going to have to sack up, take an undersized guy that is skilled but has not been recruited because of his lack of height and roll with it...I think CJ fits some of this bill because from what i've heard he is more like a 6'6 power forward...

So CJ has committed...and if we can get Thompson alongside him that wouldnt be an terrible down low setup...those two with fitz are undersized, but we can take advantage of their ability to either hit the jump shot or what have you....open the floor and allow our slashers to drive..ect..

And from the video I have seen Thompson played the three some....so to offset not having the one real tall guy we could go like this

1) pg (whomever)
2) clark or cade
3) thompson
4) cj
5) fitz


that would give us overall good height and strength to hopefully offset not having the one real tall center

Dude, that was bad.
