I like what we have done in offseason but I wish mawein had stayed. He would have played a ton for us next year imo. He is going to be a nobody in that terrible league he is playing in now.

you can't say we didn't fill any of the big spots .. when we signed a big
and 2 guard?? Uzan Otewh Bamasile all can play the 2 .. and between Uzan and Bijan we are better at the back up pg then we were almost all of last season ..
We don't need to take guys just to take guys.
I feel pretty good about our depth 1-4. If somebody is available that can backup the 5 that is better than what we have, I wouldn't mind another capable body there.
Otherwise, at this point, probably just need to roll with what we have.
lol pretty much no team plays 12 guys ..
and if you take 2 more multi year guys you only have 1 scholarship for next years recruiting class ..
If Tanner gets injured, you're comfortable going into the meat of the Big 12 season with Northweather and Godwin at the 5?
My thoughts:
At the 5: Tanner -- I think he will be improved.
Jacob -- primary backup 5
Godwin -- backup 5
Northweather -- backup 5
At the 4: Hill -- I think he will be improved
Jacob -- primary backup 4
B. Schroeder
At the wings: Bamisile and Noland
Oweh, Schroeder and Uzan -- primary backups
Point: Sherfield
Cortes -- primary backup
Uzan
Of course, this assume Sherfield and Bamisile get waivers and we don't get any other players that are good enough to get in the rotation.
all in all, this looks like a better team than last year to me
Jacob probably won't play a single minute at the 5. More of a 3/4. Definitely not a 5.
The idea that a player entering his 4th year can somehow figure out how to become physical and add necessary mass is always far-fetched. Maybe from freshman to sopohmore year, but I gurantee you all the "effort in the gym" the Groves bros are claiming to put in this summer will amount to zero change in their play.Jacob needs to add strength this offseason(which he's doing I hope) and back up Hill at the 4. He's nowhere near quick or athletic enough to guard anything close to a guard. He needs to learn to rebound and mix it up as he's almost 6-10. Because, his only other thing was outside shooting, and that was inconsistent last year. He did mix it up and get some rebounds against Baylor and Tech in the conference tournament, but he needs to do that every night next year.

From the start of big 12 play through the rest of the year. Ou was out rebounded 9x. 3 of those 9 were by 1 reb.
I know a few games we were hammered but we also hammered a few teams on the glass in season.
I think every guy will
Be bigger and stronger when season rolls around again.
