Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 1805403, member: 488"] I'm just a bit unclear on why you seem to have pegged kids like Gilbert as a sure thing while expressing hesitancy on somebody like Durham, when they are ranked similarly and in the same class. If you were to say that, developmentally, you have more faith in the staff maximizing what they have in the back court than in the front court, then that would be a fair point...but that's a different discussion. As it stands now, we figure to have at least three highly touted big men with varying skill sets competing for minutes in 2017-18 (Diarra, Durham, Enoch), and that doesn't include however many minutes Larrier or Jackson or insert grad transfer here will play at the four. To re-iterate, our biggest need for '17 is at the wing. We need a Purvis replacement ready to go if they aren't going to skip a beat from what they built in '16, and I don't see that guy on the current roster. [/QUOTE]
