I can't name one player in the history of time for K-State that subs in late in a game to chuck up threes who doesn't play regular minutes. This will be a wait and see process.

I'm not ready to oscar off Tre by any means. He is not a Jack Krap. Did we reach in offering him? Maybe, but we didn't get another commit to move out Jack so I don't see it as a big deal having him on the squad. I have confidence in this staff to cut people loose if we need to open up scholly space.

hope Edwards' shooting improvement is true

It is. He also might well be the most athletic guy in an EMAW uniform that I've ever personally seen.

I hesitate to call Tre Harris a DITR, but I am leaning towards the possibility that Ol' oscar found another good baller who was being over looked.

He reminds me of a more athletic, less offensively talented Fred Brown in person.

I'm not sure. As bad he looked last season, it sounds like the staff still loves his game. His HS highlight tape isn't terrible either.

Meh, would take.

Michael Beasley and Bill Walker played here. You sure about that statement still?
I think this yoman guy is on to something....

Notice I said "might." Beasley wasn't necessarily jump out of the gym athletic...I think he would give Walker a run for his money as well.

Harmon, you just discredited everything you said in this thread, and probably everything you've ever said in your life.

I never said Beaz couldn't get up, I just personally would give JE the slight edge. Walker and (since I totally forgot about him) Judge were likely the two most athletic guys at KSU in my lifetime. I guess I just don't remember Beaz throwing down insane reverse alley oops in games...

being athletic doesnt necessarily mean you have to be an awesome dunker (beas could throw that crap down so it doesnt even matter)

True, although that's usually a pretty decent indicator. Should be a fun season regardless of all that, tho.

I, for one, hope that Harm-dog is dead on about this youngster.

I've heard extremely high praise for Edwards, foster said he was better, harmon confirms i guess.  I would think he's at least gonna be pretty good.

If Edwards truely has a 46" max vertical it is easily the highest post Huggins. Probably the highest for the entire big 12 for that era. Mike's max vert was 35".

Wiggins was 44". I have zero confidence that 46" is correct.

Dom was crazy athletic.   What about Awaji?   That dude had hops for weeks.

Yep what a stud athlete that Buchi Awaji was, just couldn't understand the play book.

Never really got to see if he had much skill but watching him sky for rebounds was always impressive.

I've seen JE in practice and dominated the scrimmage. Best player on the floor. Will be fun to see him and MF on the floor at the same time.
