Mr. JPM114. I have to disagree wholeheartedly with your statement about Yawke .... "He is however a much smarter basketball player who understands concepts on defense. I love the fact that he's a shot blocker who takes charges when that's the play to make." This past season he appeared to be lost on both ends of the floor, has no offensive moves and/or skills whatsoever (other than dunking off a simple pick and go), and often gets caught out of position. Taking a charge was simply a matter of him being in the right place (probably out of his position). I would very much like to see him improve and succeed, but don't see it based on his 16-17 season.
No disrespect but I disagree with both of you.
Kassoum Yakwe is a great kid but after two seasons he has shown very little on both ends of the court. He is not Big East starting material. If he plays major minutes next year I will be very surprised.
As far as Enoch is concerned, he showed very little at Uconn and is a back up center at best. I hope our going after a Uconn reject doesn't mean we are falling out of favor with more talented bigs in prep school. If all the fuss with Matt Abdelmassih was about going after 3 star transfers we are doomed to repeat the Lavin experience (experiment).
