Zuby “Beast II”

Every opportunity to start at 4, backup at 5. I didnt say anything about a promise of a set # of minutes but i bet he averages 24 +/- a couple.

Would bet the house he is in the starting lineup when the first ball drops.
Agree on the minutes, kind of regardless of what happens roster-wise.

But if we add Dillon Mitchell, I think Zuby will have to get the bulk of his minutes at center.

Would bet the house he is in the starting lineup when the first ball drops and not at the 5 unless there is an injury.
Cant afford to lose the house but beers on me if zuby begins the season as our starting 4 man.
 
We only signed Vince because the staff believes so much in Zuby.

If you plan to use Zuby as your 5 you need a plan for the Clingans of the country. That’s what Vince is there for. I like it. I don’t see the ceiling you guys do. I don’t see a kid stepping out and keeping forwards honest on a regular basis like Cliff O.

I know this is the portion of the year we become unrealistic, but put that on Maker not Vince. Maker is the gem.
 
I can only say how happy I am and how proud I am of this kid.

Failures in big moments are litmus tests to character. Do you crumble and fold, irrevocably changed by failure? Or do you courageously move forward, prepare, and use it as a growth experience and rebound.

Zuby, with a great support network at home along with the advice of a friend, chose the latter. He bested a possible lottery pick, and as if to prove a point, went 12-13 from the foul line vs. Georgia.

The Baylor loss may just prove to be very bad news for the Big East. Zuby is ready to serve notice. Very quickly, with very hard work (he spent the summer in Queens practicing) his star is rising quickly and brightly.

As John Wooden liked to say, "Sports doesn’t build character. It reveals it."

Congrats to Zuby!
