He was part of that Nation Championship runner up team (mostly on the bench) . Lost to Baylor. Freshman at the time.
Yeah he already has relationship there. Zags could use size. Do they have shooters?
True.
As for shooters? I'm very sure if they do. I'll research that later. Shooters would def help them out too.

Previous mark was just a few days ago! Iowa/LSU.
Before that. 1983 championship game . USC upset defending champs (Louisiana Tech).
The championship game tomorrow (Iowa/South Carolina) could break this record as well, especially with it being on free TV (ABC) , too.

You need space for the big boy to operate. Otherwise guards will crowd him.

NC State trying to make it back for the 1st time since 1983 (won their 2nd championship, beat Houston).
Bama trying to make it for the 1st time in their history.
Defending champs, UConn trying to go back again. Blue bloods of the bunch (5 championships).

True. You are right.
Also, they seem to have some good shooters. Also from what I recall watching some of their games.
Lot of them are returning next season as well.

Yeah a team like Zags getting him will elevate them to contenders. They got a lot of experienced players. Juniors 5th year seniors.

College basketball is the only sport where fans don't want to see top teams go at it. Cinderella stories are fun for the first couple of rounds, but did ANYONE want to watch San Diego State in a final game?
Everyone whines about three pointers ruining basketball. You have two legitimately talented 7 footers, the two top teams in the country, but it's boring for you?

I watched and wanted San Diego State to win.
Tons of Aztecs fans and the city of San Diego did as well. lol

I meant neutral fans of course.
I'd be the only person in the world rooting for Central Florida to win anything if they ever got that far.
