To me, he looks like if Trevion Williams wasn’t fat

WE DID IT SHAK!!

Wow…. hurt…


No joke, I thought of this yesterday, i decided I’m giving up on him. This is also doesn’t bode well for Amari because I liked him immediately when I saw that passing! :lol:

I was thinking Trevion Williams too, similar passing. Thought he had a chance to make it.

I just knew he would make it eventually. Love a passing big!

No so you better do a good job of explaining it


Students complained. Heinz ignored their pleas. Pranksters modified the sign, in that they increased the number by 12.

We've drafted two Euros so far, so there's a trend. Any intriguing Euro still available?

Lob threat, rim protector, oddly good passing skills, no shot… are Rob Williams comparisons valid?

I'm hoping for Will Richard at 57..

Good shooter..and just helped Florida win the national title.

Al will love having another Gator on the squad.

Do it, Brad!

Although if we go for a PG (since we got a big with Amari and a wing with Hugo) then really the only good PG left is Ryan Nembhard so I want either Richard or Nembhard at 57..

Williams achieved a rare statistical milestone, becoming only the second player in SEC history to record at least 375 points, 300 rebounds, 100 assists, 40 blocks, and 20 steals in a single season.
