He would give you that inside presence you're asking for, though.

I don't think our bigs are good enough perimeter shooters or passers to force teams to open up the low post for our guards to operate (I cannot envision Jobe, Pritchard, et al triggering the UCLA High Post offense).

Has anyone in the media asked this question to Crean?

Is the only answer just “He's not ready?” It's just a bit baffling. What are we missing in practice, etc that keeps Bawa off the floor? Is he really that fragile mentally to think that he can't handle making a few mistakes on the court?

3. J. Rivers played an active game and love the 6-7-10…however no more reverse pivot passes…

4. We have NO inside game and I don't know who is on the radar to address that….outside of Plumlee….Zeller is not a back to basket player……Could we go JUCO?

5. Dumes playing well prior to the MD game was good to see but I don't like his 'on edge of punching someone chippyness'…I saw it a couple of times and he HAS to get that under control.
