Thoughts?

 

[bleedingTNorange]

The fact UT's frontcourt starters average 6'7.5" 265lbs and UK's frontcourt averages 6'9.5" 220lbs and features a goofy white kid makes me smile.

If I had't heard all summer about Stokes dominating the post, I'd say that 270 seems too heavy for him. I'm interested to see how well he can move at that weight. If the reports are accurate, he can carry it pretty well.

Starters likely to be
Golden
McRae
Richardson
Maymon
Stokes?

Is Murphy on scholarship?

His body fat has dropped a few percentages, which means he is absolutely cut up and added muscle apparently while losing the baby fat, scary thought.

Richardson won't be starting.

Stokes
Maymon

Or

Golden
McRae
Edwards
Stokes
Maymon

 

[almirUT]

McRae cannot gain weight to save his life

 

[docholiday]

I would say with 9% body fat Stokes will be fine. The beast will be unstoppable. Needs to work on the Ft's.

I unfortunately don't think it's going to be much improved, I'm hoping for 60-65% ish.

 

[Daloth]

So, basically, outside of one shooting guard, our point guard, and a walk on, they are all 6'5 or over.

It's gonna be a great year.

He has a nice stroke. I think he has a Weezy-like turnaround at the line in him. That said, I don't know if he'll be at Tennessee long enough to make that turnaround. You can only work on so many things at once.

Yea and seeing as how he shot 40-50% in brazil for USA, and then the Italy trip, not looking much improved.
