If you could add one college player to this team for next year, who would it be?

Interested to see what people think.

Just going to go with my first thought which is Mitch McGary. We need a bruiser down low to rebound and I think he has the potential to be one of the best this year.

Who's the best big still in college? McGary, maybe?

If Joel Embiid is as good as everyone says, him. It's UConns least proven position and I can't think of many good centers out there this year. I kind of prefer Montrezl over McGary.

Of course Wiggins would be awesome at the three but Calhoun is more than proven.

Brandon Ashley. Arizona.

 

[Burnsbros23]

Not Embidd he's raw. Why Ashely hes a 6'7 PF?

Gotta add a five Harrell, Maybe the kid Cauley-Stein, McGary I guess.............. Roscoe Smith........

He's going to be very good.

 

[champs99and04]

The first three names that came to my mind were McGary, Randle, and Cauley-Stein. I think I'd go with McGary.

Hands down Roscoe

Interesting question...

I think Reddic will explode on the scene this year in college basketball. He would be a great fit with our roster in 2013-14. Unselfish and can really run the floor. A good team chemistry player.

McGary and it's not close......perfect!!

We don't really need another star so I'll go with God's Gift from St. John's for some post presence. My lottery pick type of player would be Mcgary.

Chris Obekpa...love his tenacity and nose for the ball. Wouldn't have to run any plays for him...let 'em eat glass and block shots...just plug 'em right in.

Wait....What?

44% at the line last year for McGary. I would rather have a big connecting at a 70% clip from the line that can crash the boards.

Seriously

O. Sanchez will log more minutes then Gift this year @ St. Johns...

 

[Gurleyman]

All-time, I'll go with Alcindor. He could get us an inside bucket or two.

4 blocks per game as a frosh. 6 rpg.

Adreian Payne was still a litle lost when we played MSU in Germany last year but he improved alot as the season went on. He's a solid big that patrols the paint...but i'd prob prefer McGary

It's difficult to find a big who can rebound, protect the rim, and shoot free throws. If you can find somebody who can rebound at McGary's rate and shoot 70% from the line I'll gladly take him. I think McGary would be the perfect fit, though, because he can solve all our rebounding problems, plus, he can get his 10 to 14 points without having a play run for him. He would be the perfect fit for our guard dominated offense, and as you saw in the final four, he also has the ability to pick zones apart from the high post with his exceptional court vision. Great player, and he's only beginning to scratch the surface.

The first guy that came to my mind was Trevor Lacy , but we have Omar. I chose Gift as a marginal / serviceable big body to share time with our guys and he came to first. I think our current is good enough to win but the five spot is a question mark. Does the team need a Drummond / Mcgary type player to get to a final four or can this team get there with a Okwandu type player?

 

[Burnsbros23]

ur joking right? didn't Gods Gift redshirt last year.
