My Marlin Defense

I'm looking at the big picture. I can almost guarantee you without placing a wager that the majority of teams that go deep into tournaments have a dominant big man. Whether he's a scorer, shot blocker, or just a clog in the middle. You have these guys, you don't get skunked on rebounds, you get more second chance opportunities, etc.

-Why is it that all NBA teams treasure big men? It's part of basketball. It's what makes good teams great.

Sure we can compete in the Sunbelt with athletic guards/small forwards, but the big center will get you deeper into March.

What's the story on the Thomas kid from Ville Platte H.S.?

6'10" Center
#18 recruit

I know colleges are looking at him as a football player (TE, it think?)....

I wonder if it's grades?

EDIT:

Ok, I see it is grades per Scout. Looks like he's an "old" senior. May go prep/juco route?

This would be a good get
