This offseason has confirmed this is a lie. I've seen numerous kids in our league or that I've watched that are now sitting in the Big Ten, ACC, etc.

you mean they don’t have the vertical for high major but are on the bench in high major?

I remember seeing Robbie’s high school highlights and thinking kind of the same thing; a limited athlete that just finds ways to get it done. Augustinas may he similar in that regard.

Regarding Avila, take away the handle, shooting and passing and you have another Jake Kitchell.
I watched him in HS games and you could see his skills BUT it was HS.

No, I'm just saying I saw guys like Paxson Wojcik move up to North Carolina and I don't think he is very athletic. Same with several of the MVC guys that moved up this offseason... none of those guys were superior athletes.

You're probably talking on a different level. When I said he didn't have the vertical for high major, that is what I mean't.

I haven't seen a guy 6'8" from overseas move this well since Ivan Renko

Is he still committed to IU or did he enter the portal?!!?

 

[child]

Are you kidding me this guy looks great! He is what we need a big guy who can help on the inside. He isn't afraid to shoot and take it to the hoop, I just don't see any problem here, great job JS and Crew, go State!

Is Augustinas on campus with roughly the 8000 other students? Or is he still in Lithuanian?

 

[IndyTreeFan]

He's here

He is on campus. He was at the football game against EIU.

He is on campus. He was at the football game against EIU.

He is also on the roster on GoSycamores now, too.

The VMI Swap.

The VMI Swap.

I think we got the better end of that trade.

Kid is putting together some solid numbers so far for VMI.

 

[BlueBleeder]

That's an understatement. Didn't think so at the time, but it now seems like a huge loss for us. Through 4 games he's averaging 21.8 pts and 8 rebounds on 29 minutes per game. That's a hell of a start to the year. Apparently, he just needed a chance to play.

We know who to blame. $chertzy. I thought the kid had promise.

 

[BlueBleeder]

I wasn't looking to blame anyone, just observation. Maybe he busted his ass and worked hard on his game this offseason and that's the difference.....I don't know.
