NT03, I still think shooting guard is a weakness. I'm not a Walton fan and would rather give the local freshman the nod. Overlander is not an athelete and will struggle against quicker guards. He will, however, fill a key role for this team. He has grown on me throughout the season and I think will be a more consistent shooter. I maintain that JJ signed him too early before seeing if he could have upgraded the team more.

I also penciled him in ahead of Alzee because I don't like a point guard tandem of Chris Jones and Alzee Williams together. We need to open things up for Mitchell, Odoh & Patton. Hearing a Dallas area kid (impact player) maybe be looking to come home due to a lack of playing time and being home sick. This kid would be a major impact player for us.. Has not officially asked for or been granted his release.

Looks like Kimball is up at halftime in Austin, If they win, I'm off to see Overlander (Argyle), Kimball & FM Marcus Saturday bring home the gold!

Glad to see that some are now giving Odoh a little more love. Seems like some were questioning his athleticism, but I saw nothing of the kind in either of the games that I saw him play this season. Extremely athletic with great acceleration running the court. He may be a little raw offensively, and he may be a little slim (although obviously very strong), but I think he will be a great compliment to this team next season. Let's just hope they all return.

First, I think Odoh will be a great addition next year, but...

I would not call him extremely athletic. He is athletic enough, but will not make your jaw drop. He has good leaping ability, but in basketball, being a quick leaper is as or more important than how high you can jump. Odoh, unlike Mitchell, is not a really quick leaper.

When I saw him play, Odoh looked slightly doughy, not skinny, definitely not fat, but looked like he could use some redistribution of weight (about 10 pounds) from his stomach to his chest and shoulders. Hoping he comes for summer semester so he can get on the weight program pronto.

Like I said, a nice addition. But needs improvement before next year.
