Random College Basketball Thoughts: 2017-18

I see Trae Young is still wildin, if he could actually play defense and actually had at least decent measurables he'd be a legit lottery pick..As it stands I just don't trust his physical profile and lateral quickness.

Speaking of the Big-12, atm Kansas is about to run through that shyt again - I don't see any team in the conference with enough talent(aside from Texas who lacks the consistency) to win the conference. When Kansas get's Billy Preston back and potentially brings in 2018 5 star post player Silvio De Souza early to play after this
semester - their frontcourt will be good enough to where they don't have to rely on their elite backcourt to play great to win games.


Oh and Michigan State blew out #5 Notre Dame last night days after humiliating UNC... they're looking like a certified National Championship caliber juggernaut.

They have all the ingredients, Izzo might hang another banner this year.

Things should get more interesting in the Big 12 once Esa Ahmad is back for WVU. And Texas like you said, they just need to get past the problems that come with having a younger team.

I'm personally not a fan of De Sousa, I followed him closely during U19 play and I don't think he'll make much of an impact at Kansas besides being a good rebounder. But that's what they want out of him I suppose.

It's between him and Bonzie right now, and I'd give the edge to Bonzie.. Unless Trae Young somehow manages to keep up this pace it'll probably be one of those two. Jordan Murphy could be a darkhorse as well.

Luke Maye playing better than Bonzi right now. In fact, him and Bagley are 1 and 2 in the ACC in points and rebounds. Got the same number of dbl dbls too.

And Bonzie is playing better defense than both of them

Depends who else you have around him. In general, he's probably best suited for the 4.

McCoy already with 4 turnovers half way through the first. The biggest game of the season for him to boost his stock too.
