I thought dude was the next AD? Is he still on that roster? Why I never hear of dude? I don't follow college basketball but I do know about some of the niccas on there that suppose to go pro. Just strange cause I remember folks locking dude down as the #1 pick.

He's soft. A big that can't rebound on the college level and gets pushed around under the basket. He probably should stay a year or 2 to see if he can develop his body and be able to hold position and get tougher, but he also runs the risk of getting further exposed and seeing his draft stock plummet more every year if those things don't happen.

Damn I thought he had the juice.

I was wondering what you were gonna say. Appreciate you keeping it real.
he has a good looking jumper but he is a very weird big. Instead of a jump hook his go to are fadeaway jumpers, which he actually has amazing form on but has zero confidence right now to even hit them. He has spurts where he is really good on defense, but again, he's soft and fouls a fukk ton and watches rebounds instead of going for them.

His rebounding instincts are basically non existent from what ive seen. Just has no feel for when and how the ball is coming off the rim. He still could end up being a lightweight Serge Ibaka jr. though. A shotblocking for with range on his jumpshooter that is a poor rebounder. There's a spot available for that type, especially if he can extend his range out to the 3 pt line. If there's a strong rebounding center next to him it could work.

Skal needs to stay in college another year at least. But if he gets that first round grade like I think he will then he probably will be out. The shine is off of him now and if he goes back to Kentucky next year and doesn't look any better then he may play himself out of the first altogether.
