Anyone see the feature on Thon on ESPN just now? Very impressive! He seems like a very humble young man, who just wants to be the best he can be. I hate to think how perfectly he would fit in with our team.
He works with Best Ball Analytics, the same guy who has worked with Kevin Durant, that uses statistics and numbers to help improve players.

Many moons ago a said monkeys would fly out my butt before we'd make another Final Four... this would be a great time to release another round of monkeys."You Just Want to Slap The #### Outta Some People"

And if it's true that we're going after a "top big" I think that only leaves Cheick Diallo as a possibility. Unless we were after Maker or Zimmerman and missed on them.

"Daniels also reports that Maker is likely to enroll during the second semester of the school year. Maker was reportedly considering playing professionally overseas, but is now focused on playing college basketball next season, wherever it may be."
Not that I blame him for looking towards his NBA future, but if WSU were to get a blue-chipper, I would want one who would buy in 100% for the year he is here.The Assman
