His best skill is that he's tall.

Luka Garza couldn't make it in the NBA neither will Hunter Dickinson. Both have better basketball skills than Edy. Edy is taller.

IMO the "bigger" question for the jump from college to the pro's is stamina for the speed of the game & so many more games in a season.

If we win today, we must win Saturday. If we lose today, hopefully we get a10 seed. Which makes it a 7 seed if we get hot. but if for some reason and freak of nature Purdue goes cold and Edey gets in foul trouble, and we win, I don't think it gets us off the 8/9 line.

If?

1-8 in last 9 games with Purdue.

Agreed. Won't jump to a 7 with just a win today. And won't drop from a 10 even if we lose.

Trouble with nabbing a center like that in the portal is that he likely is looking for a place where he will be the #1 guy. Would he be that here?

Portal should be closed until April. But, no one on (our) staff is leaving the building to go portal shopping right now.

We recruited him. I imagine it's something we would explore.

This guy dropped this yesterday (I think before either player was officially in the portal)...
