I think Diebler's stock is going to raise fast after a camp like this. If he shows off his shooting range and touch and his ability to get to the rack and shoot off the dribble, the scouts will come away very impressed. There is nothing more impressive than a kid being able to knock down a 3 on a consistent basis.

First day of the NBA camp and he is doing just that......good call.

Them two on the same team would be deadly. I think Rose could easily fit the combo 1/2 forumula and Gordon could possibly do the same. I still think they get those two and Evan Turner. That is going to be one heckuva matchup between us and them.

At this point, it seems that Rose and Turner are leaning towards Illinois, teaming them up with Gordon will be a real nice class for them.

I followed more of the football stuff this weekend... how was diebler's strength? From some reports, I had wondered if he would need to redshirt to bulk up. If he's taking the ball inside, perhaps those pontifications were off-base. We definitely could use him right away if he's ready, as I'm not sure Cook will be around for year two.

Diebler does need to add some strength, but he will not RS. That rarely happens in the basketball world nowadays. Cook will be here 2 years in my opinion.

...I would LOVE to get Frease too, but i don't know that there will be room enough for him.
|
I have been singing his praises for awhile now, if he improves his feet, I think we find room for him if he wants to be a Buckeye, but the possiblity is there that we may not have room.

I think you hit the nail on the head...my only addition (hopefully) would be that we also bring in Buford in '08.
|
I agree. Buford would be a huge addition.

I thought the same thing about cook/oden... but with this injury, it may expedite Greg's exodus to the pros (the injury concern of returning will be a lot more real now).

My thinking is that the injury will not be a deciding factor when he decides to turn pro. His progress on the court will be the key.
