Walker Kessler to Auburn
- Thread starter frazor
- Start date
gonna be interesting to see the best back court in college vs the best front court.
Has your fan base decided the guy they didn't want 12 hours ago now makes the team the best front court?
Did Roy Williams no this was calming into that impact is decision to retire? Can't believe hes a big fan of a guy like Bruce pearl. Despite the issues at Carolina…
Did Roy Williams know this result was coming and that impacted his decision to retire? Can't believe hes a fan of Bruce pearl despite the issues Carolina has had
he wasn’t very good until he decided to play AU tbh. he and jabari smith tho....hggnnhhhh
definitely a possibility. bama a very strong team.
I think the inability to adjust has caught up to Roy and a lot of the other Blue blood coaches. Ole Roy probably decided he didn't have the desire to start over again at 70. While he has shown the ability to develop players his use of the big man is antiquated. How he got Kessler to sign to start with is a mystery.
Yea always knew Gonzaga was a stretch. Who would want to go to that liberal shit hole.
i think timme deciding he liked college and chet holmgren made them a non factor. plus, kessler is from the south and his brother works in auburns.
Look who is back from the irrelevant zone. Not much to cheer about lately, right?
"Liberal shit hole?" What does politics have to do with a college kid's desire to transfer?
I didn’t know they were going to make Bama’s backcourt play against Bama’s frontcourt?
A catholic university in Eastern Washington is liberal? hahahaha... I've heard it all.
Doesn't fit CNO's system, doesn't have fast twitch muscles, would not earn many - if any hard hat points, stands flatfooted most of the time, has good hands, a taller and more graceful Galin Smith...
From UNC insiders - Roy absolutely despised the transfer rule... was it the reason he retired ? Not entirely but contributed
i have to say i agree with all of this. spot on.
Can a guy not develop his game? Pearl is one of the best developers in the country and he did great work on Kessler. The potential was there and he’s getting the best out of him.
If he developed him from that to what he is now that fast, Pearl is the greatest ever. I think Kessler was already a lot of what he is. And I’m sure Pearl has helped him. But more likely Pearl knew what he was getting and he’s just put him in a spot to succeed.
I’m not doubting Walker already being good. I just said what I saw from him at UNC which was accurate. Roy didn’t let him play his game and Pearl is. That’s been the difference, but he got a lot better too.
He’s gotten better. He’s gotten better recently. But I think it’s more of Pearl putting him in a spot to succeed.
Players biggest year of improvement is from fresh to soph year... couple that with a coach that plays a style more befitting his skill set.
