I have just become a huge AT fan!! If you read the article about his redshirt this season you can see he just "gets it" to quote another thread. The kid is 6'10", can flat out run the floor and can shoot near the basket with either hand. I can see by his Jr-Sr years of eligibility that he & Egolf can both be those multi-dimensional bigs who give other teams fits because they can do it all.

I may be drunk on the kool-aid, but this to me is just another sign that this b-ball program is headed in a direction few of us have seen.
