^^and the year before that he was one of the best freshmen in the league. And at the beginning of last year, he played ok, it was only after he started playing baseball that he started sucking.

So who knows which Brackman we'll see. Either way, it's good to have his experience and size.

the guy had a fucking stress fracture for gods sake.

He had a bad season overall, but he started strong... does anyone remember that?

We're not talking about a top 10 or top 20 recruit. This guy was never supposed to be Tyler Hansborough or anything.

We have absolutely no depth to speak of next year, so if you think we'd be better by losing our starting center you're an idiot.

He can score and he's a very good shot blocker. His rebounding is very weak and he needs to focus on that. He lost a lot of agility and quickness last year because he was adjusting to his new body weight, so hopefully he'll be more comfortable this year.

I'd be willing to bet he's 10-12 ppg next year easily if he's healthy.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but rally's 100% right. The Brackman haters are morons.
