Seems like a great teammate. Love him. Just don’t think he has the skills to play. He can’t give us anything. He’s a stand still shooter that can’t shoot.

I wouldn't call it giving up on him, he just isn't that good. Agree that it stinks to see him struggle b/c he seems like a great kid, but he just isn't good enough to play at this level. Not a good ball handler, not a good passer, doesn't have great height, not a good shooter, and on and on. I'm fine with him staying and eating up a scholarship because I don't like pushing a kid out who has a good attitude, but he won't be seeing valuable minutes anytime soon.

Well plenty are comparing him to Brooks. Brooks was an all league type player (probably would have been the best big in the AAC if he stayed for his senior year).

Vogt is better than I expected. Excellent against small guys, but a net negative against teams who can match his size.

For the record I was not a fan of Kyle Washington either. I've only watched Cronin/Huggin's teams. So maybe it's just what I'm used to. Bigs who are liabilities on defense just don't sit well with me.

I'm mostly hoping Diarra gets more of an opportunity and eventually starts. Diarra has far more potential and is better at defense and rebounding.

So you think Diarra is better than Vogt? At anything? That’s an interesting point of view. Yeah we all want Diarra to be good but he hasn’t shown anything. Vogt is actually doing it. In real life. Potential is great if they ever meet it. I heard Shaq Thomas had potential for 4 years

He just did it with UCLA. You know...with a new team, kids he didn't recruit, trying to put his system in place. Sound familiar?
