I believe Tre is more of an energy guy and not a traditional back to the basket big. You have to believe brooks will redshirt. Scott isnt going to play the 5 ever and it looks like Hicks can do that. It looks to me they want another big. So if one commits its between Hicks and Holden for that spot. Still need a 2-3 guard

Doesn't sound like that's going to happen.

No idea. Some places have him listed as a Center. Must be able to use his body to create some space down on the block

He kind of looks like he is going in slow motion when he is moving with the ball but I do love how aggressive he is when he dunks the basketball.

He said in an interview that he wants to go to a school where he can play immediately and it looks like Providence is the leader.

If Washington gets in foul trouble, I think I'd rather slide Clark to the 5 for better rim protection. Idk.
