Bullock is a bull! Sa & Thiam both listed at 6'9" but looks like Sa has an inch on him. Can't wait to watch them play.

Haha I think some good strength and conditioning will do them both good. Bullock looks like he can play OLine for Ash and Thiam looks like a stick.

I'm pretty sure a Thiam knows his legs are toothpicks. So are mine. Who cares?

Use Bullock as a potential Draymond Green type of player. Use him at the 3-4 and you still have him as a outside threat on the offensive end.

So far, his mentality is a powerful player. Continue that. If you have a lineup of Sanders, Johnson, Laurent, Bullock, Sa- you have three people that are comfortable with being around the basket for rebounds.

Pikiell has the best eyes. I know that. Just my .02.

He's 6-3 and you're going to use him at the 4? This isn't high school.

Our SF spot gets real interesting this year. Laurent can run around you, Thiam can shoot over you, and Bullock can back you into the third row. It will make for real interesting mismatches.

Can also see Corey, Nigel, and Mike Williams playing at the same time.

I would love to see that as well, but unless all three play north of 30 minutes a game, we won't have enough minutes for both guard positions.

This is a different era but Phil Sellers played PF and was First Team Associated Press All American at 6'4". Personally I don't see Bullock playing PF but I believe he can play SF as well as some guard. He will not back down from anyone if he plays like I've seen him play many times. He might even be able to play PF for a few minutes in an emergency situation.

He is 6-4 as stated. He does not have the mindset of a guard though besides the shooting. You cannot change his mindset. He likes to battle. Why not put him in a position where he can do that?

He played against one of the best power forwards in the class, Miles Bridges, and had a 10 an 10 game, something like that.

That is a lot different then getting a double double with 10 D1 players on court and most taller and some probably stronger. Looking at his photo and as unfair as it sounds, he doesn't look like a D1 basketball player. Hopefully, he can contribute.

He's a 6'4", can shoot the rock, and he busts his *** all game long according to everyone who has seen him. Tell you what I can name you 25+ Rivals Top 150 players in the last 20 years that did little for this program. Maybe I'll try this type of non-D1 player for once.

Sellers was an incoming freshman 44 years ago. And he didn't play 18 Big Ten conference games a year.
