Pike doesn't seem to trust him for big minutes as he went back to Wolf after Cliff got in foul trouble but his size inside is something you can't teach and opens up boards for others

He is a little slow and unsure in rotations but he should continue to improve with minutes

Agree. Some were down on him after his first game. Thought he came through tonight especially with Cliff in foul trouble.
Maybe our fouls were true, but refs didn’t call it equally

Another effective 8 minutes with two boards and two points. He has a nice touch on his shot and his size is a huge plus for us.

Looks like a good teammate with a great attitude.

Rooting for the guy to have much success here.

Needs to take all of Woolfolks minutes. I dont understand what Pike sees in Wolf.

I think it was more that he's just coming back from a major injury and with Cliff in foul trouble, he didnt want Ogbole out there for too long

He looked really tired after two minutes. One time he was actually walking up the court after everyone else already gotten there.

It was after Ogbole was on the bench and rested. He could have went back to him for a few minutes then brought in Wolf if he was worried about fatigue

I like O much better than Wolf.

In fairness to Wolf , he’s not a 5.

He's certainly not a 4 in today's game with 0 outside shot

True, but I like the way he clogs up the middle.

At this time he is getting good minutes and he will get more. Need him Saturday to use his size.

He’s athletic enough to play at this level and seems to have decent hands. Of course, his biggest asset is his size. He’s huge. And he’s not shy about mixing it up physically out there. I think he’s got a chance to be good but it will take some time.

After this year I believe he has two left.

He's listed a sophomore on the Rutgers site so that makes sense

At this point, his size to athleticism ratio is enough of a reason for me to want to see him over Wolf in the rotation unless a team really goes small ball.... but at that point who is keeping him off the glass?

My level of confidence that Wolf returns next season has diminished
