... has a face I just wanna smack. Dude could also be the ugliest runner I have ever seen. Runs like a robot. Overrated too IMO. Just very tall and very strong, nothing special. Unimpressed.

Livers is good. Smith is good. Wagner is good. As expected. Dickinson? Nah. I'll take Myles over him every day of the week.

Dickinson is very very good. We wish we had him. Other games he's absolutely gone off. Easily the freshman of the year in the league.

Kid is a frosh. Unfair to compare him to Myles, but his offensive game is already easily better.

He's a freshman. Myles didn't even see game time at that stage. Wait until he's Myles year.

Robot, smack his face, whatever. We'd kill to have that skill set on our team.

It's very fair to compare him to Myles when he's shown on every graphic of great B1G centers this year in lieu of Myles. But yes, great freshman, good player regardless of age.

Maybe I need to see more, to me he is strong, positions himself well, etc. Effective scorer for a frosh yes. But meh.

He didn't have a good game today.

He averages 2x what Myles does while shooting a higher percentage. We'd kill for that production. Kid can shoot and has a soft touch around the rim. He's a player. Next year he will be the best center in the league.

Would not the better comparison be Myles first year performance vs Hunter this year ?

He’s a true freshman who will be able to have a legal drink in a couple months. Myles was an 18 yr. old true freshman.

Dickinson is 20 but looks like he is about 30. Mamu of Seton Hall also looks so much older than he is. I wish we had Dickinson as a power forward. Someone said he went to the same school that Montez did. Maybe Montez should have told his high school coach to steer him to RU but who knows perhaps he did. Howard is definitely doing a wonderful job with his team as well as in recruiting. Supposedly he has a great class coming in next season.

Dickinson did appear oddly robotic yet he doesn't come off looking too clumsy during play and obviously has some athleticism for someone tall and lean. Besides looking a bit funny when running because of his body style and a more forced-looking upright posture, what I realized as the game went on and then jumped out to me was the way he carries his right arm, how it doesn't naturally move/flow, and appears somewhat stiff and lifeless. Almost looks like it's some kind of palsy but assuming that's not the case.

Lol. He takes strides of about 1 ft when running full out. But he's big and cleans up well around the basket.

As far as young B1Gs goes, nobody has impressed me more than EJ Liddell from OSU. Granted he's a PF and not a C, but he is young, only a soph. That said, dude can flatout BALL. We had no answers for him both times we played them. Offensively he pretty much had his way against us, and showed an array of postup moves and stepback shots. VERY mature game for only a 2nd year player.

Dickinson and Cliff were basically neck and neck in the Rivals Rankings and its clear that Dickinson is the better player as of now. Cliff with a much higher upside but Michigan is getting an immediate impact (that you hope for and expect) for a heralded recruit. We need Cliff to keep getting experience and become a monster over the offseason for us next year for this team to take the next step.

Liddell or Wagner are the type of power forward that Rutgers really needs but are difficult to recruit because of their talent level.

RU doesnt believe in PF's. They just replace them with another guard.
