I'd take him back. He's perfect for Pope's system as a 5 man.

I can't blame him that he followed Cal. Cal was like his father figure over here after he arrived in the states.

For those judging the kid based on following Cal's brainwashing, just imagine what you might do if you were in his shoes: new country, away from family, young and impressionable, in a place where you barely understand the language.

The only common element in all of Big Z's process has been Cal. Plus, Cal is sensational at brainwashing young minds.

Cal's the one who sucks in this situation, not Big Z.

Really? Thats hilarious. He has a lot more upside.
What is the upside? He is the exact same soft and goofy player that he was last year. He made no attempt to improve in areas where he really just needed to put in the work. If he’s not willing to do that at this stage in his career then what is his upside?

Nah.

He doesn't play now bc he's weak.

And on our team where rebounding is a constant focus, we don't need someone weak, especially in this physical of a conference.

I'm glad he hit threes against the worst team in the SEC last year...that was fun atleast

You do you, but I think most of BBN would be fine with Big Z returning as a backup big in the fantasy world where this happens. Next year we would have 15 scholarships. Pope will likely use 13 or 14 of those.

You don't need multiple guys who do the same thing. This current UK team is evidence of that.
