looks like a decent midrange jumper

A hook shot! I love it!

If he can gain some inches on his vertical this summer... Seems like everyone else always does with Marshall. Always wanted a big guy who would just clear out a defender and throw it down on them. Kinda like Azubuike did for Kansas.

His jump shot is right handed but almost all of his finishing moves, including those hooks, are lefty. Am I seeing this right? (Pun completely intended)

You beat me to it. Seems a bit ambidextrous.

CMW seems all about development. This is a chance to show his chops.

Re:  Brunk v Durr.

As much as I appreciate Brunk, he was an Earth bound center before his back issues last year..that has likely gotten worse.  He had surgery on a disk issue....having back pain myself, I can tell you that at best when you suffer from back pain you are at best healthy-ish and if it flares up, you are debilitated.  A guy Bruno’s size with back issues likely won’t ever produce at the level at did previously.

After watching more video. Durr is better than I thought.

Nothing against Brunk, but if Durr gets his shot off around the basket, he's one up on Brunk. Brunk had a hard time getting his shots off around the basket.

They couldn't decide whether his name was Durr or Dunn in the article.

Solid pick up and big upgrade over Brunk.

At minimum, fills the need for minutes against some of the Big10 bigs.

Sounds like he plays strong. I have zero clue about USF's offensive system, but sounds like he can rebound and hit FTs.

If he can develop a few power moves to the basket, perhaps we see him and TJD on the floor at the same time occasionally.

I think I like his style better than Brunks.

Welcome to the Hoosier family! Can’t wait to get the season started!

[Southside 1,914]

Anyone familiar with USF's system?

If he and TJD are going to play together.. he needs to be developing his range.  You simply cannot play two posts, consistently. We've seen that song and dance.

I don't think CMW is a 2 post guy from what I read and the 1 in 4 out stuff I watched/read. We will consistently have 4 scoring threats on the perimeter and one guy moving around in the lane as the plays unfold. The lane needs to stay open so plays can develop and the motion offense can work properly. 2 guys in the post would ruin that.

It did for 4 years lol

I can't hardly stand watching two post offenses. So boring.

From a pure player development perspective, you'd want TJD developing range more than Durr, if I understand Woodson's system correctly. In the 41, there are lots of options for the 5 or "in". And TJD really wouldn't be a true post guy in a situation where Durr was the 5. To add, yes we've seen it, but it's been in an Archie system.
