I hope not though
Adams was never committed to UCLA. They were the perceived favorites to land him since he had visited 3 days before his announcement and being an LA kid but think we upped the NIL at the last minute. [Reply]
Chris Johnson saw his stock fall after a rough senior season at Montverde Academy. He dropped two points from a 94 rating to a 92 rating. He went from the No. 43-ranked prospect to the No. 71-ranked prospect nationally. He’s viewed as the No. 11-ranked combo guard in the class and No. 6-ranked senior in Texas.
It was still the right call to get Dickinson, but our depth for our bigs got worse today. Could’ve been a major strength to bring that guy off the bench. [Reply]

He was our starting center last year, so that’s not too crazy.
We literally had 1 center and Mitch Lightfoot when we won it all.
If we land Mgbako, we’re still loaded. Bill can absolutely play small ball with guys like Marcus Adams and Mgbako at the 3/4 if KJ is in at center. [Reply]

I guess I don't really understand why people think he's going to be amazing. He has no shooting or offensive ability other than dunking lobs. He will be a nice player for defense and rebounds, but if you need a guy who can rim protect and dunk lobs, there will always be plenty of guys who can do that every year in the portal. It hurts our depth possibly this year, but I find it hard to believe next year we can't recruit another guy out of the portal who will match Jr year Udeh unless he has an absolutely unprecedented rise on offense which we have no reason to believe will happen.
