X is an open floor guy. He has never been a back to basket/stud rebounder. I watched a bit of MSU / IU the other day. Their 6-8/6-9 guys have signficantly more muscle than X does, even more than Josh. So when they put a body on someone, it stays on someone. X just doesn't have the strength to play inside. I wouldn't have a problem with him being on the wing if we had someone else down low. Maybe Toppin can be that guy next year but I don't know what his weight/strength is at this point.
