I don't mean to be a contrarian here, but in my mind Archie has already bagged a big man...for 2016! New verbal commitment Big K is 6'9" and appears to be still growing. Yes, he handles the ball well, and yes he can put the ball the court. But he has every skill set, albeit perhaps strength, to be a top-flight center with the upside potential to be an NBA 4. So we don't have to wait until 2017; we have a big man, and I for one, couldn't be happier with this recruit this late in the game. No one will replace Big Steve's size and smile, but count me content with big men going into 2016 and 2017.
