Here is a list if Xavier's last year's roster of BIGS: 6'10" 247 Sean O'Mara, 6'10" 232 Jalen Reynolds, 6'10" 210 Makinde London, 6'10" 240 James Farr and 6'9" 240 RaShid Gaston. This sounds more like a BIG TIME division 1 roster.
Let's not get too euphoric. I know that we are all experincing a "runners high" with the signing of Kostas. We still have NO CENTER on this team. We will be playing very small ball this coming year.
Is there still time to get a center for this year? Or does Archie need to be hitting the transfer wire to get a kid to sit on the bench for a year and have a center for next year?
Rosters are still incomplete for this coming year but it does look like Xavier will also be much smaller in this coming year due to transfer of Makinde London and graduation.

Please keep things in perspective. Steve passed away just a little over 6 weeks ago and you're ranting about the lack of a true center. This isn't euphoria. This is a fanbase/program in need of some good news and is embracing some good news.
