The Dayton website has removed Kostas’ 2017-18 profile but I dug it up from the depths of the web. His first year he is listed as 190. Last year he was listed as 197. I doubt he put on any bulk during the season last year. So in his two years on campus, he added 7 pounds. Free weight training. Free trainers. Free nutritional guidance. Teammates working on the same goals to build bulk and get stronger and to push each other to work hard. Free access to facilities and he only adds 7 pounds in approximately two years.
This is my point about Kostas. He showed nothing at UD in 2 years that makes me think he is ready for a pro career. I would never dream of speaking for King Rollo, but I think we are on the same page here. It’s what’s currently between his ears that will hold Kostas back. If he can mature in his attitude, actions and commitment, he has the potential to make it. But nothing in his two years at Dayton leads me to buy into the fact he will do that. I hope he proves me wrong.
