Class act, will fit in well and be a big contributor. Especially on the boards and on D

 

[geechevol]

And has range!

And has range!

Interestingly he shot 42% on 3s last year in conference play. This year 31%

Those were the first highlights of Anosike I've seen. wow! Teams are going to have their hands full dealing with Fulky, Anosike, and Pons down low.

Also, I had no idea dude could stroke 3's. Although he only hit 25% of them, so let's not go crazy there.

Alright folks, I believe the S.S. Tennessee is all-in on next season. Let's go!

Looks like last year he mostly played in the 4 spot. Where will he fit into our depth chart with Corey Walker?

KA-BOOM! Yes, I preferred Cardwell, but I think this kid can immediately help UT, next year. Charles Barkley 2.0 ? I'm predicting Anosike averages 7+ rebounds per game, if he gets 15+ minutes a game. Like somebody else posted, love that UT is his dream school

WELCOME TO TENNESSEE,EJ!

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Has a great stroke from outside for a power forward, will be a great 6 man.

This is my question. Tennessee literally has about seven of the same type of player.

Does Pember redshirt?

Watching his highlights, he has a bit of a Paul Millsap and Richard Hendrix kind of a game, albeit a couple inches shorter than either guy. His ability to rebound and clean up around the basket is what we missed this season and should be a welcomed addition, next year.

As for his effect of Walker, he clearly will take some minutes from him, but that may not be the worst thing for the team. I'd bet Walker, despite adding some good muscle weight since arriving at Hargrave, won't be ready to play 20+ mpg at the 4 spot as a freshman. He is also versatile enough to play the 3 if we elect to go with a bigger lineup, at times. This could push Nkamhoua toward a potential redshirt or possibly a transfer because I see no path for him towards meaningful minutes next season without massive improvement this summer, and he is currently being penalized by not receiving 1-on-1 instruction and drill work with the coaches because of the Covid-19 scare.
