If we feel good about BHH why would we bring this guy in? And he’d only be here a year? Granted he was basically his entire team and I’m sure drew a lot of defensive attention, but his shooting % isn’t that great. Seems like on odd fit tbh

If we think Walker is going to leave then I’d feel better w this guy coming in but I’d hope that he’ll have a vastly different role on the team. Not sure how easy that transition is

I understand that concern, but Gardner had double doubles in games against Houston and Memphis this year. He played competition well above what Anosike played.

I like his rebounding #s, but he’s a low efficiency high volume scorer. W the pieces we have coming in that doesn’t seem ideal. If he’s ok scaling his role back significantly and being more of an opportunistic scorer then ok, but like I said don’t know how easy of a transition that is

If he wants to take a step up in competition, then I assume he realizes his role will change a little. He had about 5-6 games where he shot 36% or below. Had some very good shooting games. A couple of things to consider is that ECU was terrible and I’m assuming he was their go-to player. They played some games short-handed. He also averaged 35 minutes a game, which he would not do at UT. If you place him on a roster with BHH, JJJ, and possibly Fulkerson or anoth transfer, you open up space for him.

He plays below the rim for sure. His highlight vid must show at least 100 made field goals and 5 are dunks - mostly on breakaways. He blocked 32 shots in 3 years.

Good, because I bought in to Anosike and after about 5 games, I knew he wasn't going to be able to help UT, hardly at all.

Yea, but his agility and ball handling skills are good for a guy that size.

Watch this and tell me how this compares to Anosike.

I’m not saying he is a must-get transfer, but he has some game.

Anoskie looked like he could handle the ball in his highlights though. Gardner is playing better competition and will probably be better than EJ if he comes here, but I'd still rather have Wahab or Harrar

Maybe so. I watched about 2 minutes of Anosike’s senior year highlights, and about 90% are in the paint with him either posting up, rolling, or rebounding. Gardner has some highlights where he has the ball at the top of the key and creates his own shot. I think there is a difference, but I do understand the concern.
