Any recruiting whispers?

Green plays a lot bigger than 6’6” like Justin. Good comparison.

It's a valid comparison in terms of both players being undersized forwards with underwhelming athleticism. Of the two, I think it's pretty clear that Champ is the superior athlete. However, he's miles behind Draymond when he was drafted in terms of his ball handling, passing, defending, etc. Draymond's only issue in the eyes of NBA scouts was his limited athletic profile. Champ has massive gaps in his skill set where he just isn't NBA calibre in a particular facet. Draymond didn't.
 
I'd like to think Capel and staff are banging down the doors of BIGS that are out there, that playing time is available, as the lacking in production of the Center position is alarming. Pitt can do better at that position and it's a huge need moving forward.
The lack of recruiting news/updates stinks for us fans, but "hopefully" there's A LOT going on for 2021 and beyond. Scholarships are available, as well as playing time.
