October 9, 20196 yr Congratulations to Mr Garner. I'm not much of a Basketball follower but looking over the roster it seems that LU has a big group of big guys, more than usual. Is this true or have I not been paying attention?
October 9, 20196 yr I think the physical height of the team has increased over the last few years. It seemed like for years LU had 5'10" starting guards playing against 6' and taller guards. No matter what the players percentages were in high school playing against somebody of similar skill but taller almost every night has to hurt their shooting percentage. Congrats to T.J. Hope he is able to have a very successful senior season.

I noticed only two players under 6'3 on the roster. One listed at 5'10 and one at 6'0. Edited October 10, 20196 yr by lamarfan360
