I think that’s a bit of an exaggeration. Whether he develops into a star or not yeah maybe but he’s already capable of being a good defensive starter and lob threat. He would have played a lot more if not for Self’s marriage Hunter Dickinson.
I’d be thrilled if Flory was our starting 5 next year

Oh he’s a star. It’s just a question of what kind of players he’s going to be.

If we land him this is almost identical to our path with Walker Kessler. Narrowly lose out on him to a blue boood where he goes to play sparingly behind a veteran. Comes back home.. becomes an All American DPOY candidate?

Flory is athletic enough and has the wingspan to make up for only being 6’9. Believe he has a 7’2 wingspan.

That sounds encouraging. I was thinking we need another taller big for rebounding.
Posted on 4/3/25 at 11:09 pm to smuphy72
Exactly what I’ve heard - 7’2 wingspan.

We will still need another big for sure

Did we get Flory?

As of right now, yes.
And supposedly some Euroleague kid named Omer Mayer.

How tall is Mayer? Never mind. I looked him up and he is a point guard. Still need a big.

So, not yet but all signs are pointing in the right direction?

Is he the Tahaad goes pro backup plan?
Posted on 4/4/25 at 10:17 am to auburnnyc94
He's a tall PG. Kind of a novelty for us

Yes
Yaxel is Auburn, Michigan, Kentucky now. We’re pushing hard though.
Mostly Au/Michigan battle right now.
Flory’s name kind of cooling off a bit.
Jayden Quaintenance name is picking up some steam at the 5. 17 years old, decent player at Arizona State also former 5 star.
Coming off ACL surgery though. Has a HUGE upside.

Am I the only person that thinks we need a big closer to 7’. I would really like to see that happen.

So, was he 16 going into this season at Arizona State? I guess he could have just turned 17. Hell, he's young even for this recruiting cycle, much lost the last.

quote:Scouting report notes: He’s 6-foot-9 with massively long arms (7-foot-3-plus wingspan), vertical athleticism, a strong frame, good hands, soft touch, shooting potential, natural face-up skill, and signs of a passing instinct. He also runs the floor well and is a solid rebounder when he commits himself. He’s also extremely young for the class. He won’t turn 17 until July of 2024.
So, was he 16 going into this season at Arizona State? I guess he could have just turned 17.

He was 17 this year and turns 18 this July.

I keep thinking if Florida has that 7’9” next year playing we could be in trouble.
