MBK: Wade and Kunc sign with Cougs
- Thread starter ScottHood
- Start date
The three recruits so far has been a good start for the cougs. The cougs need another PG and a big man to make this a very good recruiting class.
It’s not a bad class as far as WSU recruiting goes but by comparison to the rest of the PAC 12 it’s by far the worst class on paper. Potential to prove the experts wrong but coupled with losing 3 starters and our 2 best players from a team that finished second to the last in league and I’d say the men’s program is in the dumpster and sitting way to close to the women’s dumpster that is in flames.
Well thanks for that. No offense to the future Cougs, but Kunc at 6'8" and 190 doesn't send shivers down my spine.
Somebody else on another board asked the question about Kunc statistics...it's been hard to find any. The WSU press release usually lists stats for those who sign LOIs, but none were included with Kunc. Does that mean anything? Perhaps not, but it is strange.
Glad Cougar
Robbie Cowgill came in at probably around 190 tops at 6'10, Kyle Weaver was listed at 6-5" and 185, and Kernich-Drew 6-6" and 180 as freshmen. I wouldn't suggest to simply dismiss it but his current size doesn't necessarily mean a ton especially for a wing.
Kunc appears to have good shooting range, long arms, and some athleticism. If there's something I am more concerned about it's the level of competition he was playing against. It appears light at best.
Do Hendrickson, Franks, and Flynn count? My point was more about weight not necessarily being a deciding factor in a players development but Kent's had players improve under his watch.
Kunc and Elleby have far better talent than people than most people think. There, not being" high on paper "means little to me. We will see who else,Kent brings in. Perhaps,not on paper,but the cougs just may be a better team next year.That may sound crazy but we shall see.
There's a lot of anticipation for Elleby. Kunc is such an unknown the questioning is understandable.
