In response to Bison54
The roster has an update of weight for Alex Timmerman to 267 pounds. Hopefully shedding those 27 pounds will help him improve his mobility and become a factor.
The new roster shows a number of interesting items. The bigger ones:
- Paul Newman: now 225 lbs, was 245 lbs. Should help his mobility, but will he still have the strength/bulk to battle the bigger centers in the post?
- Andre Screen: now 7-0 230 lbs; was 6-11 210 lbs on HS roster last fall.
- Alex Timmermann : now 6-9 267 lbs; was 294 lbs. Is that enough weight loss? Was listed at 245 lbs as HS senior.
- Jake van der Heijden: now 6-9 225 lbs, was 6-8 212 lbs
- Malachi Rhodes: now 6-8 246 lbs; was 6-8 225 lbs. I think he has the body type to handle another 20 pounds if it came from the weight room or natural growth.
- John Meeks: weight down from 230 to 224.
- Miles Latimer: now 6-4 186 lbs; was 6-3 190 lbs on Stony Brook roster. With the Bison having very few players between 6-4 and 6-7, even one additional inch of true height will help.
- Josh Adoh: now 6-3 219 lbs; was 6-3 195 lbs on HS roster. Will have to see him on the court, but that sounds like a lot of weight to gain considering his size and style of play.
I know that some teams’ rosters are notoriously inaccurate, but I have found Bucknell to normally be honest based on discussions with players and with parents.
