Krampelj is 6'8" and quite athletic. Huff is a long SG. It's going to be fun to see what Mac and Co. are able to do with it. I have a feeling we are going to see a brand of basketball that we haven't seen at Creighton before.
Is Huff a shooting guard? I thought he was a SF, with some minutes as a stretch PF. I totally could be wrong about this as following the recruiting game isn't something I commit a lot of time to, but that stood out. If we had a 6'8" shooting guard, I'd be very happy (and surprised).
I'm very excited about Mr. Thomas. Tough to gauge too much about a guy from highlights alone, but he seems to have the type of athleticism and style of play that is needed in the Big East and for our program going forward. I just had this vision of Mo Watson leading a 3 on 1 break. Khyri Thomas is running the wing readying himself for an alley-oop. Cole is spotting up for a three. And this fast break started with an in-your-face rejection by Patton on the other end (his fourth block of the game). I could live with that. Dare to dream!
Huff's a forward. He can play both SF and PF, which have similar roles in Mac's offense. Where he spends more time will probably be dictated by who fits in/moves to where.
