I think Jess Settles has one more year of eligibility left.
I watched New Mexico beat down #6 ranked San Diego State last night. San Diego has lanky guys with long arms at the #4 and #5, finesses players who rely on quickness and hops.
New Mexico has two strong bulky guys at the #4 and #5 and they completely dominated. They pushed the San Diego St guys around with no problem at all and won the game by 14 points, and had them beaten by 21 points with about 6 minutes left. The Australian power forward for New Mexico is the best power forward I've seen play all year and I've watched a lot of hoops in a lot of conferences.
Iowa will not have one big strong, bulky guy on their roster next year. Olaseni, Woodbury, Uthoff, and White will continue to be finesse-type players. I think Iowa needs to start recruiting bulky guys with big posteriors with potential to add muscle weight. Olaseni, Woodbury, Uthoff, and White don't have the body types to add a lot of bulk and muscle, because they are sticks basically.
