Stefan Moody Committs to FAU Men's Basketball

We may not have the greatest big men this year, but next year we have Dragan, who should be legit and is 7'0, and Bryant, who is 6'9 (i think) and can drive, handle the ball, rebound, and post up.

Those are two really good big men to go with Moody, Taylor, and Gant. And I know, we only have Dragan and Taylor for that one year. But to replace Taylor we have Bertone and a few others. Who will replace Dragan, I do not know, another recruit?

This team will be really, really good.

three things:

first get out the negative. I was at the DePaul game and the only reason why FAU didn't lose by 40+ was because they had walk-ons on the court to get some time in since they never will see time in the Big East. Our big men were awful, fading away from the basket instead of going at it.

I know Jarvis better than 99% of you, i've known him since i was young. He recruits a certain player, when it works, it works great and so far it has worked out well. I'm not as high on him as others but he's done a good job so there's nothing i can say. BUT he needs big men. This team doesn't have great 3 point shooters, it needs some rebounders and guys who get get inside and get nasty. Its very close to working, very close but its still a man or two away from being legit.

This guys moody is a big time recruit, 100% legit. you put him on the court with gnatt (whom I think is the best player on the team), taylor, with two guys who can go to the hoop and with depth on the bench, its easily a top 25 team.

side note…. Kore White has a lot on his shoulders this season to step up. Don't be afraid of the elbows, go to the hoop. Dunk the ball, don't shoot it.

From what I have seen your post is right on.  I hope we wont miss Royster as much as I think we will.  While I think C. White is a big piece, I think Joran McCoy is the guy that needs to step into Roysters shoes and get nasty in the paint this year.

Playing the underdog is one thing, being the team that everybody is shooting to beat is another.  Will be intersting to see how it plays out.  Hope some of you that are football fans and not so much basketball try to come to some games this season, they are a lot of fun.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

+1

To add:

When you have what we will have on the perimeter in 2012-13, it's going to be awfully hard to slow us down on offense…The team speed is shaping up to be silly!

So, you give up some boards underneath and get banged hard when you face a team who has a big man that can play…but last I looked, the Sun Belt doesn't.

But we will next year.

Check out this vid of Moody, he's the one with the short dreads early in the dunk contest against a taller opponent, and then later around 2:20...

Re: Stefan Moody Committs to FAU Men's Basketball

this team has enough guys to run a full court press for 40 minutes. i would like to see that. it would make up for the lack of size.

this kid looks good. futures is bright.

espn.com is showing a guy named stephen blair, very highly ranked and has size 6'8", would love to get him.

I agree 100% with you Exit39. With 6 QUALITY guards, keep running them out there with full-court pressure on all three lines (a hockey term I know but totally appropriate here). Our 2nd and 3rd lines would decimate theirs and we run away - that or they try to keep their starters out there and by the 4th qtr., they are dead!
