Player Outlook: Jordan Prosser

[Braves4Life]

Physical strength may be ok but physical endurance might be another issue.

I think JP will be a good player for BU and will contribute this year but he will be going up against older and mature players and will have his hands full much of the time.

Maybe he'll be like Wake Forest's James Johnson was his freshman year. I know he may not be quite the talent Johnson was..... but he also won't be playing the same level of competition. Just a thought.....

[real fan]

I look for J.Prosser to play 8 to 10 minutes the 1st half of the season and about 16 minutes once the Valley season begins.

I see it more like 11-13 in non-con and close to 20 against the valley.

I agree, but it isn't going to be an AT or WE freshman year situation. JP is the most game-ready freshman post player we've had since Patrick O'Bryant, and is more fundamentally sound with his back to the basket than POB. He will be a significant player in our post rotation this year.

This is one time where I hope to look back and say: "D@mn, that BradleyBrave WAS right!"

Not to be a debbie downer but the only problem I see is the kid is used to player guys 2-3-4 inches shorter then him. Now he will go against guys his height AND bigger.

I'm not doubting his skill set or the fact he will develop into a very good player for BU but there will be a rude awakening and a learning curve IMO. Lets just hope its a short one....

but if he was shorter and always used to play against kids 2, 3, and 4 inches taller...then you'd say he isn't tall enough!

huh...not sure what you mean.

JP, like MANY "bigger" HS kids (6'7 and above) are more often then not matched up against other teams centers that are often 6'5" and shorter.

Alls I am saying is those days are over. EVERY nite JP will match up against guys his height and taller and as strong and stronger.

He'll be fine but there will be a definite learning curve IMO.......thats all.

I agree with you dog these won't be unsized and unpolished farm boys he will be up against He will be fine but there will be a definite learning curve So I still think he will do much better this year at the 4

I completely agree with this! I'm certainly hoping to see JP in the game alongside WE or SS.

Nice hair but your rating's have dropped just a little with this one
