ROB T: I think Gib and staff are on it. With injury to Caleb, have to get athletic big who can play 4/5. At least a couple. With athletic hi flyers, mistake erasing shot blocker, followup slam dunks off tip rebounds, and just flying around, transition fast break and flush. UH MBB team can match up, and out hustle Irvine, and any BWC team trying to go Big. Weird, ain’t it? Irvine and some other BWC teams, recruited, or had RS’s that were Big to match UH’s Bigs, when UH had Vander. My, the tables have turned.
Come on Gib , lock up a couple of 4/5 athletic guys 6’9″ to 6’11” who can play that Louisville of the Pacific pressing D style, would be real fun BB team to watch for next 3 or 4 years!

Brian, I think that Rozitis and Jovanovich are ready to step up and battle Bigs for Irvine. It is in reverse from last year with Vander. UH’s bigs, ability to step out and shoot mid to 3 line, and footspeed, can make up for lack of size. I swear that Davis, is taller than 7 feet, probably close to 7’1″ plus an eighth, the guy is TALL. UH , if they shoot well, rebound and run, as well as pressure the other BWC teams, like other teams did to UH last year, I believe UH will be alright. BWC, totally open for all 9 teams to win. Parity in NCAA MB as well as all sports, so many good athletes all around!

Come to think of it, Caleb did mention that he had previous stress fractures in lower back from HS days, maybe that explains back problems. Feel bad for Caleb, however, his attitude is great, what can he do? So , take care of the back now, and move on! Good , the surgery and medical treatmant , rehab all taken cared of by UH!

Yes, take care Caleb, hope surgery goes well and you have speedy recovery. Don’t forget , now, you can concentrate on rehab and school work. Keep the academics in order, which you do. As K-Bay stated, you are one of my favorite BBIQ bigs that Gib has recruited so far. Maybe you don’t have the vertical jump, or quicks, however, you use BB smarts to get shot off , and get to the rim. Good rebounder and body to battle Bigs! Look forward to your return!

CALEB,
Our Prayers and Best Wishes to you for a Fully Successful Surgery, Healing, Health and Re-Hab, removing the nagging/excruciating pains and even stress fractures and that you resume an even more mature and focused Rise, Elevating Quickly Up the Depth Chart and BW Coaches/League/Fans Perceptions… i see really good basketball smarts/IQ and skills including good hands and shooting out to three, in Caleb and to have averaged 14 rebounds per game (in just about Any League) speaks to a good motor and focus… Keep Up the Hard Work and Great Attitude — it always pays off… Mahalo, Aloha Ke Akua, Caleb!
