[Cactus Jack]

He is more advanced at this point than anyone could have realistically expected, especially for the system that he walked into.

He's also the first legacy that I can distinctly recall, and it's nostalgic to remember being a kid and watching his father play on those great teams.

Barring injury, his floor is a role player that you can count on for solid minutes over four seasons.

Know that Cal has a tendency to recruit over anyone and wonder what that looks like going forward. The class of 2024 isn't very strong or deep and he probably keeps or increases his role in the rotation next season, but he also isn't the type of player that Cal has ever gone out of his way to build a team around.


I do wonder if a divide over his and Wagner or Dillingham's playing time eventually gets a little ugly within the fan base, especially as the bigs are phased in and we hit rough stretches.
