Pros:
He's not a guard.
He has actual basketball skills for a big man - 50% FT shooters can be demoralizing.
Experience/strength.
Cons:
He couldn't get minutes at Fordham (admittedly, as a freshman).
Every team needs that scrappy big guy, diving after loose balls, hitting the occasional THREE to pump up the crowd. The guy who doesn't fill the stat sheet, but whose value is much bigger than that - ESPECIALLY on such a guard/perimeter oriented team like Creighton. Let's hope Manny fills that role. Welcome!!
