Garrison Brooks

Would be great for Garza and give them not as much size and rebounding edge

They have a bunch of big guys. Luka will still get the challenge you want.

This is what people don't understand...Garza wants garrison Brooks to be fully healthy and ready to go. He ain't looking for excuses

You can have only so many biggies on the court at one time and Garza hasn't been hampered from scoring in over 1 and a half seasons no matter what or whom the opposition throws at him. He'll get his points and I expect Nunge will provide additional front line scoring that North Carolina will not expect. Double Garza and unleash Bohannan, Fredrick, Wieskamp, Nunge, and others....epic!

Fingers crossed that the above sentence doesn't end with 'epic fail'. There have been some mighty ugly 3 point shots put up so far...but the boys should be pumped up for this one.

UNC also has a 7fter...they can afford to foul with their depth at the bigs. Iowa going to need some 3pt shooting this game. IF GARZA continues his 72% shooting percentage, then he is officially unstoppable.

I also am little bit worried about Purdue with their freshman giant being a difficult matchup for Garza. Even if Garza has no problems with Purdue big man, Purdue has seemed to have Fran's
number recently.

I think Brooks usually guards opposing PFs as he is more mobile than Bacot

That PU freshman hasn't faced anyone close to Garza's skill level.

Why would that guy be a difficult match up? Just because he's tall?

Theres no way a freshman is stopping Luka Garza.

He might block a couple shots but he'll also get fouls and he's to slow to stay in front when Luka faces up.
