Pics coming out, reveal much more muscular team than we have seen in the past.
Muscles are nice. Look nice. I want players that can hit wide open shots and free throws. I donβt care if theyβre poster boys for bean poles, or Hefty paper towels.
We definitely need shooters but weβve been way undersized in the brawn department for the better part of a decade. Happy to see some guys that can bang with the best of em.
I thought we had decent size last year. Give me a skinny guy with a stroke and weβll be better
Threadgill says ALMOST!!!
Anybody remember Robert Earl Blue?
Yep. Basically a bean pole!
A point scoring bean pole !
I almost mentioned Robert Earl instead of using the bean pole reference, but thought 99% here wouldnβt know who I was talking about. 
And you might be right!
First kid I ever saw using a 'shooting glove".
Did a search on Robert Earl Blue and reminded that he scored 37 in his varsity debut for the Niners.
Press photo of Blue (#44) vs Valpo (1-27-1972) at the original Charlotte Coliseum. 
Bean pole indeed!
All basketball players were less muscular during that era. Off topic, I certainly hope Blue is alive and well.
