agreed - forum originally started with the "trends" of how size is becoming more important. I would bet my bottom dollar that the team that wins the National Championship next year will have their top 10 scorers averaging 6 foot in height and around 190 in weight. I'm not saying that there arent exceptions to the rule and there are definately kids that have more heart than others. What I'm saying is that If I was a Division 1 College coach I would definately be giving serious thought to what potential a kid has due to genetics. Also, if anyone had the time to go back over the last 40+ years and go over all the Championship teams, there were plenty that had "big" kids playing. I know that back in late 80's when Syracuse was dominating they had 2 big middies with the last name of Gait, they were both around 6'2" and weighed over 200 lbs. Maybe they were the trend setters.
