    I honestly think this makes him a better pro prospect than Reynolds. I think Farr rebounds better, passes better (although not by much), and shoots from the outside better. I think Reynolds is a better college player, but I do think there's a slim chance of Farr getting a summer league contract and being able to show some skills that translate to the NBA.

    And with players in the past this might translate as: "I gotta get in the game, pad my stats, make the highlight reel / my name on sports center...get noticed."

    James realizes, perhaps, in the "All For One" spirit, the success of the team overall will benefit him personally/professionally) as well as his teammates, the program, the University maybe even the community at large (in the sense that it makes UC look bad by comparison).

    Just maybe.

    He can definitely hit the glass with NBA players imo. He seems to have a pretty good idea and instinct of how and where the balls gonna come off the rim. He's a big, strong, near 7ft tall, grown man that can carve out his space. If X needed one big defensive rebound to get to the Final 4, I can't think of any other big man in college ball I would rather go get it. James goes for 10pts 12reb n 1blk today.
