Cool. Backbencher from Houston, but that was a great team to build experience at.

Some websites are saying he is 6'6". Some say 6'4". Either way, it appears that he is a tough banger. A national top 30 PF coming out of high school.

UH will be loaded at forward next year, with Sasser and Mack coming back, and a couple of top high schoolers coming on board. He wasn't going to get a lot of playing time. As someone said, he most certainly got some good coaching at UH.

One issue in my opinion that we had last season was the lack of a mid-range game. Especially with Ware out, we didn't have much dribble penetration or pull up jumpers.

I think the guards we have signed have addressed that.

Armbrester looks like a combination of DayDay and Kevon.

Really liking the way it's shaping up. Another rim protector would be nice

A bit more information about Robbie from Rivals Basketball Recruiting...

Out of high school, was rated the 121st player in America and 30th small forward. Recruited to UH by Kellen Sampson. "Tough and active, Armbrester is a willing defender that can guard multiple spots on the defensive end. Not a tremendously explosive athlete, the three-star relies more on his blue-collared approach and physicality to score around the basket. He is a tremendous glue-guy that can fill a bevy of roles on both sides of the floor."

I've never heard the term "glue-guy" before, but I like what it implies.

Cut Smith and Hyman and I think you're right.

Looks like 10 scholarships. Could use three more.

Think we're sitting 7 guards and 3 forwards.

That would leave one senior. They may use that spot for a recruit for 2023 if everyone stays. There is a kid they really want according to chatter

Still hoping that the SFA coaches with ties to Southern Miss can pull there big man that is in the portal. Tyler Stevenson would be a huge get for the Jacks.

What are his skills that would make him attractive to our coaches?

Tyler Stevenson is 6'8", 215 lbs. 14.5 ppg, 7.7 rpg. 49.2 fg%

We need a big man that can score and also have 2 coaches that were at Southern Miss. when he was there. Just figuring that since the coaches have ties to him that he is a possibility.

Makes sense. Great stats. Thanks, 89.

He has a nice mid range shot

Which of our coaches were there? With those stats there are sure to be lots of other schools coming after him. We'll just have to sit back and see if anything good happens or whether we're just spitting into the wind.

Dalonte Hill - Assistant Head Coach at SFA. He was an assistant coach at Southern Miss.

Austin Cox - Director of Basketball Operations at SFA. He was Chief of Staff at Southern Miss.

Best part of this is that they know whether or not Tyler is a fit for the Jacks. They know his work ethic, attitude, is he a team player and what kind of student he is.

I bet with all the holes LSU needs to fill on their roster, that they are on the trail for his services.

Didn't realize he was a former walk-on at Southern Miss.

He is super raw. Good defender but struggles to score. Watched him in practice at UH multiple times. Having said that, he is a kid that comes from being coached for a year by the best coach in the country

That Louisiana Lafeyette Center looks pretty decent but not sure if we have any connections to land him.

He really started to look promising for us down the stretch, but this one is an odd choice. He could be a potential starter here but I don't see anywhere better he will even see the court.
