It's one game, and he played great. It is so nice to have big men that can police the paint.
This Iowa St team is not last year's ISU. Last nights ISU was undersized and reminded me of a mid-major regarding their front court. These are the types of games that big men feast on.
I would suggest the kansas bigs were a fairer matchup for him, and he held his own. But those are the games he will get into foul trouble, when we need him the most.
I'm not trying to be a wet blanket; I'm as excited to have Tillman as I am MPJ at this point. In the past, we get our hopes up about a player and he doesn't perform. But he appears to be an upside surprise, something Missouri fans haven't had in a while. He is the kind of player that can become a crowd favorite.
But let's slow down the talk of him going pro next year after one game.
