Koloko has a lot of potential

I think he should be a huge priority for the staff.

He has a TON of length & is aggressive on defense.  We haven't had a solid shot-blocker in the post for a LONG time.

Koloko has old-school interior moves.  Arizona hasn't had a big-man that backs down defenders in a while.  His shot is a bit "flat" (similar to Ayton), but I don't think he'd take a lot of jumpers at the D-1 level.

As a prospective 4-year player, I really hope he commits & provides a future for our frontcourt.

I like the things thought of picking him up soonervrather than later.

As a member that I respect on this site, I respect and value your opinion, so I ask you..
Where/how would you rank the following in terms of what you believe/want us to bring in, assuming we could/would only take one, maybe two:

C - Kai Jones (FL)
C - Christian Koloko (CA)
W - Jaden McDaniels (WA)
F - Edward Turner

I don't follow recruiting as closely as I once did, but I think Koloko should be the #1 priority.

Landing a guy like McDaniels will prove to the rest of college basketball that Arizona is still a player in recruiting Top-10 kids...however guys like Kai Jones and Edward Turner will allow Arizona to "build" chemistry in the frontcourt.

Kai Jones would be an amazing addition because he's ready to contribute immediately.  He wouldn't be a starter, however he could provide depth to Jeter and Lee.

Edward Turner is raw...yet he is a gifted shot-blocker that can guard multiple positions.  I'd love for him to commit with Koloko or Jones...however I'd be happy if any two players listed above ended up in Tucson.
