Keep an eye on TAMU's front line

With Tyler Davis (6-10, 270) steamrolling the opposition on the inside, Texas A&M was going to be a problem inside for opponents to handle in any case. Then, when Robert Williams (6-9, 237) announced he was not going pro, they became perhaps the most physically imposing team around. Their roster for next season is not yet posted, but presumably Tonny Trocha-Morelos (6-10) and D. J. Hogg (6-9) will also be back, both of whom averaged over 26 minutes per game.

The thing that makes Davis and Williams such a load is not just their size - lots of teams have that - but their style of play. They are physical. Take no prisoners style. War zone basketball - the kind you don't see much any more (thanks to the 3-point shot). Williams had 77 blocks as a freshman, which was tied for 18th in the nation, and his upside potential is plumb scary.
