He is a quick jumper with great court awareness and a really good skill set for a big. Purdue getting a good one I think

Just from what I've seen of this class, without any doubt, I think Catchings, Harris and Jacobsen have an NBA future.
You can clearly see why Painter added him, even though another 5 was not a need. Lots of potential with this one.
has nice touch on his shots around the basket, doesn't throw line drives at the hoop. Also nice foot work, doesn't rely on just one move
I also was impressed with his step through finishing with his left. Lot to like
I can see Catchings and Jacobsen at this time in my ignorance of the NBA.
I would love for him to end up a better version of Haarms. Looks like he has a nice confident 3 pt stroke already and I really love his quick moves to shoot the ball around the rim. Saw a couple good blocks but hope he can continue to increase foot speed to help in switch situations on the pick and roll.
I am really excited for the 25-26 season with Loyer/Smith/TKR as seniors and the big 6 being sophomores or red shirt freshman.
A line up of Smith/Loyer/Catchings/TKR/Jacobson would be final 4 capable. And Harris or Colvin could have displaced Loyer by that time.

Haha no doubt. Wonder how long both will stay. I’ve been saying Catchings only for a year but I’m now more in agreement with others and think he stays at least two. Which would be great to have him paired with Myles for at least two years. I’d assume Jacobsen may RS next year, just to get up to speed to the game and put muscle on, but who knows. Would then assume he’d stay another 2-3 years after that depending on how he develops and progresses. I’m excited for Harris as well to help in the backcourt on offense, but especially defense. We need a kid who can lock down a guard and I think he’s got that mentality and the ability to be that guy (maybe not right away but eventually).I can see Catchings and Jacobsen at this time in my ignorance of the NBA.
Needs to work on his hair flop
even if he does , it will not beat the one Neb player's. I watched some of their beatdown by Creighton yesterday and it looked like their was a sagebrush stuck on the back of his head
