Being a big in college may have changed a bit. That said, Danny Fortson put up 15 and 8 per game as an 18-year-old freshman. Maybe let's temper our comparisons a bit.

I'll dredge up a very old message board topic. Danny Fortson, despicable as he was as a Bearcat, added 10 wins to a Seattle supersonic team by adding sheer toughness.
Tyrique is that toughness.

The only real question is how many minutes can Tyrique play. Is his conditioning good enough to go 30 minutes a game?

The fact that it's been brought by coach more than once means that this is going to be a mixed bag issue for him. He's obviously working on it and will likely get stronger as the season continues. But the question will be does a run of several games in a row just wind him at the end of the season.
Personally, I like O'Mara in there for different reasons, so the platoon approach works well for this team. Jones certainly has looked strong so far and I hope he steps up to demand the ball more while he's on the court.
