Do we have another ?Swat? on our team?

[Howboutdemdogs]

According to ESPN, after the 3 block shots from Ado last night, he ties Vanardo with 67 block shots as a MSU freshman. Will he be able to overtake the record with career block shots by the time he graduates?

[AlmostPositive]

We can only hope so....

[smootness]

Will he be able to overtake the record with career block shots by the time he graduates?

Almost certainly not

[confucius say]

No. But that?s okay. Like I said in January, He still will be an all sec guy by Time he leaves

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

I highly doubt he catches jarvis. Jarvis had the perfect body for it, and he hung around the rim more than Ado does. Howland sends his big guys above the key more than Stans did (if I'm remembering right), and that mean Ado will be around less plays at the rim.

But we don't need another Swat, we just need a good all round post player. Which we all agree he's turning into. Hopefully the JuCo and Holman can join Ado to become a "swat by committee" so to speak

[Liverpooldawg]

I hope NOT. He is WAY better than Jarvis was at this point in his career.

No. He won't even get close in my opinion. Varnado averaged a block about every 6 minutes of playing time over his career. Ado is currently at one block every 12 minutes of playing time. He got his 67 blocks playing twice as many minutes as Varnado did during their respective freshmen seasons.

Ado is the better all around player, but he won't even sniff Varnado's block record.

[Intramural All-American]

We played a ton of zone when Varnado was here, so he stayed under the basket. We play strictly man with Howland, so Ado is not under the basket as much. He will get blocks for sure, but he doesn't have as many opportunities.

I agree with this. He gonna go NBA for a while if he keeps working at it.

[ZedFedder]

I want to see where Ado progresses. Jarvis was really good by the time he was done here.

Vanardo didnt start his freshman year- so no, I dont think Ado can match his pace.

[whosyourdawgy]

Ado is already in the record books at MSU for the most times falling down during a season. I want to start a game called Timber to count the times he and Teaira fall to the court during games and yell TIMBER as they fall

[fishwater99]

Ado is way better that SWAT on offense... Different player..

[Bully13]

where's SWAT these days? playing in Europe or somewhere?

[Coach34]

Ado is in his 2nd year of college- Vanardo didnt get a RS year

[RougeDawg]

Hopefully someone shows Ado and the remainder of our team where the weight room is, after the season. Holy shit we look and play weak.

[Liverpooldawg]

Ado is only in his 5th year of even playing basketball. His upside is tremendous.

[Coach34]

I like Ado- he is going to be a good player eventually

yep. I think he will make it to the NBA before it's all said and done.

[Liverpooldawg]

He probabaly has the second best shot of anyone on the team. I think we have 2, with maybe one more if he gets his head on straight. There are two more that are longshots.

[parabrave]

If he can get some muscle and learn how to be a Hate to say it but ala Cousins he will be a monster. And learn not to bring the ball to his knees everytime he has possession.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Ado needs to learn how to use different shot types around the basket. Roberts and Mario Austin we're awesome at finding a way to get a simple shot off when they were under the basket and draw fouls.

[IMissJack]

Someone tell Mike Slive so he can be there when Ado breaks V's record.***

From What little he played, I think Feazell has some upside. He plays with energy and plays long.
