I can’t use the words that describe Jonas Aidoo and how weak he is. A junior getting benched two tournament games in a row for a freshman that rarely plays is as pathetic as it gets. Goes out with 0 points and 2 rebounds in a game where he had to show up. He was weak and visibly scared. A complete embarrassment.
Let him go chase some NIL money somewhere and bring in a big that wants to fight and not hide. Awaka, Estrella, and another strong guy should be a decent post group.

He STILL flips the ball toward the rim too often without even trying to really shoot it. And it looks to me like he short-arms a lot of shots when he's intimidated by a big guy. But those two games to end his season were just sad. |

Most of the Vol losses were to teams that had a physical post. The last 2 games were not a new revelation. |

Would like to think he was sick cause he played sick. Plays well against average Bigs
Santi being sick didnt help but thats not our problem. Lot's of weaknesses across the board

Interesting illness. Seemed to play that way all year against physical post players. |

He was so timid and hesitant. In addition, I would like to find the guy who covers his hands in butter before the games. |

Awaka was going to struggle against Edey of course, but he got in there and battled. Jonas... well, he didn't battle. |

And he's a lot better than he used to be, but physicality/size are a real struggle for him, which is a shame because you're going to face some big, physical centers from time to time. |

Ehhh give me Aidoo. How many portal bigs are actually good? I'd have to see who's in the portal first I guess. Dickinson did pretty well at KU. And I'll definitely concede that he's an exception. I'm not wanting to push Aidoo out the door necessarily, but I don't think it's that hard to envision some better big men in the portal. Whether or not we could land one of them is a different story. |

If Aidoo's tournament wasn't impacted by illness/injury, IDK how he would even come back from it. Absolutely shocking. Yeah, he struggles against physical posts, but those were his two worst games by a factor of 10. Literally unplayable.

You play Estrella all year 20 to 25 minutes a game and you might still be playing You bring Uros back and you still might be playing. We got NOTHING from Aidoo |
