Yancy Gates, Cincinnati, forward – The 6-foot-9, 265-pound Gates was the leader in points (11.9), rebounds (6.9) and blocks (1.3) for one of Big East’s more pleasant surprises last season. Gates scored in double figures in the Bearcats’ final nine games and should do even better in 2011-12, when he’ll be one of the Big East’s top post players

If he builds off what he did at the end of last season, he will be one of the best players in the country.

You literally took the words from my mouth. I think he will be one of the best in the country.

If Yancy begins imposing his will in the post he definitely has a Zach Randolph type ceiling. He does that and UC is a top 20 team.

If he plays like he did last year UC is a top-20 team... IMO if Yancy continues to progress UC can be a top 10 team... but I'm always the optimist.

I'm really interested to see how he does in the World University Games tryouts (and hopefully the games in China as well).

i really hope that Gates continues to progress in his maturation and development...if he can play to his potential, he can realistically distinguish himself as a lottery pick in the next NBA draft...i am very anxious/excited for the season to begin...

Go Bearcats!
