Looking through history at big men that dominated the college game. Tim Duncan (Wake Forrest), Shaquille O'Neal (LSU), and David Robinson (Navy) just to say a few. The thing that all of these big men have in common is that they were able to take their success to the next level. I don't see that in the cards for Jared Sullinger that's if he goes in the NBA after this season.
Jared Sullinger, is extremely efficient averaging 17 points, 10 rebounds and shooting around 54% from the field. As good as that sounds for some reason when you watch him play the game he just doesn't seem that dominate. He only shoots 70% from the free throw and has major flaws in his post game and outside shot. With Sullinger only standing at 6'9" he needs to be able to work around opponents for rebounds and points.
