If Dixon can step in and produce as even a sixth man, I still see that as a plus for Pitt because it will at least give them some additional, and much-needed depth. I honestly don't know what to expect from this kid, but hopefully the other (Jamie) Dixon & Co will be able to mold him into a viable player--maybe even a starter.
As far as Biggs-McGhee, I really like McGhee's potential. I see him as an Aaron Gray type, who will ride the pines and not play much his first two years, then really blossom into a force in the middle his junior and senior years. The talent, size, and coaching staff is there, all that remains to be seen is if McGheeh has the heart, desire, and work ethic to get to where he could be. But thats two years away. Next year, Biggs absolutely must step up and play, well Big. (Four years and I'm still not sick of that pun!) Point being, we've all seen the dramatic finality of senior year inspire players who were mediocre at best throughout their college careers to play the best basketball of their lives, and its time for Biggs to do the same. If he can do that, then I think Pitt's frontcourt will be among the top 10 in the nation next year.
