Hmm. I don’t watch college at all so maybe it’s different but in the pros it’s been more about athleticism than ever. It’s definitely not about size anymore, not the way it used to be, and I could totally see that meaning that the top teams no longer have some 7 footer whose only job it is to make penetrators’ jobs miserable and so therefore a motivated smaller college team could completely upset someone. But, like, I think the whole point of why you no longer see those guys in the NBA any longer is precisely because athleticism is so much more important. Everyone has to shoot now (which I guess isn’t exactly athleticism but it’s close) and pretty much everyone has to be able to dribble or play classic outside defense and usually both.
Again, I’m completely ignorant about college until those guys go pro so I’ll freely admit my potential wrongness here.
