Win over Furman could help SDSU with Power 5 suitors; Aztecs will look the part against No. 1 overall seed Alabama in the Sweet 16
Three thoughts on San Diego State beating Charleston and Furman in Orlando, Fla., to reach the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16 in the South Region:Advancing to the Sweet 16 has a direct monetary benefit to the Mountain West Conference and its membership from the increased tournament units over the next six years — or about $6 million total.
That pool of unselfish, supremely talented players is becoming increasingly shallow in the era of NIL, in the era of entitlement, in the era of me. Competition is fierce. Colorado State’s Niko Medved: “It’s a hard thing to sustain against a team like that, as athletic, as physical and really as deep as they are.”Utah State’s Ryan Odom: “They’re really physical … and they keep coming at you.”
“I felt like for us wanting to win on that level, we needed to look somewhat comparable,” Morris said. Now add 6-10, 230 Nathan Mensah, 6-6, 225 Aguek Arop and 6-3, 210 Adam Seiko returning for COVID seasons, and eight of 12 scholarship players are 6-6 or taller and nine tip the scales in the 200s.
