per Hamilton:
23. Both Gach, Minnesota
On this roster alone, it’s tough to decide between the 6-6 Utah transfer or Liam Robbins, the 7-foot up-transfer from Drake who already received his waiver to play in 2020-21. Robbins definitely helps fill the size void left by Daniel Oturu, and he was a 20-and-10 guy on a per 40-minute basis as a sophomore, but expecting that sort of production to translate immediately to the Big Ten is a stretch. Gach hadn’t yet gotten the yay or nay on his waiver as of this writing, so that instantly makes his situation more intriguing. But he has played at the power-conference level. And while his sophomore numbers weren’t incredible (10.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists per game and an effective field goal percentage of just 45.5), they do have a glue-guy feel; the curiosity would be how much Gach’s athleticism adds to that to make him a sort of uber-glue guy, or better.
