"Tomislav Buljan was very productive in his freshman season at New Mexico."

His size is a bit off in the chart you show. He's actually 250 lbs, not 230. At that weight and being 6'9, I wanted Cronin to go after him at NM. From what I've read, he was never on UCLA's "go after list". He's a very good player and one who would have helped UCLA a lot in the paint and on the boards, IMO. From what I've seen in the several NM games I've seen, he will fit into the Big 10 well with his physicality.
