Don't Care If He's Good Or Not, Florida Needs To Play World-Record Holder, 7'9" Freshman Olivier Rioux, Simply For Our Entertainment

I know Florida is a big time program. I know they are now a basketball school because Billy Napier is still coaching there. So I'm fully aware they will only make 'smart' decisions, especially having a coach in Todd Golden who uses analytics and outsmarts guys. But that needs to be thrown out. We, the college basketball fans of the world, need to start getting riled up and demanding they put 7'9" (not a joke or hyperbole) Olivier Rioux on the floor as much as possible. 

Why? Because, he GREW recently and might not be done

You're telling me they can steal a giant human away from Purdue just to sit on the end of the bench? Not on our watch. We need to see this guy play Division I talent. I need people arguing whether he's good or tall. It's one of my favorite arguments because of how dumb it truly is. We're talking about a guy who is a world-record holder for being tall. You can't leave that on the bench when we're trying to grow the game! 

I simply can't understand being this tall. Not even just the fact everyone is going to stare at you and talk about how tall you are. But, how do you survive normal day stuff? Everything has to be custom fitted, trying to walk into normal doors is a disaster waiting to happen. But now we need to see him on the floor. He can move alright for his size, showcase him now, Florida!
