Scouting Report from Coach Roger Harden:
On the hardwood: Landen is long. He's quick. He can pass. He's got a lot of the physical attributes that will allow him to be a very, very good basketball player. He started playing basketball a little late, but I don't think there is anyone in our program that has improved more than Landen has in the last two years. He has persevered and kept coming back and working hard. He is still ironing out his game and doing the things it takes to get better. He's become a very good shooter. He runs the floor very well. He is a tremendous rebounder for us. He is also one of our strongest players. He may not look like it, but his strength is camouflaged. In the weight room he has made good strides. He has become a very resilient basketball player. He always bounces back. What makes me excited about Landen is what he could become, and what he is becoming, as a basketball player. I expect nothing but great things from Landen as time goes on.
Off the hardwood: Landen is a great person. He's a very polite young man and he treats everyone with respect. He is never, ever in trouble. He works hard in the classroom and he listens. He has a good sense of humor and he is a joy to be around. He is a great teammate.
