Montana is scouring the market to fill the position – but not necessarily the void – left by Martin Breunig, who graduated as a unanimous two-time first-team All-Big Sky selection and the school's 17th leading scorer. Despite the accolades, the Griz are not looking for a Breunig clone.

I'd call it "a void." Seems like an odd remark.

It means they aren't going to be able to find a player of Breunig's caliber.

Sounds like what a "void" is.

Sounds to me like they've identified the player they want. Just a question of whether they get him.

Sounds to me too like they're in no hurry for a player next year. I believe they're looking two and three years out.

That's a very odd and trivial criticism. Either "a" or "the" seem to work

Yes, if you elevate the observation that it seemed "odd,' to IT IS THE MOST BIZARRE COMMENT I HAVE EVER READ!

It wasn't.

It was merely, given Martin Breunig's extraordinary contributions, the observation that the Griz are not looking for anyone like Martin Breunig and that seemed "odd" because ordinarily, you look for really good players with lots of flexibility and good shooting who can play center as well as other positions and score the most points on the team.

You know, "just because."
