Nice polite young man. Got to chat with him briefly before the game.
I had heard varying reviews but he is not a difference maker at this point. He had a half a foot at least on MRA's team. His only effectiveness was due to size difference not better skill. He loses the height advantage in college.
After seeing Devanta Pollard (Kemper) LeBryan Nash (Dallas Carter) Rodney Hood (Meridian) and Johnny O'Bryant (Cleveland) to a lesser degree, he isn't there yet. Those guys were hands down the best player on the court. Coleby is the tallest player on the court.
All that being said, I'd take him in Starkville. You can't teach height and we've certainly signed much worse.
And for a fashion report, "Big White Pimp" Andy Kennedy was there sporting a jammin' grey workout suit, red kicks and white t-shirt.
