Talking about the same toughness. Remember Lee was in foul trouble before the ball tipped. He took nothing of nobody, just like at Henry Clay.Not if he’s not a dunker. James Lee damn near tore the rims off.
Mouhamed Dioubate commits to UK!
- Thread starter BlueBloodKyFan73
- Start date
I guess this is as good a place as any for me to make my first post in this thread to emphasize that Dioubate only got on the floor for 16 minutes per game at Alabama. He averaged 7.2 ppg and 5.9 rpg. Extrapolate that out to 24 minutes per game and you get 10.8 ppg and 8.85 rpg. Amari played 22.8 minutes per game for the 'Cats and averaged 10.9 ppg and 8.5 rpg. Dioubate gives the 'Cats essentially the same production as this past season's starting Center ! ! ! I say "boom" about that ! ! !
Way to go, Coach Pope !
All of Houston's bigs have 7'4 wing spans.
This right here is an amazing stat. The Dioubate commitment made my day, week, whatever. The guy is a total badass and the commentary I saw all season about our "soft" frontcourt is out the window.
I don’t disagree I’m just looking at the roster seems we have more role players from other teams to add to role players we already have.
Your gonna have that situation, if your goal is continuity. Hey we as fans wanted out of the one and done.
Yet again we see one and done type team flame out. When it mattered most. Experience
That would be great. Love to see it.

That is where rolling the dice on guys stats and what that means with more minutes. So if he plays 22 or so minutes, what does that look like, 10pts, 7 rebounds, 1.5 steals. If so that is solid numbers. If we get the other PF, Alvaro (SP) and 1 more pure scorer like Yates or Pierre we should be a top 10 team next year. A team with a shot to make the run. We just need someone in the locker room, on the sidelines with the right JuJu to keep the injuries away. I swear there is a UofL fan out there doing some voodoo witch doctor crap trying to cause our injury issues.
Yates sure has a lot of upside. Actually would love to get those three. I mean we have four more spots to fill and by the end of the year last year we barely had enough players to practice. In my opinion, I say fill it up with the very best you can get and compete for time. I love looking like a dang football team coming off that bus. Ha. Go Cats.
Amazing get. Wish he was on this years team...the defense and rebounding was dearly missed.
Toughness and rebounds. Doing the little things and playing hard defense. Love the pickup.
I’m willing to bet this Kentucky fan has seen Mo and the rest of Bama play live in person more than you, Alabama fan.
Without that though, Effective shooting percentage of 65% last year says otherwise.
Really impressed that we got Dioubate. Our team needed an upgrade in athleticism and Pope has done a great job finding the right players so far in the portal.
I don’t know about Yates his cousin just left the USC program I could see both going back to Washington. It’s pretty hard to pull kids from West cost. I would love to have Yates just a Freshman shot the ball FANTASTIC. pretty much close to same height 6’4 212 to Pierre 6’5 188
Tell you what. When you win a basketball championship we will start to care what you have to say.
Meanwhile, we won’t tell you about football. Sound fair?
So that means Dioubate has the highest returning BPM in college basketball for next season assuming Toppin and Boyles stay in the draft.
I like it. Big physical forward with tons of SEC experience. Excellent move.
Guys on X claiming he is getting paid 1.5 mil.
No other source I can see.

I was hoping to see Pope get involved with Dioubate!! Great to pick up an SEC transfer. Idk if it’s been posted but his per 30 stats are 13.5ppg/11rpg/1.7stls/1.3blks. He was one of those dudes on Alabama they’d extend a lead and sub in Dioubate and you’re just like **** these guys never let up!! He busted his *** for Alabama and really was one of the most efficient players in the country. He’s absolutely poised to breakout as a starter playing 25+ minutes.
This is a huge addition!!

Woot!!!
That dudes conversion percentages and per-40 rebounding numbers are unreal.

Dude....smile once in a while. Enjoy the win.
