Good size, good hops, and looks comfortable with the ball in his hand.

His Highlight tape looks legit...

Looks like we beat out Oklahoma, Tulane, and Tennessee for him. He is a late bloomer and can shoot the 3 ball as well as throw down a dunk. He should fit right in with our team. Let's hope he grows another 2 inches this year too.

<span class="storybody">"<span style="font-weight: bold;">And other things that really sold him was the
academic center and the new practice facility. </span>And also just the feel he
got from being around Coach Stansbury. I felt the same. It just felt
genuine."</span>

Take that Ben Hansbrough.......

He looks legit, and sounds legit per the scout article. That article basically says he is a guard who had a gigantic growth spurt his junior year (6'10 now). So he apparently is a great inside/outside threat. I'm curious why he hasn't been snagged up by someone already.

To be Negative Nancy, his jump shot looks like mine....in that, he gets about an inch of elevation.

I mean it looks like every school in Louisiana recruited him but LSU...wonder why they didnt want him..

The fab 5 part II is complete!!!! we are on our way......eh

 

[Hanmudog]

I do not see how a kid that size with some of those skills got overlooked. Are grades an issue?

That video didnt show me anything. All it showed was that when he is wide open under the basket he can dunk it. It also looked like the tallest player he was playing against in that video was 6'2". We will see. </p>

He looks just as versatile as Renardo he just doesn't have all the hype and hes not a fatass.

I searched and could not find his statistics from this year. The only one's listed so far are from his Junior year( 21.4 points, 15 rebounds and 6 blocked shots per game in his junior season).. Either he is under the radar or just played against some very weak competition.

Link - look at the biography section

Wish there were more clips of him playing defense....But hey, a 6'10 (not a bean pole) that can move and jump. I'll take it! Glad Rick signed him.

he was all state at a 3A school and we didn't exactly "steal" him from any of our peers.
