Thanks Mel. According to the Premium Content Forum he's quite the get.

The stats are not very impressive. What is the real story on this guy?

Looks like he was at Palm Beach State before Daytona State.

OK then, his stats were not very impressive as a freshmen. He looks like a project.

I am less than thrilled. Dan is supposed to be finding guys who can turn around the program, not continue the decline.... hes 6-9 and 100 of 150 shots were threes? And he made 24% of them??? Did anyone else even waste an offer on this guy?

 

[Baltimore Bird]

Jammin….I hate to say it, but I agree with you. I don't understand this one. Once again, I hope I am wrong.

Hopefully he plays tough defense.

Not sure what to make of him. He didn't start in the two games he was healthy. He needs to eat and spend some time in the weight room. Seems like another Abdou.

In other news I read where Alston Andrews coach said he will be 240 after a few months with ISU and the docs have him projected to be 6'11". He is a young 17.

Stretch 4, not a banger and not gonna be, not fast. His shot looks good form wise. From what little I've found, he seems a prototypical East European forward: tall, slender, likes to shoot from beyond the arc, can take it to the hoop, and can make some awkward looking shots . . . just not sure how well he does any of those. Incidentally, he played for Montverde Prep when they won the 2018 GEICO National Championship.

He'll definitely be our next Dirk Nowitsky :lol: .

Obviously, things change but at the end of February- he had his top 5 schools already set. But strangely including the language, "until further notice," which might suggest the kid is just looking for bigger offers.

Sign me up. I think we can be certain at this point that any combination of bruninga, chastain, and sissoko will not be back. Potentially Rey as well but I see that being much less likely. Love to see us after real bigs for once.

12 pts/game with a 71.4 FG%. Please and thank you.

Belcher is no longer following him. I’m wondering if we’re done recruiting for next season.

Peyton's brother, Preston has already been on campus and Holmes has ties to Rey as his former AAU/high school coach that he dunked on.

Peyton to Tulsa.

Out of curiosity Bird Friend, how can you tell who Belcher’s new follows are?

I’m still all in for adding a big, especially a low post, efficient scorer.
