"Mbao picked Marshall over the University of Texas."

What?  Really?

Well, good for him.  I hope everything works out well.

I think its funny that the title of the post is "MU gets 7 foot 2 transfer."  Kind of ironic, made me think we were getting him to transfer back here!

Just like DJ Newbill picked MU over West Virginia.

red shirt year will be good for yous i think he is a redshirt year away from being acontributor.  25 lbs of muscle and he will be a good c-usa player.  appears buzz felt the same way but was unhappy with his work ethic and commitment

you've got to think the success of Hassan Whiteside has something to do with the choice.  given the physical similarities of the two, seems like it could be an apt comparison.  best of luck to him in what seems like a well thought out destination.

He already experienced bench-sitting at a Big Conference school.  Good move, and I hope for his sake that we all grow to rue the day when all 7'2'' of him walked away.

Agreed.  He is a fine young man.  Hopefully, he can use that redshir year to build his body and to learn how to play basketball.  Best of wishes for Yous.

Thought with 25 lbs of muscle, he would be a good BE player Mr. Hayward?   ;)

Wait, 25lbs of muscle was going to make him All Big East you said.  Now, 25lbs of muscle won't make him all CUSA?  Damn

Good luck to him.
