"The camp develops centers and forwards from high school, college and the pros."
"This week's roster has a dozen college players, most notably Gonzaga's Matt Goode, Jordan Henriquez of Kansas State and Marquette's Chris Otule."
Looks like it's out at Chaminade. Not bad that Otule gets to make that trip 2 years in a row :) It helps that Merv was the coach of the Chaminade team that up-ended #1 Virginia in the 80s, putting the Maui tournament on the map.
Does Otule have to pay his own way for this?

I'm not exactly sure how it works, but here's the info sheet (it's a pdf, so beware): http://www.petenewellbigmancamp.net/images/_11_C-I_Info.PDF
It looks like the camp costs $1,600 per individual, but unlike the camp Jamail Jones is attending in Europe there is no mention of fundraising. The rules around raising money for stuff like this are a mystery to me.
Prince is a nice hotel..Glad to see they get decent digs not some of the package boxes
Good to hear this news, keep Otule refining his craft around the hoop/touch.
He should also be doing explosion lifts/squats/jump roping daily to build up some fast twitch muscle fibers to help his jumping and explosion.

How are his legs doing after those injuries?
His feet broke a couple times causing him to lose time. It's been a couple years since he was last injured, knock on Mbakwe's skull.

This was from last year, when he set a program record for the clean. I'm sure he's still been at it.

I know it's been mentioned elsewhere, but Chris told me this past weekend that he was really working on improving his left hand. From watching him in the MPA, it shows.
