Title: You think Wojo is interested?

The story has a video embedded.  He looks like his father, and can hit threes!

Manute Bol's son, Bol Bol, is dominating JV hoops in Kansas

Manute Bol had five children. One, Bol Bol, is now in high school in Kansas. He's proving the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

The video you see above, from MaxPreps, shows Bol Bol dominating Bishop Miege's first junior varsity game of the year. He may be a freshman in the classroom, but on the court, he's a power player.

Bol Bol already stands 6-foot-10 and is surprisingly comfortable with his own size and dimensions, particularly for a 14-year-old.

The next obvious question is: What is Bol Bol doing playing junior varsity basketball? The answer has everything to do with eligibility. The freshman transferred into Bishop Miege from Blue Valley Northwest early in the school year, but he had already technically started at Blue Valley. That created some gray area about when he should be eligible to begin competition.

Until those deliberations are completed, Bol Bol will have to bide his time with the junior varsity. That's clearly not fair, for him or his foes.

Until he kills a lion I'm not interested.

Will Gates JR. is transferring from Furman. Let's get him.

Does Niv have any kids yet?  Does our Gabe Levin situation muddy those waters?

Does Arthur Agee have kids and do they play hoops?

Agee turned out to be a better baller than Gates, so maybe the same would be true of their kin.

We need another game so we can start bitching about the rotation minutes, because this thread is really lame.

we need to get down to just 5 players on the roster so no one can gripe about the rotation

I don't remember ever being so anxious for a game to get started.   
This has been a long ten days, and this thread is the cherry on top.
