That is a good point. Seems like this guy has more range than burns as well.

Holy sheet - that puts things into perspective. The burns effect.

Everybody, including the most casual basketball fans are infatuated.

(to be fair, he's an amazing dude away from basketball, from what I've read & heard)

I saw a Twitter post of him taking pictures with the security staff in the tunnel after the game today. Definitely seems like a stand up type of guy who you would love to have in your program.

This guy is a unit. He looks like a linebacker. D2 but apparently MU has reached out.

He's highly skilled.  Can he guard anyone?

I don't know. Been trying to find more on him but there is not a lot of tape on D2 players. 45% from 3 and 91% from the foul line will please a ton of scoopers.

91% from the stripe??  And a 45% trifecta?? He also has nice handles.  Where did this dude come from?  Can he mix it up a bit as well??

[Lennys Tap]

Did great! Glad we're cool with a 16th place finish

Actually we finished anywhere you want to put us between 9th and 16th.

He's from Akron and played at the same high school LeBron James did (St Vincent St Mary's).

All I can find is a post game interview of him from college.

He also has 2 years of eligibility left.

Ty.  I'm no expert but he has excellent touch and range.  It's pretty rare you see a guy with thaf frame carve guys up with a step back triple.

He look incredible.... But can he do it against big East teams and guards etc,     Interesting player,....  We want bulk!!   He's got bulk!   Great shooter .    Wow

Interesting player. Think I'd need to watch some gameplay of him though to be sold. Would like to see him going to the rim and his activity on defense. Seems pretty slow and not athletic enough honestly.

We'd have to see more but I don't think he's slow.

Is a manatee slow?

He definitely looks very interesting. He also has been playing 36 min a night all season, so it appears his size isn't an issue. I wonder why he didn't get a D1 offer. I am 100% assuming it was because he wasn't in shape? I'm sure a summer with Todd would make him a beast. I know scoopers want their aircraft carrier or PG. But having a tank who is 6' 7" and can shoot like that and average nearly 8 boards a game would be a nice addition.

Completely serious.  When folks think athletic trainers will turn someone into a good BBall player, I shudder.

I am not talking about his ability to put the ball through the hoop, as it looks like he can do that just fine. When I say "a summer with Todd" I am referring to losing some weight and gaining some muscle.

Manatees are not slow.  For short distances they can swim 20 mph.

Completely agree.

OK.  I've looked at nothing.  And celebrating après day.

[MUbiz]

Haha all good. Here is a preview - he's 6 7 and maybe 250-260 lb. Massive tank who can shoot the ball from 3. Enjoy the video in the twitter link I sent when you have a chance to watch it. It's definitely interesting to say the least.

Thanks.  History suggests you're not a dummy.

Having UConn in the BE for the foreseeable future should help with the next TV contract. Very curious to see what happens going forward.

Thanks Rocky. Appreciate it!

91%...but I've been informed FT's irrelevant, hey

[wadesworld]

I think I'd be okay if Kobe Johnson wanted to come back to Milwaukee.
