He is 6'9 with a 7'4 wingspan, originally from Australia. He was the first recruit Coach Patrick got committed from Australia. Personally I believe getting a project player is never a bad thing, but if we had signed Malone and Deng Deng I would be concerned. Hope Deng Deng can make it in college basketbll do not know what the whole story is.

I honestly think that CJJ wanted him eligible for this past January to help make up for the hit we took when Calvin Godfrey failed to qualify. That way he would have been assured of having three years to play three while getting valuable experience on this year's squad. As of now, he may only receive two more years of eligibility and there won't be nearly as many minutes available next fall with Martin and Mickey coming in plus Coleman returning for his senior year. The fact that we added another center makes it seem as though the coaches are comfortable at power forward for next year.

Man that guy reminds me of Tyrus with that height, length, and athleticism. Not saying he is that good, just saying that is who he reminded me of.

I saw him play BRCC this year, you would think if he were sec talent he would dominate or a least be a major contributor. He was average looked to me (I know it was. Only one game) but seems to be more of a southern southeastern type player.
