If he commits I suspect he will be a good shot blocker. Might get in foul trouble at times since he is not always in position and still goes for the block but that can be learned. I wonder how consistent his shot is? The fact that he is taking them at that height is encouraging that it might be a solid percentage. The coaches and himself would probably prefer to go inside if the J is sub par.

It would be a nice feeling to have the class finalized and to know we got several names on our list. Should be interchangeable with Robinson and work nicely with McKenzie and Latham.

I suspect he will be a good shot blocker even if he doesn't commit.

he pulled the trigger today.....way to go
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Time will tell. But, this looks like we got a real steal. Rivals lists his rebounding as Outstanding, Espn says he has a mid-range jumper, and the you tube shows him finishing ally ops. Even Gary might see the potential for another great X power forward.

It is great to have the class wrapped up. Seems to be the best class yet, at least based on rankings.

I'm guessing he plays center at X but probably forward in the NBA should he get the opportunity. A final 4 within the next few years is seeming very likely.

remember when the class of whatever year usually was filled at the last moment?
Jalen, Darwin, Dezmine, and Travis, Chris you did a great job. Seems like the last two classes have done nothing but improve the outlook for the Muskies.

Now Chris and the guys can focus on 2012. I like the 6'11" guy from Carmel
