He's basically a 7 foot 1 Kevin Durant. This is scary...

Sean Miller is all over this kid already. Why in the HELL wouldn't he come to sunny Tucson?

I wonder if he's a legit 7' 1" or a "high school" 7' 1"? But if he's 15-16, he has some more growing to do. A consensus #1 pick already?

 

[Runeman]

We WANT THAT KID

 

[Runeman]

Chances are in two years, he goes to the NBA

Arizona would be fun as hell but if I could play college basketball anywhere, it'd be UCLA with no close second.

How long will his knees hold up?

no offense because i don't know you personally, but that would mean you are somebody that doesn't care about winning basketball games

 

[dcZONAfan]

We are getting #1 in the 2015 class, might as well follow in IRabb's footsteps since that dude is a definite one and doner

Arizona has won more?

 

[Shanemansj13]

C'mon Matta, go after this beast

 

[BritishDolfan]

How long will his knees hold up?

That has to be the question with a guy like this.

cmon you know I'm talking about current programs. Sean Miller or Steve Alford...HMMMMM

i guess I am getting ahead of myself, there is a great chance alford will have been fired by 2016

\Don't know about Alford, but quite certain Miller will be around for a long time. I think Miller is already a great coach and also believe Alford could become a great coach.

This kid has SU Zone written all over him.

Anyone check his birth certificate? I'm not trying to be a smart ass, I'm just curious what his backstory is. I wouldn't be all that surprised to see he's actually 3 years older than what they say he is given how unreliable African nations are in record keeping.

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

I tend to agree with Rune. With a new Commish, there's a pretty good shot he goes straight to the NBA.

If he's wanting to go to college, and win, and do the whole BMOC hot coed thing...

UCLA
Zona
Kentucky
Florida

In no particular order. All good basketball programs, all are overrun with hot willing coeds.

Incidentally I heard a story about a recruit's mom going into a Rite Aid and proudly proclaiming she needed the biggest box of condoms they had 'cause her boy wanna get get no girl pregnant. Which is horrifying and quite reasonable all at the same time.

Yeah... them and California.
