    Yeah, it's easy to confuse all the schools down here. I continue to do it and I've been here 10 years.

      Here's a link to some clips from video I took at the Klein Forest / Spring game. Not professional in any way, shape or form.

          Tx and I went to the game last night. First off, his name is pronounced 2-Ray, in case anyone wants to know. KF beat Spring in a very close game 74-71, Spring had a chance for a desparation 3 at the end to tie but it clanked off the rim. Toure scored 16 in the first half on a combination of 3's and drives, including several nice behind the back moves and spin moves to the rim. He was pretty quiet in the 2nd half and only made 4 free throws to finish with 20. He actually missed 3 3-pointers in a row toward the end of the game. His teammate, Chris Hines, was pretty much a ball hog the 2nd half and tried to be a one-man show most of the time. He's the primary point guard and is definitely a shoot or drive first, pass 2nd type player (at least last night). Toure is much more unselfish, sometimes maybe too unslefish as he passed up several open shots to pass to a teammate for a better shot - even though he is probably the best shooter on the team. The kid has very good leaping ability as well, and I don't think it's been mentioned - no comparison to Ogirri, TM is much more athletic. TX and I were also talking about how quietly he accumulates points because it doesn't take a lot of attempts for him to reach 12-16 points - I think he only missed 2 baskets the first half, unlike Hines, who shoots a bunch to get his points. Unless something drastically changes with our current roster, Murry will start from day 1 at the 2 guard, I predict.
          Sounds like he's a great offensive player, but how is his defense?

            The block looked good.

            The behind the back dribble was sick, just wish he would have knocked down the three.

            He would get plenty of minutes if he were here now.

                I thought he held his own on defense. In the clips, at the :31 mark, he knocks the ball out for a steal that starts a fast break. There were a couple of times where he used his long arms to make the shooter change his shot. I think there's also a part in the clip where the deflects a pass out of bounds.

                If you didn't notice this: On offense, at the :35 mark, the pass he makes is a nice little behind the back pass.

                    Oh man! Thanks. Help is on the way.

                    I agree with another poster. The behind the back dribble, instant jumper
                    was impressive.

                    Help is on the way.

                          Not sure if he's thicker, but he's not Arbry Butler thin. Not even Sean Ogirri thin.

                              He moves his body like Cooz does, but he has a smoother shot and release.
                              I like the fact he made all the FT's.

                              Do you think most new recruits will be here by July? I hate the off-season.
