Conner Frankamp is a Shocker

[shoxlax]

Did anyone notice his demeanor was like on the bench? I wanted to make it a point to look over and see how he reacted to big plays and made baskets. Never did remember to do so. Hopefully someone else did.

Seemed stoked and happy when good things happened, but nothing real celebratory as he is not a big wear his emotions on his sleeve kid anyway.

Glad to hear it! I was concerned we wouldn't have anyone to throw it down against the Redbirds next year.

He has to have a vertical that is in the 33-35+" range. He's not the strongest jumper...so don't look for him to try to dunk over/through people but man, he can get off of the floor with the best of them.

KU always warms up with a mini-dunk contest between people with about 70 minutes till tip-off and he was impressive to say the least.

Yeah, I figured this would be the case; based on the reason you stated.

Thanks for the report!

I am not. The dude has serious ups. Hopefully those ups can translate into lateral speed and defense.

He speaks the truth...I've seen Conner dunk from a standing start like it wasn't much of nothing.

Forgive me if this has been posted somewhere, but a really good look into his work ethic albeit from a Beaker perspective:

Note CF's reaction to TC's throw-down... Evan liked it also. :)

Rosenboom is probably licking his chops at what he can do with Conner in a couple years. It'd be interesting to see Frankamp's measurables on day 1 at WSU, to when he graduates.

First time seeing that article. Yeah, this could work!

Several times yesterday the announcers talked about our teams BBIQ and that EU's coach
said it was off the charts.........and it IS SO important. Having watched CF play that is
one of the things that stood out about him to me - I think HE also has a very high BBIQ
to go along with his talent, so in that regard, he think he is a good fit into our program
and GM's type of player.

I heard he has been working out with Danny Ainge...
