EO can definitly keep up racing up and down the court and is a skywalker. Anytime you can get the oooohs and ahhs of a big crowd, you are on to something positive. EO get's those 'crowd pleasing responses' on his ability to block and swat shots. My main thing is I want him to block shots in a way that we can end up with the ball because he can slap the rock silly on his blocks.
Here is how EO can help us offensively. I doubt he has that many games he scores in the teens at the D-1 level early on, although I hope he does. It has been well chronicled how EO blocks and alters shots on defense. However, even if he is not scoring oodles of points, he could become a Monster Rebounder in time. Rebounds=Shocker possessions=offense? Can u dig that? We will have our fair share of scorers in our arsenal.
Let's get back to offense with EO. He can dunk with ease if he dosen't try to tear down the hoop down. His shot from 10' on in is really not bad. He also made some nice outlet passes to teammates for easy lay-ups the game I attended. EO has decent foot work but has not mastered how to get open in key spots to receive the ball. These are areas that our Coaching Staff can assist him to develop. This to me is the paramount question. Just how hard is EO willing to work? Kerry can teach him how to bulk up. Our Coaching Staff can teach him the game and the moves. From there, it is up to EO as to just how good he wants to be. He oozes with talent and potential which is obviously why Coach Marshall did triple-duty getting him signed.
It did my soul fine to see Mr. Stutz and Mr. Hamilton there that day to offer their support. This summer, I hope they realize just how much they could all help each other get really better. It's all good. Groovy!!!!!!!
