Henry Uwadiae '14 c 6-11

[SHOXAAC]

Reggie was not a fail. When we signed him we were in major rebuilding mode and he was considered a good recruit. As things picked up, his prospects for major PT diminished. He is at UMKC now, where he is doing extremely well and has been a major contributor. Granted UMKC is "not at this level". But he was not a FAIL. We simply found some more athletic players.

For the record Reggie is UMKC's leading scorer at 17.2 ppg, and is shooting 42.5% from 3pt range this year.

Yea, let's compare our program to UMKC. Reggie was recruited to play basketball at WSU. Reggie's talent for the standard at WSU was a fail. I'm glad Reggie is having success playing in front of the 'roos fan base. GO 'ROOS!

I don't know that Reggie was a fail. From what I remember, he was the best available when we had someone transfer out.

Kenny Manigault on the other hand... go look up his stats and consider he's playing against DivII competition.

Is he still playing somewhere? I know he got suspended last year for grades at USC Aiken.

Sorry for the off topic question.

My mistake, the awful stats I looked at were from last year, not this year. Kenny is not on this years roster at USC-Aiken.

We need a picture of Henry with Muggsy asap. Trop get on that. You will have a lifetime title as The Shocker Recruit Guru if you do. Maybe even a tropical shirt with black and yellow flowers with "Shocker Recruiting Guru" stitched over the breast pocket.

I haven't worked on the pic with Muggsy Bogues. I'm sure he's no longer coaching Henry. I believe his coach is now Tyson Waterman, Gregg Marshall's former pg at Winthrop. A few weeks ago Henry was in the box score for Evelyn Mack Academy after a Shockwaves' article said he transferred there. However, recruitdirt.com has a recent article saying Henry just played in a game for Believe Prep, coached by Waterman against Hargrave, the 2nd ranked prep school in the nation. I can't find any other info on Believe Prep. I believe Henry and Waterman might of jumped ship to Believe Prep at the semester break.

To further complicate matters, in the thread on Troidell Carter, Waterman was Carter's coach at True Academy, which is now called something else, something like Action Academy. Good luck to all on trying to get info.

I hope these are legitimate prep schools and we don't end up with the mess KU had with all their partial qualifiers due to their prep school credentials not bweing recognized by the NCAA.

This is a legitimate concern and one I was blissfully unaware of until your post. Thanks.

[pinstripers]

I'm not worried.

[vtshocker]

Im more worried about if he will stay at WSU or transfer. He seems to hop around from one school to another

Looks like "Henry the 8th" is now listed as a seven footer... Interesting.

This guy certainly is a mystery man. Is anybody hearing anything about him?
