  • This kid is RAW. Despite that he seems to have pretty good court vision / awareness. He looks extremely strong for a freshmen, pretty
    athletic, and must be a pretty fast learner which he will have to be to fit into our offense. Fantastic potential and surely able to play 4/5.
    Would like to know if he can play with his back to the basket on offense and guard a stretch four on D.

          Agreed on both counts, Dan -- the Allen situation made me a fan of whoever is playing is WVU (unless it's the Chickenhawks, in which case I'm all 'Eers).

      • Boozzzzaaa!!!! Holy GREAT GET!!! Dude looks like a legit 5-Star that usually goes to Duke or Kentucky. Congratulations Josaphat of becoming a Shocker!!! And BIG-TIME props to the best coach in the universe Gregg Marshall (and staff)!!!!! So excited to see this young man learn and grow into what he can become!!!!

        GO SHOCKS!!!!!

                Maybe they got his height backwards and he's actually 10'6!!

                    • Another awesome sign. Considering how late we got on the new JB, this is incredible. Coach Marshall and his Staff will not get outworked or out-shaved. In due time, JB's game in the AAC will be finer than a frog-hair and That is what we like to see!!!
                      Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

                          • I couldn’t be more excited about this recruiting class! A skilled PG with leadership qualities, Two body ready combo guards that can do it all...one that’s a scorer and the other an athlete. A 6-7 transfer that plays like Ramon Clemente, a bouncy 6-8 PF with handles, and a 6-10 rim protecting stretch four that can drive and dish.

                            This is goes well with our two returning wing guards, point forward, and stable of centers.

                            If we can shoot, we have the ponies.
