Wamukota also had interest from Texas Tech, Auburn, Colorado State, NAU and others before narrowing it down.

That's quite the late growth spurt. The Kilgore roster page lists him as 6'9.

He did have a game last February where he scored 20 and pulled down 15 boards.

http://www.dakstats.com/Websync/Page...=462&plr=97415 It looks like this kid started out at the NAIA level and this will be his first year at Kilgore. Kilgore has him listed at 6-9 but I have seen him listed at 6-11 and 7 ft. Does anyone know if this kid was placed at Wiley or Kilgore like we did with EO and then things fell through. With EO in mind is this kid a project that will most likely red shirt. Hard to find any information about him on the net as far as his background or how long he has even been playing basketball.

Here are his stats from last year, playing for NAIA Wiley (Tx). Looks like he started getting some production in the 2nd half of the season.

This answers my question from earlier today. A friend of mine said they saw coaches walking around with somebody HUGE. I said it was probably Chadrack or Kadeem and showed pictures, but she was like "no, definitely not either of those two, and he seemed probably bigger than 6'9"

There is definitely room in my heart for another 7' Nigerian.

Last time we had one, we went to a Final 4. Anyone remember that year? Good times. I wonder if the coaches mentioned that to our new friend

Tom?

Okay now what is your team name? :)

[The Cat]

I think he is from Kenya

Haha and its right there in bold for me too. Does that make me small minded for lumping that together?
