Offers from WSU, Oregon, Texas A&M, Utah, Wake Forest and Houston. Still deciding whether to come overseas to play college ball or accept an offer from FC Barcelona (the basketball club).

That video was pretty underwhelming considering the offer list and pro offer.

yep

I don't know when this video was taken. Heaven forbid that this is true but maybe we are not good talent evaluators on Shockernet. Just sayin.

That list of universities and possible European Pro connections tell me that is a possibility.

I doubt that video impressed any of them, either

I actually like what I watched. He has a quick and compact release similar to Doug Mcbuckets.

You would need a lot more information to make any conclusions, but everything looked positive to me.

I liked his floating jump shot, you can tell he has some finesse in his game.

yep

Double yep. Not the inside, shot blocking, rebounding, 60% shooting, presence I'm hoping for.

Will visit this week

[proshox]

Exciting. I think he is a player.
