    He will be a freshman at Uconn, and he is 16? :g: Wow. He kind of reminds me of Ralph Sampson by reading that report. It is rare to find a quick, strong, co-ordinated Center who can shoot, who is 7"3!!!I'm excited. I want to learn more about this kid.I dont know if I believe that he is only 16 though...

    He will be good, I know it. Look at all the talent Calhoun has recruited over the years: Ray Allen, Rip Hamilton, Donyell Marshall, Caron Butler, Emeka Okafor, Ben Gordon, Rudy Gay, Josh Boone, Hilton Armstrong, Marcus Williams, Jake Voskul, ahh crap I know I am forgeting someone, but oh well you get the point, this guy is most likely for real.

    Just because he went to a good program doesnt automatically mean he will be good. I agree, the kid seems to have lots of talent and upside from what I read from the report, but you cant just assume he will be good because he plays for UCONN...

I am saying Jim Calhoun, a hall of fame coach, is one of the best recruiters in the game. Like I said that other post, he recurited all of those good players and he is a good coach. Hilton Armstrong would not have been drafted if it weren't for Calhoun, Emeka's offensive game would be trash if it weren't for Calhoun, I can go on and on.

    No, it is the default age. I dont think his birthday showing up as 1/1 is a coincidence. Thats the default age. Im almost sure of it.
