6' 11" center who, as a freshmen, played some minutes at WVU before being injured. Akron's board seems to think he will get a waiver to play immediately.

He was VERY average in high school and I expect that WVU figured out their mistake.  If he averages more then 8 pts a game ever, I would be surprised.

Doubt he gets the waiver.

Hmmmmm

An Active o zone with giant debit cards .......looks like fun....

Not sure what an impact he will be but having thta height across the front is never a bad thing in my boook.


never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game

This gives them some solid depth.  I think Kadeem is a better player.


I've seen crazier things happen.

From the 'kron thread - my notes in Green:

WVU roster profile describes him as:

• Has tremendous upside - 6'11" and looks like nuthin' but upside
• Runs the floor extremely well - Useful in a getaway
• Has outstanding lateral quickness - 'Kron is lateral from WVU?
• Has effective footwork in the post - Can't make a stop, take a charge, swisher not blocker, un-aggressive post up's and D collapses on him

That's pretty good! 

Got to admit, I was hoping there wouldn't be any 6-11 Zips once Zeke left. Guess I'll be waiting a few more years!

The video they had of him didn't impress me at all.  So, if he wants to hang around, okay.  I'm not worried about him after Zeke leaves.  I think Kadeem can take care of him easily.

Sounds like TOS breaking down Marin Bota and his "NBA skillz"
