not a shooter from outside, but geez that rebounding looks sexy...
and 3.4 blocks/steals per game not bad...
maybe a bit stiff in terms of guarding the outside, but wouldn't it be nice to have an above average rebounding big?

Points 17.3
Rebounds 15.3
Blocks 1.5
Steals 1.9

Really like him as a prospect, but I'd think he'd be off the board by the time we pick. Should be named SEC POTY.

Edit: looks like SEC coaches gave him the nod. Sporting News made him their National POTY. He's skilled enough to be a lottery pick.

oh damn...

he's listed at 46 on tankathon's big board... maybe i need a better predraft site lol.

i mean pulling down 20 boards against Duke in game 1 this season is damn impressive. He looks like one of those guys that just finds the ball somehow. no less than 7 boards in a game this season and 25 double doubles. five 20 rebound games including 28! in a game.

He's bigger than Liddell but EJ is a much better shooter. Oscar may be elite in rebounding though...

hope we get someone along the likes of this who we can develop as our main big
