Class of 2020 C/PF Fallou Diagne (AZ)

[Cusesky8214]

6'10 200lbs. Listed as a center but definitely more of a PF. Not much on him recently so I'm not sure if theres issues/redflags but kid looks very skilled offensively. Can shoot from permiter and handle the ball. Kinda slender for a Big man like we normally recruitd but much more skilled offensively. Reminds me of a much better offensive player then Keita. Side note: hes friends with Baye on IG.

Not much media stuff out there on him though.

good write up on him. Mentions having good potential for being a stretch 5 type player.

UNDECIDED
6'9" | 205 LBS | C | 2020
COMPASS PREP
CHANDLER, AZ

(I guess the call state and new Mexico offers could be new) maybe hes just not that good lol. Thought he looked decent on tape.
Recruitment: Offers from Cal State Fullerton and New Mexico.

Why his stock could rise: Arizona State, Mississippi and Texas Tech offered the slender big man with mobility and upside as a junior, but things have since quieted. This season, he'll play with a pretty loaded group at Compass Prep and given that there aren't many big men left, he'll get every chance to prove he's worth developing at a high major. Once he adds strength, he's got a high ceiling for improvement.

Actually he kinda reminds me of a Pascal Siakam. **NOT SAYING THATS HIS POTENTIAL** just how he plays and what hes able to do.

Think he has eligibility issues

Think he has eligibility issues

Kinda was thinking the same

 

[Cusesky8214]

Grades are dookie so not eligible.

Maybe this will help...

Maybe this will help...

Hmm...interesting

 

[All4SU]

Maybe this will help...

I’m guessing this is why that 7’0” kid from Syracuse/North Carolina suddenly blew up. They knew this was coming.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Maybe this will help...

His coach is looking into it for fallou...so who knows. If this kid becomes available I'd go all out! Hes good!

A non-qual gets a free college admissions pass.

But what happens if he can't maintain his GPA in college? You'll see a lot of kids being ruled ineligible in Jan 2022.

Don't touch kids that couldn't qualify. The bare minimum gets you an athletic scholarship for basketball and football at most institutions. If they're not cutting it in high school, less chance they do so in college where outside of the syllabus, no one is going to remind you of your assignments.
