kid just needed time. excellent skill set and good athlete.
No, he never would have been successful here. His total lack of aggression would have kept him on the bench behind Fab, Baye, Rak. Good for him succeeding at EMU, but it would not have happened at SU.
IDK We have had centers get less rebounds than dead guys and they were ok
Not sure about points, blocks, and boards, but I know for a fact he has averaged 3.7 Cat Rescues and 2.3 face to face Giraffe Feedings per week.
He was very civic minded. Took a job as a human hook and ladder fire truck. Saved the community a lot of money.
I agree with you. He had ability and was from all accounts a good kid and serious student who was a credit to the school. The problem he faced is that SU recruiting is at a level where someone like him wouldn't have gotten that many minutes. In a previous era, SU would have been able to give him more time to develop by letting him learn by playing.
No, Baye's 10 times the player Dash will ever be. Baye was going to redshirt freshman year and was such an improvement over Dash in practice that even if Dash didn't get hurt, Baye was going to take his minutes. They are night and day aggressively as well. You would never see Dash run the court and swat someone from behind like Baye does. Same with their tenacity on the boards. If Baye had healthy wrists the last two years he would have been a rebounding machine.
Have always liked Baye and like you said if not for the bum wrists...He's a chemistry guy who is a team player and gives you full out hustle when he's in there. The coaching staff loves him and I think he begot Obokoh who I think has many of the same character strengths and work ethic that Baye has.
