Somebody posted a family pic in this thread I think. His dad has to be 6'8 or 6'9. This kid is probably still growing. Maybe he's the unicorn DT we've been hoping for.

His dad was listed at 6'10 as a player for Niagara.

His dad played basketball at Niagara and averaged in double figures in scoring for 3 seasons. I think having a father who was a key player for a high level college program have given Jobity good insights into what is needed to play college sports.

I like taking players whose father or mother played college sports. It seems to me they tend to be more successful, all other things being equal.

His father also played BB professionally overseas.

This guy is the very definition of a sleeper. Will he stay asleep or will he be woke. If he comes here, it’s kind of exciting to see how it plays out.
Especially if thru superior coaching and proper dedication to S&C…you know the rest.

Reminds me a bit of Ryan Lacasse ....

Well, the basketball team is made up of students after all.

Just a fwiw Jobity is following our new WR coach Mike Johnson.

This strikes me as the profile pic/info of a kid about to sign with Syracuse.

Really hoping to see a commit from this dude today. I think he’s going to end up being a good find late in the process and love that he’s from WNY.

Or he just waits until Wednesday.

Or he just waits until Wednesday.

His school probably has a signing ceremony. I would not be surprised if his coach and others at the school are trying to have all the athletes who got scholarships to appear at that ceremony.

Having a little suspense for it might get more people to show, maybe some press, which everyone would benefit from.

 

[Orangezoo]

I wonder if he might still be growing.

Yeah- 6-6 285 in a year or two? Hell yes.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Or he just waits until Wednesday.

How many times in your life do you have a few hundred people eagerly anticipating what you're going to say? Hope he takes advantage of the opportunity!

 

[XC Cuse]

Or he just waits until Wednesday.

It's a big day for the kid. I would suspect he wants his day in the sun, not being a super highly recruited. Hopefully he is gonna commit to SU, but I would imagine that could be possibly why he hasn't committed yet, and wants Wednesday to be his day.

Has the size and is enthusiastic about potentially playing here. Give him a scholarship and hopefully he will remain loyal as time goes on. Invest in him now when most other FBS teams aren’t.

 

[Goin' Deep]

I heard from his cousin's barber that Kevin's asking for his high school number.
That's the only hold up...

 

[721Comstock]

Yeah- 6-6 285 in a year or two? Hell yes.

Jon Rothstein nods approvingly.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Yeah- 6-6 285 in a year or two? Hell yes.

Why stop there? Why note 7'0" 300? Teams can't throw over the middle because he puts his arms up.

Hey now let's not be greedy and save the surprise..
