Class of 2014 Goodluck okonoboh

[tee1222]

You should be able to purchase tickets at the door with no worries. I never had a problem doing so whenever I go to HS events.

Clearly, you're the man. Probably going to Roselle game tomorrow.

Cool, I'm sure you'll have a good time and somebody from the SU staff should be at the game. Keep an eye on Roberson's teammate, Malachi Richardson. He's a top 20 player in the 2015 class.

You staying to catch the Benedict's game or you're gone after watching RC?

Definitely watching for Malachi and I think they have a PG that we never offered, Hakim Saintil? Malachi is a 6'6 SG so he'll be easier to spot on the perimeter. I really hope that Roberson and Lawrence match up the whole game to see how both stack up against D1 top 50s (ie, each other, haha).

2 games after that is Karl Towns and Kentucky entourage. I like his game, got a little European perimeter play for a center from what I've seen, but still, it's Kentucky so I am hoping for fail with a side of fail

Then last is St. Benedict's against Goodluck. Crazy talent in this game, but you know, Sunday night and all; probably will cut out after Roselle. Maybe I'll ask Calipari to take notes and call me. Ha.

Thanks for the update. D'oh! Tyler might have a lot of rebounds this game though.

good enough for me. Thanks for remembering and coming through in the clutch. Reggie Milleresque.

No problem. Really wish we had a chance to catch a stream but oh well. Hopefully our guys kick a$$ today

Goodluck has really been tearing it up since he got out from Noel's shadow and is playing at center instead of forward. He is the leading high school shot blocker. Does SU still have interest in him for 2014? I know he liked SU a lot last year.

If Roberson could hit some FT's he'd be trouble.

Yes they do. Hopkins watched him last week.

It would be PHENOMENAL to have both an Okoboh and an Okinoboh on the team!

Matt Park wouldn't know what to do with himself saying both of those names constantly lol.

Time to get back to pushing hard for Goodluck with Dakari gone (and he was in 13 anyway). An extra year may make Goodluck a lot better prospect and theres not a lot more available in 14.

Seems he would fit in very well with what we have been doing with bigs lately now that he is 14. Whitehead, Mculough and Goodluck in 14. Bryant Brisco in 15.

Casting call for nicknames.. the Big O-1 and the Big O-2... and agreed francis poor matt park trying to get those one.. especially the pass from Okinoboh down to Okoboh for two.. its off the rim caromed by Okinoboh.. say that twenty times fast...

Uncommitted
Okonoboh reclassified at the beginning of the year. From a basketball standpoint, after watching him in November, he’s ready for college now. The kid is bouncy, tall, explodes into blocked shots and runs the floor for dunks. Defensively, no matter the class, he’s in the upper crust of his craft.

Hmmmmm. I wonder if the staff will try to get him into 2013 if somebody leaves after the season?

Sorry, I'm still mentally tired from the whole Safari for Dakari adventure...but I'm guessing you we're being sarcastic. Yes/no?

Nah no sarcasm my friend. Goodluck is a very bright kid, who only reclassified for basketball reasons. If the right situation occurs, then I think it's possible that he ends up back in 2013. Which is why I made the statement above.

Be a perfect replacement for Rak (defensively) ...just sayn. big game tonight, can't wait to hear how it goes

I'm just liking your last post, because you outdid yourself with the new avatar. Very nice!
