Yeah, if this guy is Kong II I'm all chips in.Skinny Kong.

Short of us making the tournament and Battle having a Mali-like performance, he's not going anywhereIf we somehow land a guy like this and get a commitment from Duarte along with the 2 guys we currently have I think we will have come out with a very nice recruiting class. Next year will be a little painful especially if Battle leaves with Lydon but we could pick up a 5th year guy to run the point for a year and then recruit a pg in 2018. I'm not getting my hopes up on Ayala reclassifying to 2017. This is the type of class we need to build up depth and hopefully attract a top pg to come in and run a deep talented team in 2018. Getting 5 star recruits is nice but watching them leave after 1 year sure is painful.
Well if he squeezes his butt cheeks hard enough he might get that extra inch:noidea:Box score link lists him at 6'8". Draft Express too.
It'd be nice but I'm not putting too much stock into it. He's listed as a 3/4 everywhere.
The Great Slavic Hope
That's actually very funny this is somebody who needs a little bit more ball to his frame but he's a cross between Eric D Mike Hopkins and Andy RautinsUK, Duke, Zona, and Kansas ...
Just kidding. Vandy, Florida, and Georgia Tech.
So, like all our white guys?That's actually very funny this is somebody who needs a little bit more ball to his frame but he's a cross between Eric D Mike Hopkins and Andy Rautins

With our luck, he goes to Gonzaga and becomes The Great Slavic Hippie.
According to Evan Daniels, SU is one of the schools showing interest in the Slovakian star who wants to play college ball in the states. He's 6'9 and says that schools are recruiting him to play SG and SF.
Nobody really knew about him until last week. So I think it's a situation similar to Yurtseven, where he'll most likely take a few visits in the spring and then decide after that. If SU gets a visit then then you know is about to get real.Is there any smoke here Francis? I like this kid, there is defiantly potential there and I think he would be a great addition to the class, just seems way to quiet
Agree. He is not a 2, not going to happen.It'd be nice but I'm not putting too much stock into it. He's listed as a 3/4 everywhere.
This is the kind of player I would expect Mike Hopkins to recruit. He is a bigger, more athletic version of himself.
Let's all be honest for a second. This is the type of kid that Pitino would take at Louisville and turn into a Syracuse killer. After watching him singlehandedly three Bomb us out of the building we'd all be saying "why can't we find players like this?!"
He sounds like a player. Has fundamentals, is not a head case, has height and shooting range. What's not to like? Sign him up! I never in a million years thought Mahmoud from Louisville would make our bigs look like fools, so I'm not counting any skinny foreign dudes out.
Yeah, a player like Kong is always a welcome addition.Interesting perspective. Hope he's a lot more athletic than Hop, who was a slightly more talented guard version of Waffles. I'd sign up for a more athletic Onganaet (sp?) in a flash, by the way.

He lists Syracuse as a possible destination.As in you expect him to come to SU or know something?
Or just as a possible option to pursue with Lydon gone?
