Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1389351, member: 569"] I may not be able to convince you otherwise but I encourage you to check Diange out. Lots of highlights and stats. He's done very well in general against higher rated taller bigs that he has competed against. He's still going to be a freshman and you simply cannot argue that his is a little undersized height wise for a center but no more so than Obokoh and Diange has tree trunks for legs and will not be moved off his spot. I'm not saying he will come in and be a scoring option but his offensive base is good enough that at some point in his college career I expect him to be exactly that. Again if you picture freshman Rick Jackson who played a little 4 but mostly backed up Arinze at the 5 I think that's a good low threshold for Diange as a freshman. Jackson struggled at times and got JB all agitated with his defense but he mixed it up inside, blocked some shots, competed on the boards and was a capable garbage man around the rim. [/QUOTE]
