Stats:

http://www.njcaa.org/sports/mbkb/2015-16/div1/players/usmanharunak66f

Averages a double double decent ft percentage for his size. This is exactly what I was referencing in terms of using one of these schollies on an immediately eligible  interior guy with experience, this would help a lot in the next two years.

It's probably not hugely significant but it doesn't hurt we just grabbed another international JUCO player in terms of making this kid feel comfortable. That and guaranteed PT.

Could you guys imagine a frontline of him playing center, Robinson PF, and the Hungarian kid playing the wing with his skill set? Would be the biggest lineup I can ever remember.

Re: 7 foot Juco

I would love J Rob and this guy to split time at the 5. Then if we get Washington, him and Marco at the 4.  Sounds good to me

Re: 7 foot Juco

Yeah Im going going to get to high on this guy because theres still a reason he is playing JUCO...but if he is a upgrade from D and we can get him....we are looking very good for the future and I may even buy season tickets next year instead of sneaking in with my expired Duq ID.

Wow, he is miles ahead of D Lew in terms of athleticism. A lot of that has to do with the fact that Lewis was huge and had to work hard on his body since high school. This kid is naturally bouncy and athletic, he can really run the floor.

Idk if you can say his shot is all that great. You could cut up a tape of D Lews career here that would make him look like an excellent post player offensively, and we all know what kind of finisher he was. This guy looks a little rushed and wreckless on some of his moves to the hoop. He's from Africa so he probably started playing the game late, which means he can definitely be coached up on fundamental aspects of the game.

Either way he looks like he could be one of the most important members of this class if we can get him. With interest from USF and VCU, this should give us a good idea of how Dambrot can compete with higher profile programs in terms of getting recruits.

Re: 7 foot Juco

I want him to go to here.  Old 30 Rock reference, sort of.  Me like!

Sure, the level of his opponents isnt what he would see every night in the A10, but he appears to have the skills to play at the next level.  And 7ft....and you cant teach that!!!
