Big Man On Campus Targets

He played center for Portugal national teams and looked really good. He struggled sharing the space with Zuby, which tells me he’s used to being the 5.

I love Prey's skills but i have trouble seeing him as a formidable 5 against talented bigs. Vince, though less skilled, in a short stretch could do all the things you exoect of a 5 - ptotect the rim, clean up around the basket for throw downs, and rebound. Imguessing Rick would really like a legit backup center, hopefully with upside development.

On cue, Maher’s “Nike” this week. 👀 Have not seen any verification of Niko formally de-committing, but ton of smoke on this. He’ll have his suitors if he does.

It's funny how a short time ago, we would be salivating over this kind of kid and potential signing. Now, we are parsing thru what a "big" is and how we can land a true "big". Kid seems to be high ceiling talent, but not a banger kind of kid who would spell the 5 for any period.

A McD AA who is highly skilled and could contribute some in year one. No way you pass on him, a solid building block.

I heard that he may have been on campus this past weekend but maybe you or someone can confirm. This kid is a borderline 5 star prospect with an inside out game, sneaky high end athleticism, and wiry strong. Looks like he visited UNC, OSU, MSU, and UConn last fall. This would be some coup for CRP and staff.

Lock him up.

Taking a visit while still committed. The west is wild, but not that wild.

No clue on him being on campus and agree w your assessment.

Love to hear this. Could see this kid getting a few minutes of PT as a frosh and blossoming big time in year two.
 
Would be great to finally get another McDonald’s all American. Last one was Elijah Ingram. Even though it’s just a symbol, it does make a difference for players to see those caliber of guys come here.

Also think it makes us really deep, provides great insurance to Bryce, lineup flexibility, and, most importantly, potentially a massive part of the starting lineup the following year.

Hopefully it gets locked up quick.
