Cheikna Dembele

[CycloneErik]

I do assume he'll be in Chicago for a few days.....

Doesn't count. Send the man to Jamaica.

Update on CD, staff has told him he's a priority. sync's up with Prohm mentioning adding a post this year.

Love reading the HS coach saying that he "likes being around" CSP.

His coach liking Prohm and saying how much it meant for ISU to visit while they were in the sweet 16 sounds really good. Showing with action rather then just talk

Sorry if this has already been posted. I am middle aged and tired, and do not feel like searching through the whole thread to see if the video was posted. I do remember a screen shot several pages back joking about the shooting silhouettes. Here is a seven minute video of their practice a little over a month ago. Appears very tall and seems to move very well. He has a few dunks and appears to have a decent shot.

When was the last time we had a starting post over 6' 9"? Vanderbeeken (sp)? Does Jamie even count as a post, before that Brackins?

Id be happy with 6 9 and can catch the ball, dribble a couple times consecutively, and make an 8' jumper. Instead of alley oop everything otherwise he'll struggle to catch it.

No on both.

Would say Hamilton before he left.

Can't really tell much from a practice video, but he does move well for a 6'11" guy.

 

[rholtgraves]

Sounds like ISU is putting itself in good position with this kid

The Greek.

 

[NetflixAndClone]

I really hope we get this guy. Moves well and shoots well.

I do too. You have a lot to work with if a guy is almost 7' AND athletic.

Syracuse has already publicly announced 3 transfers so they know what their needs are, we might still be figuring that out.

Welp, that's that. I expect a commitment announcement to Syracuse next week, followed by an investigation-marred Syracuse experience that kids just don't seem to give two ***** about.
