Jermaine Lawrence is the same way. He is 6'9 but is a face up not a back to the basket player who is at the 4. There are usually only a handul of guys each year who come in and can play back to the basketball at the center spot and the UNC's, UK's, Duke's of the world usually scoop all of them up
Good post

"He has offers from Memphis, B.C. and Washington," said Coach Wootten. "They call the most. Maryland interest, Cincinnati, and Xavier."

Played very well at the The Under Armour Grind Session. Says UC is among those recently recruiting him the hardest.

How easy would it be to negatively recruit against Xavier right now. Mack is on the hotseat. A recruit typically has to like the head coach to even give a school a chance. Questioning whether that coach will even be there has to play into it.

Just a question. Do we take Etou and Perry? Or do we prefer one over the other? Is it worth spending both schollies on big men with Titus and Ganes/Cheikh/Nyarsuk in fold.

Has recently said UC is his favorite right now. With him signing late I'm not sure how much that means.

He has offers from Kansas, Kansas State, Maryland, Miami (FL), West Virginia, and Memphis. Interest has been shown by Arizona, Xavier, and Florida, as well as Cincinnati. Is there a reason we haven't offered him yet?

Holding out for Lawrence, Woodson, or Henry maybe?

In terms of the BIG EAST, Etou noted “I would like to play for the BIG EAST”, though his primary focus is to choose s a school “a great school where I can go in and play.” He is aware of, and likes the BIG EAST’s style of play.


I would think we would be high on the list if he would like to play for the Big East
