cincycpaw will become famous soon enough
Can’t tell much from short clips...but I did enjoy watching him attack the rim. We had a 6’11” center that might be leaving that barely did that.

Per source "2019 G/F Marcus Domask (6-6) of Waupun Wisconsin has narrowed his list down to five schools -- Cincinnati, Loyola, NKU, Southern Illinois and Wright State. He visited Wright State last weekend and will visit Southern Illinois and Cincinnati this weekend. "

This kid was a previous NKU commit under JB and then re opened his recruitment when JB took the UC job. So I understand why JB would reach out to him but for the love of god if we can't win a kid over from these other 4 schools. He averaged 26.8 ppg, 10.1 rpg, 5.8 apg while shooting 62% fg, 80% ft, and 48% 3pt. He was also 2nd team all state in Wisconsin two years in a row.

I don't understand how we are competing with the horizon league for recruits. It has nothing to do with this kid, its in general over what I have seen in the last few weeks of players we have visiting. They all have offers from mid-low majors.... and UC. Cameron Justice chose Western Kentucky over UC. I am not busting JB's balls over this because he had a late start on recruiting so I am optometric about the future but I hope this will not be a trend moving forward.

Seems to run and jump like a deer and from what it sounds like can at least hit a 3. Length for blocks looks real good. Looks like he might be able to dribble a little too. Doesn't look like he has a polished inside game but he can run the court extremely well.

From the videos out there he seems to check off a lot of boxes. Needs weight training but so does Diara. Seems like a very excitable guy! If Brooks should decide to go I would have no problem putting him on the squad right now.

I'm actually impressed
Hasn’t Diarra now had 2 years of training at UC? I look at the progress & change in body composition of a lot of our players after like 6 months & it’s noticeable - what is taking so long? He should know the game & be a beast by now

Yah. I think this guy would not be great. He can shoot but looks slow and looks like he has bad handles. I’ll pass on him. Can stand and shoot but probably a liability on D

Yah... I think it’s just putting on weight for him. He’s the one who needs the chicken nuggets

41.7% around the rim. that's unbelievably bad.

I'm sorry. This is one of the most depressing pieces of recruiting news I have ever read.
