Bubu had no chance of stopping SDW. He has great handles, gets to the rim at will and was hitting everything. Stepbacks, threes, you name.it. Picked Bubu's pocket a couple times and went in for a huge dunk on one of them. Yes it's the CCL but you can tell when someone has talent. He's going to be a good one.
He also had a pretty sweet alley-oop that I wasn't expecting

How'd Edozie look?


He needs some work but he did some good things. He works his tail off. Needs some work on foot work and when to go for the block and when to stay down. Strong rebounder, solid form on his shots.

Gibson was disappointing, he basically just shot threes the whole time.

Hopefully Doc S can really make an impact on Edozie given his effort.

As for Gibson, from what I've heard, the coaches are running out of patience with his effort and nonchalant attitude. He's a transfer candidate if he doesn't make the leap this year, IMO.

We will sign a juco big for 2014 imho. Who's going to play down there with Georges? Percy and Edozie?

Totally agree with this. They could be pretty small this year and next if he does though.

I know it was just one game but.... :eek:
He is a huge guy and rebounded pretty well. The negative is that he looks really awkward. Kinda like that big kid in school who never really learned how to move his body fluidly. I really dont know if that is something that you can fix. Hopefully Fred and co. and help him out!

Michigan offered SDW to play PG. That just tells you how good of handles he has. Kid is going to be special.

Best news of the night? SDW is up to 200 lbs! Much of the talk last year was that the talent was there but that he would get pushed around in the Big 12. Well, an extra 25 lbs will certainly help with that, and just the fact that he is capable of putting on weight is a very good sign. Some skinny kids just can't put on the weight no matter what they do. If he keeps bulking up buy keeps the smooth shot he could be a very good one.
