JUCO F Dewayne Benjamin

[cloneraslin]

I know he was brought up in the big thread but I wanted to start his own thread. Did we ever find out any more info about him regarding his interest in ISU. On this JUCO rankings website they have him as the #6 best JUCO player this year.

Next Up Recruits » Top 50 Junior College Players for 2013-2014

He averaged 16 pts & 8 rebs last year in JC as a freshman. He looks to have the physical strength to play big mins next year. 6-7, 210 lbs put on another 10-15 lbs on him by next season and he could be a beast at the 3/4 spot.

Yeah, if Cunningham is a miss, I would love to have this guy. Or just take him over Cunningham. Win win imo

 

[CycloneErik]

I'm with State.

If Benjamin wants to be here, I'm in. He sounds excellent, and he fills a need pretty nicely.
I see everybody winning on that deal.

Originally committed to UTEP and Tim Floyd in high school prior to gong the JUCO route.

He looks pretty powerful around the rim. Block that!

A couple other guys in the top 50 list of note:
at Iowa Western is 6'-8" Tyrone Haughton
at Kirkwood is 6'-10" Henry Uwadlae

I have no idea if these are Fred's type of guys, or if we're in contact - but if we're looking for post help - these guys aren't too far away.

Note that Kenny Ejim is also at Kirkwood, if I remember correctly

that's correct - he'll be a frosh this fall. Good memory.

Want. That dunk in traffic at the 26-28 second mark was ridiculous, and he had some awesome put-back dunks.

I know it's one video but this guy looks like a freakish athlete and would fit in perfect with Fred's system. I want him....

I think we are in contact with Haughton.

Yup, I'd be pretty happy with a 2 year scholarship going to this guy. Shot looks better than I expected.

Also, this video is unwatchable. Every play doesn't need a slow motion replay.

Agreed. After watching his dunk tape yesterday, I kind of wondered if he was just a sick athlete but the kid also has some range and isn't the worst ball handler I've seen. He would make a great 3/4 in Fred's system.

Man that would have to get under the Hoks skin if we were to take a Juco player from the community college that is typically reserved for the kids that didn't get into Iowa. Especially with how much flak they give ISU for all the transfers.

Kirkwood's coach played at ISU. If he's worthy of a look from us Fred will be welcomed. The AD loves him some Freddy as well although he's a Hawk fan.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

This kid is a sick talent. Must be academic issues to have not not been offered highly out of HS?

 

[BallSoHard4Cy]

This guy looks like an athletic freak. Would fit right in here. Want.
