Final score: Hutchinson 84, Moberly 74. HCC, now 30-4, takes on Northwest Florida State at 6 p.m. Thursday in the NJCAA Quarterfinals

22/12 for Ahmed

Yet another full game available for fans to see the "invisible" Ahmed. Looked good. Next round will be tough.

I take it all back. Let's just call him "The Truth" from here on out.

Only fools deal in absolutes. Try keeping an open mind and being optimistic for once.

I think he is way to short too be a legit stretch four.

Listed at 6'7 215 and has been playing the four for them all season. He is best suited for the wing as a pro and high level college, but plenty of wings his size and smaller have killed it at the four in college.

He's 2-3 inches taller than Dom.  He's a better shooter with both hands and better rebounder actually.  Dom was a beast, and Ahmed a different player, but IMO will have similar impact if not more for us.

Dom was an elite rebounder when he was in position or wasn't and wanted to be. That was the part that made seeing him flat-footed 20-25 feet from the basket as a junior seizure-inducing. I've literally never seen a player more misused in my life.  If Ahmed is even half the rebounder Dom was as a senior, we'll be fortunate.  Offensively, Ahmed is clearly on another level with his skills.

Never thought it was accurate but Dom was listed at 195.

Info on his game today;

Dennis Rodman played at 6'7" 220 and led the NBA in rebounding seven years.  Ahmed's size isn't a problem.

In SJU terminology that's about 6'5" even though the 6'7 comes from his current roster.

Reality won't knock down Marillac's ego a peg. It's like throwing spitballs at a battleship.
