I don't see anything about us recruiting him but was looking thru top JUCO rebounders and came across his name.  (By the way you'd be shocked to see how many top JUCO rebounders are guards).  Anyway looks like this kid was going to USC to play Volleyball.  And actually saw his name on Team USA volleyball site.

6'9.  Went to Rancho Bernardo HS.  Averaging 11 ppg and 11 rpg in JUCO.  81% from FT line.  6 of 12 from 3. 

Just throwing it out there.

Excuse my ignorance, Moose.  Does SJU have a Volleyball team?

No

Don't know if they're interested, but looking at where he's playing JC,  Arizona used Volleyball as a lure for several prospects - Chase Budinger the most recent.   Under Lute Olson, they were, known to get around hoops scholarship limitations by hiding a two-sport guy on a volleyball ride.

There are a bunch of mini clips of him on YouTube.  Too short to tell much.

We have Gift coming back, he knows the system and I doubt there is a juco big out there who would be a significant upgrade.  I think we should just save the ship rather than get another body.

Thanks for taking the time to research this.  Much more enjoyable reading than:  1) Speculation as to when Orlando Sanchez will be eligible.  2)  Who the next coach will be.  3) How much money did it take to get Jermaine L. to commit to Cincy.

Agree!
1.  No stj for orlandito
2.  We should all be very appreciative to have Lavin as our coach
3.  JL is one recruit, we will get over it.
4.  Rip cap.

I wouldnt have redshirted Gift, he would have helped us this year and could have been replaced w someone like Clayton.
