darius would be a good get hes a combo guard so he can play the one.  hes pretty electric and is great playing with uptempo players.

Can he play in the big east? Who would you compare his game to? Can he shoot the rock? Thanks in advance as your usually real good with your assessments.

hes a little bit like jason terry IMO and hes developing a shot (comparably, terry is a better shooter of course).  same kid of build and quickness.  i think that he is a big east player.  im not sure of gabriels age but he must be 19 or 20 by now.

Thanks ... sounds like he'd be a nice pick up for us this late in the game after striking out on all other recruits for 08.

kob, the truth is, you know better than any of us if he's a fit. Certainly, if he can play the one we need him. If he can develop into a shooter, we need him.

I think the team has great kids,  and personally I'd be happy if my son played for Norm (lol my son is 13... but 6'2"). I'd like to think that it'd be a good place for any kid.

lol I'd love to see it, JJ...

and jumpin, he's playing the middle right now. When I suggest that he might want to work harder at his skills, he tell me he's gonna be 7'2" and his skills won't matter... :)

Can this kid pass?

Re: darius gabriel
« Reply #17 on: December 22, 2007, 04:40:16 PM »
He can pass, but his handle and his shot need a lot of work...

:) Great, great kid, though..
