Christopher Obekpa - PF - Our Savior New American - Centereach, NY - ST. JOHN'S

I have to eat crow about giving people crap for reading the kids Twitter. Looks like twitter gate scared off teams

Saw on Twitter Cincy has landed a commitment from a JUCO PF. Not sure if this puts Obekpa back in play or not but its interesting.

I was one of the early twitter adopters and posters and got S for it from some on the board.  However, my other translating skills (lol) tell me that many tweets leave out letters or have typos from time to time.  I'd chime in with a possibility that Obekpa, outside of fooling around with his tweet, meant to type "they don't PLAY cbi (right)," not "pay cbi (right)."  So maybe style of play is not right for him.


It's entirely possible, but he deleted it just not to deal with explaining the typo.

Dam I love Obekpa game , love players who don't need the ball to affect a basketball game. I wish I would of took my butt to the BX to see Maco & Orlando once I found out they were on our radar.

Monroe plays tomorrow at 1pm and the game will be streamed on Monroe website.

Moose any idea how to find the game. I dont see it on their athletics page. Thanks

Just found it.
for those interested

Ship has sailed, bur piece on O makes sense in my biased opinion.

“@5starbasketball: ALERT: Noel, Shabazz, Bennett headline unsigned prospects http://t.co/rCJcP74r”

Either way, our staff seriously needs to land a big man to handle the middle next season.  Adding Sampson and the possibility of adding Sanchez will be huge for our low post scoring, but it will all be for nothing if St. John's does not have a legitimate center on the roster.  Whether it be Obekpa or Chandler, they need the size in the middle.

Dont count us out just yet....

Evan Daniels- Chris Obekpa will visit St. Johns this weekend, per his HS coach Eric Jaklitsch.

Hell Yeah! Obekpa would be a beast with this team.

Or he could be talking about turning down money elsewhere to come play for us 

I can be guilty of it too but I think we all read too much into these tweets. Who knows whats going or what he is talking about. Lets just see how this plays out

  Tweetgate continues!!!

Who knows what this kid wants , I no I sure don't but I do know a front court depth chart that included Sampson,obekpa, chandler, Sanchez would be legendary. And we have the ships to do it

Love that Lavin has some big options. Tends to give potential commits something to think about. Guy is an excellent recruiting strategist.
