IMO Sanchez could have a solid impact on team, ALA Justin Brownlee.


have you seen him play live?

As I wrote in here after the 2 times I saw him in person this year, I truly believe that Orlando Sanchez will be a pro.  Also heard he won't have much problem gaining eligibility.  REALLY hoping we get him.

It's not even close.  Orlando has much better hands, a pretty consistent midrange jumpshot, probably 2 inches bigger, runs the floor better and is an extremely impressive passer.

Orlando takes ridiculously long strides when he runs.  Can use some work on some of the finite footwork but I really believe the kid is an NBA player.

Same here.. I never comment on a kid until I see him.. I also like seeing someone more than once... I was really impressed by Sanchez today.  Kid did a little of everything very well.  Crossing my fingers as well :)

Yes but I've heard all will likely be good

Remember when Dwight Buycks was the focus of the offense and outscoring Dwight Hardy at Indian Hills? How did that translate into Big East. Juco ball is funny.

Buck's stats were nearly identical to Hardy's at Indian Hill's.  High school and juco can be funny like that, though, I agree.  Harkless was out scored regularly by Ledo and Moe is a legit first rounder while Ledo will never see a minute in the league.  Some guy's just have a game built for success the further they go..me thinks Sanchez is that kind of player.

Did I miss something ? Are we out with Obekpa ? Or does the loss of Moe allow us to get both. We still need a drop dead shooter. Don't think Morris fits that bill. Any possibilities ?

As noted in Rumble in Garden article today, should not expect Marco/Sanchez commitments until season completed.

I saw some brownlee in his game today. I really liked what I saw. Perfect fit for our system.

Do you know when that would be? When do the Juco playoffs end?
