Think OSU has this 7'5" center on their radar?

The video is funny because all they do is pass it to him in the post and he scores...... but guys as tall as this kid are not supposed to run this well. For being so tall, he runs very strong and has a good stride...... He is from CA I believe.... WOW!!!!

Not much in regards to Hops but I guess when you are as tall as he is you don't need much.

Exactly BJMULLENS. Sully is about as unathletic of a big man I can tolerate for college basketball. I believe big men should be able to run, as well as board and score. Guys like this remind me of Z from the Cavs and just piss me off to no end. No speed, no athleticism. With the depth OSU has right now, that kind of big man just doesn't fit their style.

Don't give up... Don't ever give up.

They were horrible at defending him, he brought it down to his waist (head height) every time he got the ball.  They have to go for the strip there, otherwise it is just dunk after dunk.  That was hilarious though.  He'll probably end up at UNC-Wilmington or whatever the western equivalent is (Long Beach State is pretty good this year).

He will go to a major school just because of his height. 7'5 guys dont come around often. With the right coaching he could be dominate.

SPRESTON, agreed. This is highschool. Not eveeryone has the lebron james abaility and has the fundamentals so down pat as to make the transition to NBA. I say a major school will pick him up, easily. If everyone passed on a kid because he did not have the 'all the fundamentals' down and did not want to coach someone up, then basketball would be so bare and not be what it is today. Does it seem like this kid may be a challenge to work with, yes, but you don't become a big time coach unless you enjoy challenges.... That is why I think he will go to a big school

I was shocked at the athleticism this kid had.  Yes it didn't appear to be much, but at that height I figured he would be a total stick and he wasn't.  I'm not saying he looked great or flashy by any means, but he at least looked like he could move.  That was a major surprise.
