       If we  get this kid it would be earth shattering for our program
       .  Add into the mix with some of the freshmen we have coming in
       e could be on the map for the NCAA next spring .

       Latimer is already the best commitment in the AE. If Otchere
       becomes a seawolf, it's the best recruiting class in the
       conference by a nice margin.

       I just watched Otchere video. If Boals actually lands this stud
       he would probably go down as the best recruit the AE has ever
       seen..

       There aren't a lot of huge mid-majors on this list here, but
       overall quite a bit of competition.  I don't think our current
       year's record helps us in terms of landing him.  If we could
       somehow pull a rabbit out of the hat, and get to the AE
       Championship game, this might help.

       When you look a little deeper at the Stat breakdown the kid shot
       a lot better at the line during second semester of school than
       first semester. Over 10% better.  Points to in season
       improvement.
       Checked out block stats and he finished with the most total
       blocks nationally.
       Almost 4 blocks per game in 14.5 minutes per game. Coaches would
       kill for that kind of rim protection.
       Fouls seem to hinder him for right now!
       I think Boals and the staff are smart enough to know when they
       are gonna miss on a kid and pull back on recruiting them and
       wasting resources. Frankie Pollicelli is an example of that.
       If it's this late and SBU is flying all the way to Kansas for
       this kid then I'd think there is something there.
       When a kid has 20 plus offers he picks and chooses who he wants
       to have dialogue and engage with.
       Regardless of New Mexico State,Washington State,Utah
       State,Portland and schools like that being involved, SBU's staff
       visiting him this late is a really good sign.

       I think is Boals lands him that he'll have a chance to be AE's
       best shot blocker ever.

       Man.. All we can do is hope he decides to come to SB to further
       his education. Is there a deadline for his recruiting. How much
       time do we have to land him.
       Thanks for all your insights..

       I'm right with you.
       "As of now, Otchere hasn’t trimmed his list and is keeping his
       options open. In March, he’ll try and cut it down to five
       schools and is looking to make a decision in April or May.
       Otchere will have three years of eligibility left when he
       enrolls in a division one program in the fall."
       That was from that Zagsblog article posted in here not to long
       ago.

       This month would be great with a run at the AE title and SB
       being in Otchere's final 5
