50% FT shooter. Cant expect much better than that from a big

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.

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

Sounds like if he doesnt get an offer from a high major and only
mid major offers, Otchere likes Fordham.. Or Wichita State..
Cant blame him one bit going out West!!

Zags Blog has a new york city focus and probably asked about
Fordham since it's in the Bronx. I think the big takeaway is
that he wants to make an impact and play right away, which we
can offer with the graduation of Petrus and Sturdivant leaving a
big void down low. Boals can also talk up his experience
coaching NBA players Evan Turner, D'angelo Russell, and Jared
Sullinger while at Ohio State. I'm not confident we can land
him, but it seems within reason.

A couple of points: 1st, I think you intended to cite
Otchere's interest in Washington State (not Wichita State).
2nd, and certainly far more interesting, is the apparent fact
that neither Fordham nor Washington State have any open
scholarship slots left for this coming season. So, in either
case, a current player would have to leave to create an opening.
Just for the record, although I certainly agree that Otchere
would be an excellent get, I could certainly live with
attracting either Carlos Dotson, Eli Abaev or Alanzo Frink.

The bit about immediate playing time has to be a huuuuuge
selling point. He could come in and almost be guaranteed 25-30
minutes a night for the next three years. I wonder why he
doesn’t see that kind of burn at GCCC.
Maybe foul trouble - eek. 11 minutes in each of the last two
games, 5 fouls and 4 fouls. Whatever. Take the good with the
bad.
Let’s get Jameel on the phone with him. Of the schools who are
after him, who has a more decorated big, a freakin USA
Basketball POY, like we do with Warney?

Speaking of Jameel, what is Mark Cuban’s problem? Jameel is
tearing it up in G and Mavs are going nowhere. Why isn’t he
playing in Dallas yet?

With these stories circulating about the bottom teams
purposefully losing this year, maybe that's exactly the
problem...Jameel is too good and might contribute to the Mavs
winning games! :) ???

Warney needs to get out of the Maverick affiliate, Texas Legends
and move someplace else. He is not under any contract with them
and is going nowhere fast.. Look at all the money he lost
hanging around the G league, hopping for an invite up.. He
should have just gone over to the Asian league, the highest
paying international BB league, and if you are really that good
the NBA will find you. Warney probably lost close to a Million
Dollars already hanging around with the G league, Legends..

Because Cuban is a POS, blood, money hungry lier. I really wish
he moves on from the G league and go over seas..

Hammertime, your whole statement is so spot on.
Warney has missed out on a BIG BAG chasing the NBA dream

Hammertime, you are spot on. Warney has missed out on a Big bag
of $$, chasing the NBA dream.
Warney's biggest drawback is that he isn't a Floor spacer nor is
he a dynamic pick and roll defender. To get that call up it's
not about IF YOU PRODUCE, more about HOW YOU PRODUCE.
Less productive guys are getting call ups but they fit the
current NBA game better. 7-10 years ago Warney would of been
called up by now
