Interesting what he had to say about "shoe teams."

Sounds like he might actually be a good fit here with those comments. Would be a great addition.
Posted from mobile device. Hopefully it's coherent.

He didnt mince words about his former AAU coach either. Surprising to hear someone be so frank.

The guy has a D1 body right now. Good job by the staff getting Ezikpe to come in for an official, only got one left go for the guy you want.
Some interesting stuff

What number visit are we?
Answered my own question. UNCG and Middle Tenn...We are his third.

I like this guy's attitude! Leave it to folks who follow HS basketball to comment on his fit for ODU. Would be nice to get someone that Mid Tenn wants though.

Thats a good sign. Time to roll out the big welcome. Just the type of player we need for that final piece. Man, that would be another nice recruiting class. Back to back.

What happened to all the JJ can't recruit comments? On paper it appears he and the staff are getting it done. Now let's hope that shows on the floor too.

It'll change to "recruiting is a crap shoot, no one knows if these guys will pan out."

I was one of those. Up until this freshman class, it was a legitimate criticism. Let's see what happens from here.

I said back when Hueitt and Godwin committed that 2017 class was a decent class. This class as of right now seems better. I hope this trend continues. I wish I could say the same about football. Been taking heat for 4 years about football and it is showing big time today.

Well, we complain when people make the generic "JJ doesn't recruit well" argument because it's been said 1000 times and we've beaten the horse bloody. We all know who is and who isn't satisfied with the recruiting at this point, no need to rehash it. Kind of glad the random comments stopped and we could focus on just talking about the kids, who they compare to, what their abilities are, etc.

The other side of that coin is that through the subpar recruiting years, several people on here acted as human shields to deflect any criticism of what was happening. Those comments too have been said 1000 times. I think that "at this point" pretty much everyone is happy with the recent recruiting efforts, assuming (A) that everyone that has committed signs the LOI in the next few weeks , and (B) that a decent center is added to the recruiting class.

I agree with your comment about the other side of the coin too. Hopefully we can all put both sides of the comments behind us and focus on the players :)

I wouldn't expect a traditional 1995 center to be a part of this class. They are mostly focusing on guys that are versatile on offense, can play inside and out; as well as athleticism on defense to guard pick and rolls.
