The more I watch video on him the more puzzled I am he wasn’t recruited by more major programs. Albeit, his junior college opposition may not be D1 material, his speed alone should’ve peaked the interest of many. What seems to be his downside beside his weight?

I think one factor that served in our favor is that he got injured early last season. Who knows the exposure he missed out on. Also, he visited several programs and had several more lined up before he decided on ETSU. Still, your point is well taken: Athletic, seven-footers who can run the floor are at a premium at the midmajor level.
