Wow! That’s quite a list and no surprise.

I hope the best for him on his future endeavors. Apparently Kofi is coming here, per Chief lol.
 
Insane frame and measurements. Looks a bit uncoordinated to me though.

Calling out all certified HS teachers... Let's meet at Gampel tomorrow. We each get 30 minutes with Cliff. Afterwards tell him he can skip his senior year provided he signs a LOI with the huskies.

Ill be there!

For the record, I talked about the possibility of him reclassifying in a thread a week or two ago. Not trying to get all Chiefy here, just thought I would throw it out there. I’m not an insider, but I had heard talk of the staff looking into him as a possible reclass after they missed on Kofi. I think Wahab is still priority #1, but Cliff is the real deal. He’s a longer, taller version of Akok and can step out and hit the 3. Hurley is trying to build a Nova type roster where all 5 players are a threat from anywhere on the floor.

Weird because I'm seeing 0 3PA 2017-2019 in HS or AAU, and bad FT%.

He’s an above average shooter at his size. His HS team doesn’t utlilize him in this role. Hoping our staff can reel this kid in because he has the ability to be a stud. Highly underrated in my opinion.

How do you know? Don't disagree just curious.

Yeah I've never seen him play so I wouldn't know anyway, but was just digging through any data I could find on him.

Since this was posted just after midnight is the visit Fri or Sat.
If Saturday, do they ever look at weather forecasts?

Number one I’ve seen him play. But if you don’t want to take my word for it here’s a clip of Cliff. Note the 3 pointer he hits with a defender in his face at the end of the video.

Gonna be gonest with you--all the highlights I've seen don't show me a great shooter yet. In the workout vid someone Iposted, he did have decent form. That seems to suggest that he has the potential to get there, but I wouldn't vategorize him as a "shooter" yet. My center hits 87% from the FT line and 48% from 3 in shooting drills and workouts (we track it electronically). He has yet to take a jump shot in games, despite me drawing plays to get him comfortable with it.

"Can shoot" and "shooter" are different here imo.

Certainly, I hope you prove me wrong though!

Polley taught me the difference.

The timing of this visit is interesting considering Wahab might be committing on the 30th.

Well, I'll defer judgment to those who have seen more of him. To me, looks a lot like Brimah. Long, good timing on blocks, likes to dunk, can run the floor. He seemed a little surprised to have hit the one jumper on the video. But I'll buy, on defensive presence alone.

You mean “positionless”

I did. Too lazy to correct it.
