I'm starting to wonder if Clingan will be back next year. It's been said a few times on this board. He's enormous.... and not slow.
Being a CT boy, he probably wants to win a NC for his home state. Beyond that, i'm not sure theres a ton of reasons for him to play another year in college.
It looks like he just needs to continue his workout regimen for another 6 months and he'll be NBA ready

Alleyne wasn't terrrible when he had a chance to play. Unfortunately he was playing in foul trouble most of the game. Diarra is a poor man's Taliek Brown. LOL!

Do you not think he could be learning everything he's learning in the NBA right now?
I definitely think some GM would take a mobile 7'2" guy in the first round

No, he's a kid. He's a really good huge kid. NBA isn't really big on huge really good kids now, that's why pretty much all of them remain in college.
He's uncommonly good for a 7'2 big INMO. Unless they're surefire top 5 recruits the NBA is all over of out of high school they're not much on the radar. Most guys near that size are awkward, have their head down, aren't talkers, don't move right...
I think Clingan is going to be special, NBA won't be focused on him until he cleans stuff up and shows a lot more....enjoy him....
Clingan is going to be a force.

Love seeing Clingan, from my BCHS roots. Want to see him get a few more blocks, a few of the bigs were scooping the ball up around him and then off of the glass. It’ll come. He’s way ahead of schedule. The S&C program needs some props. Exciting to watch this team
We are to going need Clingan in the coming days because there is one team we may end up facing somewhere down the line this year, possibly in the NCAA tournament.
That team is purdue, and they have MASSIVE frontline. I checked their roster and they have nit one but two guys over 7 feet tall. Zach Edey is 7'4" and 290 lbs and another center is 7'2" (I forgot his name) and a buch of other big guys 6'10" or 6'11". Their back is big too.
However...
We are still pretty big ourselves and I think match up well against purdue. We also have our POY in Sanogo.
I think we also need to get Sampson Johnson back asap from his foot injury as well.

Carlton was stronger except his freshman year . If Clingan matured physically to get to 20-21 year old Carlton Level strength day next year he will be a lottery pick .
He is bigger ,a better passer , better footwork and a better touch.

When he’s knocking down 3s like Bill Laimbeer we can start worrying about it. Until then I don’t think he’s attracting NBA interest.

Me too. I will do the same if and when @Fishy admits he was wrong about Sanogo taking threes. And yes, I'm not giving up on this until he does, or Sanogo just falls apart from three the rest of the season.

I know this was a game against inferior talent and size, but its the first game of the season, and I'm an excited casual! :D Alleyne flashed early and looked like a dude. Took Newton a bit longer to get going scoring wise, but his assist to Adama early was eye opening and both of these guards...

I know his FT percentage is less than ideal & his first 3pt attempt was way off, but he has a great looking form. He’s a good athlete for his size & has good instincts for a freshman. Tremendous potential.

A lot of Boneyarders should express a mea culpa vis a vie Calcaterra.
