His highlight reel looks awfully similar to Sanogo's...Maybe the NCAA Tournament MOP should give him a call ;)

I was thinking the same thing. A little baby deerish, but a S&C program to help with his strength and natural maturity will get him right there.
 
His defense looks more advanced (at this age) than AS at this age.. Obviously is taller than AS which makes the difference in shot blocking more of a weapon.. Real nice footwork on O to get in position to get his shots off

@FriarJ we were happy for you when you guys had your dream season a couple years ago. Why can’t you be happy for us that we’re in a place now where is hard fathom a rationale for a recruit going to pc when UConn is an option.

Where has he been:)

LOL, recruits just give mercy finalist spots to tiny catholic schools in the smallest state in the country. We have as much chance as you do here. Zero. Oh, and go fys. You know as much about this young man’s thought process as I do.

It's always heartening to see Catholic school fans gratuitously throwing out -bombs............
Sorry, I couldn't resist. A friend (PC fan) told me he's heard lots of good things about English and we'll find out soon enough just how good he'll be.

The thing that really reeks on this board is absolute lies being treated as truths, just because. It’s been stated that PC’s NILis terrible? They were the first BE team to form a collective and it’s actually one of the better ones in the entire BE. Right now Creighton, and Marquette have the best (being run by former players help) PC’s is very good. People are jacked and pissed off and it’s showing with $.

Also, I agree we don’t know what we have with English but early returns are positive. Yesterday in the Athletic.

A 34-year-old ‘rising star’ takes over at Providence — and bets on his brain

Kim English says his focus is on having his players reach their "full potential" and putting Providence basketball "in the best light."

So these "collectives" you mentioned are the key to recruiting great players and winning championships?

Being too short was likely the difference between Sanogo being drafted in the 2nd round and going undrafted.

Ngongba is a legit 6’10”, right? Let him cook in the School of Dan Hurley for a couple years and he’ll be a first rounder

He’s looking at UConn, Kansas, Indiana and Duke. No brainer thanks to the dairy bar.

SnC (in college) will help with his lift/explosion.. Playing vs HS comp can make it easy for a big guy due to their size advantage.. Prime time D-1 comp vs athletic Bigs is different..

I think “similar gameplay” is the only thing you’re allowed to say on here until he commits to UConn and wins a national championship as an all time great. Then, and only then, you are allowed to compare…lol.

Also not a bad example to show recruits who happen to possess a similar gameplay.
 
Sanogo would’ve been drafted if he was a couple inches taller. Hopefully that sells with Ngongba.

I think winning a National Championship and our center being the MOP sells itself.

Clingan is also about to be a top 10 draft pick. Ngongba shouldn’t have to worry about Hurley’s ability to get kids into the NBA. 2 lottery picks in the last 3 years, and that number is about to double after Castle and Clingan go in the 2024 draft. If he doesn’t come here, it ain’t because of our system, program pedigree, or coaching staff.

But, to be fair, Providence really had a good a shot as anyone for Davis. Well anyone but Overtime Elite apparently.
 
NJHoops said:
Why are people still doing this? Overtime Elite is like a high school in this case. It changes nothing about Davis’s commitment to Providence.

It also has absolutely nothing to do with Patrick Ngongba.

It’s insane. Not to mention we literally have a guy on our team (Singare) who played in the Overtime Elite League last year.
