Sanogo makes big east all tourney team

[Husk04ies]

Good for him!

 

[AdamaNation]

Just think he’s not even the prized frosh!!

 

[rollskies]

His improvement from the beginning of this year alone is amazing. Already turning into a great player.

Not for nothing, but Wahab’s success is another indication that Hurley has an eye for talent. I’m looking forward to a few more Sanogo-Wahab battles.

 

[MexicoHusky]

He's very strong. Especially for a freshman. Actually reminds me of Voskuhl in that sense. The strength..... not much else.

 

[elmcityboy]

averaged an ultra-efficient 13.5 points, 4 boards, a block, and half a steal in less than 20 minutes. well deserved!

So many examples of his eye for talent. Cam Thomas, hyland, Kofi, even wong at Miami is a solid player. Some were obvious like cam Thomas others not so much

Great that he made the all tournament team. He was one of the biggest forces in the BET. Shame he played only 20 minutes in the semifinals.

Effectively, one of the most unstoppable forces of the tournament had to sit.

It’s time for people here to acknowledge that this year...this year...AJ hasn’t been anything but a physical curiosity.

And the jury is out as to whether he will ever be more than that. That said...

Sanogo has been the top freshman of this years class from day 1. Productivity matters more than style.

CONGRATS Adama
Great job and well deserved
Zegarowski gets way too much love - Jefferson was their best player
Strange that Blair received the award and not Harris at Gtown

Harris actually won Most Outstanding Player. The All-Tournament Team has five players in addition to the MOP.

Jon Rothstein showing some love for Adama this morning.

Sanogo's footwork is incredible. Combined with his patience it makes him very difficult to defend.

His biggest weakness is that once the ball goes in it never comes out. If he learned to get the ball to the perimeter when he is double teamed it would open the middle even more for him.

His strenght allows him to play like a much larger player. However he should rebound better especially on the defensive end. His tendency to collect unnecessary fouls have hurt his rebounding numbers.

Congratulations Adama. Keep doing things the right way. Proud of you.

Two thoughts for you, sir:

1. This is a thread celebrating Sanogo's achievement. It's not the "Airing of Grievances" during Festivus. Work harder not to be miserable.

2. You may be alone with your "physical curiosity" observation. I think I speak for many members of the BY when I say that - beyond his alien athleticism - the guy has shown that he has a great handle, a very high BBall IQ, the potential to be a stud defender, and, most importantly, he is among the best passers that has ever walked into Gampel Pavilion.

Here's a smiley face for you. ? I'm sorry your mother didn't hug you more often.

Wow. Did AJ run over your dog? Steal your girlfriend? Wreck your pickup truck?

Was wondering if you would comment.

They won't let me reply directly, or quote him. There's some lame admin block.

No, no, and yes. Just being honest with what I’ve seen. Anyone here who disagrees, that’s fine. Can’t believe how fragile peoples feelings are here when someone disagrees with them.
