Man if he turns us down the only one left is Dogmania. Anyone know how big Dog is without shoes?

Yeah, not nearly tall enough. And waaaaay too old!

You're not looking to see what he does vs a 6'3" white dude rather what his skills are that can fit.......he's big and ... True he is big and athletic. Not his fault all Canadians are short. Hey! (With a Canadian accent)

Yeah, especially all those Canadians in Kentucky eh.

ESPN doesn't have him evaluated yet, but look at that offer list! Kid is clearly a player, and I would love a 6'8" 230lb traditional 4 to combo with Robinson, a stretch 4.

Good name too. How does that kasongo?

Here's an article on him from May which gives you some good information.

If I were Ollie, this is the way I'd play this weekend: I'd lavish all my attention on Kasongo and Newberry, and I'd tell the team manager to escort Lyle around the facility for several hours.

Not enough Hilton units to even come close to suiting up for UConn, plus I've already used up all my eligibility.

Kasongo also just transferred from the school in Wisconsin to Phase 1 Academy in Arizona. His advisor is Ro Russell, advisor also to X. Ratan-Mayes at FSU and others.

You gotta wonder if Kasongo's talent is so much greater than his ranking precisely because a lot of schools are staying away from his recruitment.

I dont think he even made it to the St Johns Military Academy in Wis. for more than a week or two at the most
Military school is not for everyone, I would not hold that one against him


He is also very interested in LSU and Florida State.

@coreyevans_10: With visit to UConn this weekend, could see Ray Kasongo being a giant priority for Huskies after missing on Terry Larrier early this week

But this is yet another time we've seen Kasongo mistaken as a SF. He's not. Larrier was going to play the wing for the Huskies, some PF when UConn plays 3 guards.

 

[3uconn]

Also asked him who else was after Kasongo and he said:
@coreyevans_10: @B_WRecruiting front runners would be Oregon, FSU, and UConn, along with KU and UK showing further interest

@coreyevans_10: @B_WRecruiting personally think he ends up at uconn or oregon

He said this after I asked him if he was a power forward:
@coreyevans_10: @B_WRecruiting correct but still more of your face-up variety..more physical breed than a Larrier type

@RayKasongo32: Chilling at the airport, on my way to my first official visit at the UCOON (University of Connecticut)!!!! Very excited and cant wait !!!!!

Ugh... face palm.

 

[Vancat]

a mere slip of the finger

 

[HooperScooper]

Hey, he spelled Connecticut right!

Hey, he spelled Connecticut right!

Never under value that.

U-C-O-O-N, UCOON, UCOON, UCOON!

 

[Dogbreath2U]

I like the sentiment.

None of us have never, ever, ever made a typo...
