When was the last time we landed 5 4 stars? 2006?

20 minutes ago.

Or four 4 stars and one 5 star.

Last time we landed four 4 stars, the best one was the 3 star.. ha

 

[aburks41]

Is Singare someone who is likely going to be a late riser in the rankings or is he comfortably in that 100-120ish range?

Yeah but he had the heart of a lion

I would say 100-120 is fair because his offensive upside is limited. You know he’s a great rim protector so he’s safe, but the lack of a high ceiling usually keeps kids like him in that range. Still would be a big win convincing him to come in one year after Clingan.

Man he’s good

 

[dennismenace]

I was just thinking I don’t know much about this kid and do we want him or is he a guy bc they missed on a bunch. Thanks for the write-up.

I loved Brimah and if he had Calhoun he’d have been a 1st rounder. Sign me up for another Brimah who might be a quicker leaper! Thanks @Ricker

Long live the Brimah Chop (vs St Joes)!

Brimah had bad hands problem. He also got overhyped and did not make a lot of good decisions on the court though I loved the passion he played with. This kid looks amazingly fluid in the open court and a lot more savvy on defense. Much more upside vs Brimah in my opinion.

He’s Brimah now and still learning. I mean even open court in the fact he can handle the ball is an improvement but he’s raw. A couple of the jump hooks after some decent foot work were nice. Nice piece to go along with Clingan.

 

[rip7774]

Watching this vid
1) super impressed with his confidence handling the ball (mostly right for sure)
2) had a nice creative pass near the hoop
3) comfortable with the ball
4) ok stroke at worst

I figured Id just see dunks and blocks. Very impressed. A project big obv but a lot to work with here!

Love for others who have seen him to weigh in.

What’s his story is he a reclass, late bloomer what? Or is it I just don’t follow recruiting anymore really. Thanks!

Offense is gping to be a project. You can tell from the videos his footwork, balance, and touch aren't great. Bigs always take longer to develop though... no concern really

Looks like he'll have a great build for a 7 footer though with athleticism on top of it. Great place to start from.

 

[MDHuskFan]

He reminds me slightly of what I thought we would get out of Dimon Carrigan.

 

[uconnever]

He’s a little wild, like he might hurt one of our guys in practice. If he can be contained and trained, could be good.

I am no insider and have no info, but something tells me that both guys gave silent verbals last weekend. They decided by pecking order by ranking that Jaylin would announce first this week. Then, after Jaylin has had his weekend to celebrate and bask in the spotlight, Youssouf will then announce sometime next week. It just feels like a done deal.

doubt it was decided by ranking, but the rest I’m on board with. Tipton probably needs time to make two edits as well.

Reminds me a bit of Brimah

I like that he goes straight up on his blocks. Very nice. I really like the idea of 2 7 footers on the roster. Does remind me of Brimah. Loved that kid.

Did Singare get any Lays chips??

Insomnia cookies, rumor has it he was jealous of Stewart’s Chips Ahoy. Very concerning.

5 kids don't pose in a photo like that unless they were all 10 toes in.

Fridays seem to be our commitment day. I’d bet on an announcement on Friday (I literally know nothing but had the feeling something was coming the day Roumoglou committed, and had a feeling Stewart was going to commit Friday). Just seems to be a pattern.

Honestly i thought that was photoshopped.

Brimah would have been a LOT better with any coaching staff that put any work into developing players. The lack of player development, IMO, was the worst thing about the Ollie tenure. Brimah was barely any better when he graduated then he was when he made that and-1 as a freshman. Simply astounding.

I guess if someone is saying a player can be impactful as Brimah as a freshman, it's a compliment, but if they're saying the recruit's ceiling is the same as the one Brimah showed, it's not.
