That recruitment must have gotten weird. He cut UVA from his list last Fall or early Winter I think. Looked like he was headed to Houston or Arizona in the 2023 class. His dad played at UNLV, hometown team.
Two things about Cisse- first one kinda random, but Gary Parrish’s son went to HS with him and helped him with homework / tutored him or whatever.
Ole Miss is definitely closer to home, so maybe waiver worthy, but then, Memphis was home and he left, which kinda undercuts that….
Yep… i remember Parrish talking about him a lot during the pandemic
Interesting I guess he’s gotten some promises that he’ll be a late lottery guy

Interesting. While I am generally a disciple of @Hooandtrue ’s wing buffet theory, this is kinda the downside. The really good ones are Audi the moment they flash.
It amazes me how little college stats etc mean for some guys as it pertains to NBA draft. Barely remember him at Wake (maybe injured?)
Shed shut him down (ie, the few minutes he played vs us overlapped with the few minutes Shed played and he wasn’t involved in their offense at all)
These details might be wrong, but the story feels accurate
Makes sense. I just remember their guards (Monsanto and Applebees) and the english dude I do remember thinking their bigs were soft
Yeah, they had the soft English center, the soft Delaware transfer who RD crushed, and the tall English red head guard who was kind of a dawg (Hildreth). I really like Monsanto (the player, not the Bayer subsidiary).
Coulda called him the Crop Duster or some shit
He averaged pretty much 8 and 8 over his last 10, can shoot and handle it well at 6’10”, good prospect
Even while being recruited he was a man of mystery lol.
They will really have the monopoly on soft bigs in the ACC next season, and no one to provide athleticism and assertiveness in the frontcourt without Bobi. I already like how we matchup against them, I think IMac with another year of physical development will be ready for Hildreth’s little big man type of game.
Efton Reid is coming in as a transfer
Yep, but I don’t think he helps with what they are missing from their frontcourt without Bobi.

So dumb he’s coming back and we probably won’t get Reece back
*eye rolls
Now is the time to tell me that Beekman is coming back. You’re on the clock @HoozGotNext
He didn’t even get a combine invite though
