Zeigler has some notes about him - is most noted for his defense - rim protector style of play
as noted a thin frame - so decision will be made later if he should red shirt or play next season

A diamond in the rough. Our coaches will make him much, much better. Oldie Out In 3 years this kid will add 20-30lbs of muscle, probably grow 1 or 2 inches and develop all his skills. I want to see the before and after video when that happens.

Oldie Out It's important to note, that this video is 3 years old and that he has been at the NBA Africa Academy for the last year with a much better training facility, curriculum, and higher level of talent and teaching. Plus, his NBA draft eligibility starts in 2028. (I am NOT saying he would be drafted, but its 5 years away. That's a long time to work on his game)

I feel like this dude and Gwath are like Joel and Nate Mensah from a few years back. I’m not sure which will excel but I’m pretty sure in 1-2 years one of these guys will be a rotation player and the other at the end of the bench. But I guess that’s the expectation from below the radar bigs.

That video looks rough. If it's 3 years old then a LOT can change though

Yeah I have no idea how good he is. No recent film other then him swatting a bunch of shots, which he appears to be good at. I would love to see tape of him posting up, shooting, etc.

Obviously, hopefully they both excel not just for the team but Thokbor and Magoon Gwath on the court together sound like supervillains that could defeat the Avengers.

I did finally see a note that "he's being introduced" at some point in the next week, but usually odd to not see more on the topic (sooner). ; )

Good recap by Zeigler or sort of confusing if TM is still working on paperwork that needs to be completed fairly soon or he would be free to sign at the next signing time is that April
Dutcher can not comment until he signs
Coug hope you are ok with the questioning of your question - similar to what I get

THANKs Gundo for posting. With the AG hiring this has the potential of bringing in a direct pipeline of players to SDSU. This a way to build a great relationship withIn this area of Sudan. Nothing has more meaning then having a former player/now coach and a current player coming in to Sudan. AG hiring looks like a win/win on so many fronts. Super happy for AG. For Thokbor will need to add some major weight. I hope he likes Burritos and rolled tacos. Based on your clip dude is not a stiff, looks to be good on his feet, and can handle the ball at times as a big man. Let's hope he doesn't have any food restrictions.

after watching Aztecs get clobbered on the boards against BYU - wonder if Dutcher uses him next season or asks him to red shirt

will be interesting to see next season if he is able to get PT or is red shirted little doubt with Ledee and even Jay Pal leaving Aztecs will need help down low
was good to see TDM did sign early
hope Dutcher can arrange for all the HS recruits to drop into The V - and fans have a chance to see them - not sure when their HS team may play near San Diego
