Kind of reminds me of Michael Akuchie

Project. Offense needs a lot of work, not much of it outside the paint.

Mud,that was my first reaction.    I'm not making any comments until I see a whole game and not highlights.

I've seen a bunch of full games on the other three verbals and have a good feel of what to expect.

Chief, I hope that Owens or the next big guy is more of a paint player.   Oakland,UIC,and CSU have that type of player.

Akuchie can shoot the 3 balls, FT and grab offensive rebounds.
After watching his highlights, I could only conclude that he could dunk the ball.
We will have to see if he can do the other stuffs.

These highlight tapes that only show highlights aren't very helpful if you want to know what you're getting.  This kid looks 6-8, think he may need a few lbs. to get to 220, but that will happen.  legit size makes any work on outside game worth the effort.
