On the upside, Slim has reported on the other board that a person with the same name played on the Senegal Olympic team in 1968 and 1972. I will assume it was his father. From the Trib article we can glean that he spent years in Senegal, Japan, Utah and now California among what I will assume is a lot of stops along the way. He appears to be the 3rd or 4th best player on his Juco team so far. I hope I am very very wrong but I see him replacing Theis in terms of both size and minutes. I see a project coming here with 3 years of eligibility. He seems more suited to a half court offense/defense. I don't recall seeing runs the floor well in his list of assets.We will continue to disagree duq81 on the need for truly big people in our system. I am far more comfortable with 6-6, 6-7 kids who can leap, run and has great instincts.

I understand that this kid runs the floor well and has some skills around the basket. I think he will be a nice fit at DU. There is the question about the stops along the way but that is common for foreigh players. The good news he has three years eligibility. (NT) -- CLK, Tuesday, November 30, 05:25:37pm
