Femi Is Player To Watch This Winter



Femi Ibikunle, a 6-9, 245 pound power forward from the New Hampton School in New Hampton, N.H., has seen a number of programs come in to take a look at him this fall.

According to New Hampton Head Coach Jamie Arsenault, Louisville, Boston College, Connecticut, Memphis, St. John's and Iowa State are just a small sampling of the schools who have made the pilgrimage up to New Hampshire to see "Femi." Arsenault also told us that Cincinnati is also being considered. "Memphis has offered," Arsenault said. "Cincinnati is close to offering."

"He's been playing so well this fall," Arsenault said. "He's a natural."

A native of Africa, Ibikunle made his American debut this summer by playing with Mickey Walker's Donyell Marshall Foundation program at the adidas Big Time Tournament in Las Vegas, Nev.

Blessed with an excellent frame and a developing offensive game, Ibikunle has progressed rapidly at New Hampton this fall. Arsenault said that Femi picks up things very quickly, and that he could be his best big man on this year's squad.

That is saying something, since New Hampton will also have the services of 7-0 Julius Lamptey of Oklahoma this winter.

While many big time programs are interested in "Femi," he is not going to do anything this fall regarding his recruitment.

"Femi is not taking any visits now," Arsenault said. "He is going to take all of his visits in the spring."
