NashvilleBilliken Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Who is this guy?! I'm watching the UNC v UNC-Ashville highlights. This guy is 7'7 360lbs. He is a freakin monster. They are throwing him alley oops and he doesn't even have to jump. I've never heard of this guy before, but he makes Tyler Hansboro look like a dwarf.

Taj79 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 The video on that guy was amazing! Equally amazing, and even more impressive, was the psycho dunk Hansborough threw down on him! The guy wears a sixe 26 shoe! When he's done playing basketball, they can sink those tugs and turn them into artificial off-shore reefs! I didn't see it but is he a freshman? What yer was he? How the heck does NC-Asheville lose a game in their conference? I've seen Manute Bol and Georghe Muresan and even Shawn Bradley and ralph Sampson and while they had height, they had no body mass to back up that height. This guy was height and weight proportionate. I didn't get the impression he was highly skilled but he was just as skilled as Greg Oden was and look where he ended up (injury not included).

Crazy. It is unbelievable how small Tyler H. looks next to that guy. I felt kind of bad when Kenny got dunked on by Tyler, he's just too big and slow. Also, it took him 8 seconds to get down the court that one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL Hoops Insider Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 He didn't jump to block that dunk attempt anyway and it was an obvious travel. Check out these highflyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality Is Job 1 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 The guy next to him is Reyshawn Terry- listed at 6'8 Good grief, that's a giant! He's about two feet taller than me! He'd be Goliath to my David. If I were trying to play basketball and I saw that guy step over the sideline, I'd have to tell my coach, "Excuse me, but can I go change my underwear now?" (Who was that Kansas State player who couldn't wait?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the heck did his school find uniforms and practice jerseys for him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out these highflyers. staffalacockeye speaqs the truf. a kwote from jorj: "I saw him coming to the basket. I just kept my hands straight up," George said. "I had him. I just forgot to jump. He jumped. I didn't jump." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Hoops Insider Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm actually a little surprised that one of the high-major schools didnt take a chance on him. If his body can hold up, there is little doubt that he will play professionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcus aurelius Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well he did travel Of course he did. However, VTime's had it in for Tyler for a while now.... That's okay, it's likely that TH is simultaneously the most popular and most unpopular player from MO in a good while, if internet message boards are any indication....
