uneblinstu Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 Should I lock this one, too as a preemptive measure? Silverbacked1, 49r and a0t0w0 3 Quote

Silverbacked1 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 How about 150 topics on the same kid but you are only allowed one comment before a new topic is to be started. This will keep a thread below the 20 page curse. Quote
OurDecay Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 7-5 wingspan and can grab the rim standing flat footed. Whoa. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 7-5 wingspan and can grab the rim standing flat footed. Whoa. For comparison's sake, I can also grab a rim standing flat footed. If the rim is 7'6" high. hhcmatt 1 Quote
Minnesota_Husker Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 7-5 wingspan and can grab the rim standing flat footed. Whoa. For comparison's sake, I can also grab a rib standing flat footed. If the rim is 7'6" high. Auto-correct just made me hungry. and also made me concerned if i ever have ribs with D'jery that he will be able grab them from far away. hhcmatt 1 Quote
twinswingohuskers Posted May 10, 2014 Report Posted May 10, 2014 I haven't ever commented on these recruits till they are signed, so maybe if I chime in here it will be good luck. It's nice to see "firmly in the mix" in Robin's tweet. Have at him Tim. Quote
uneblinstu Posted May 10, 2014 Report Posted May 10, 2014 Hopefully he'll pan out like the other Baptiste recently on campus did if we can get him on board. Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted May 10, 2014 Report Posted May 10, 2014 He's on the rise and will wait out the summer before deciding on which 5 schools to officially visit. Quote
lanigan123 Posted May 10, 2014 Report Posted May 10, 2014 It sounds like wants to sign in fall. May visit during aau dead period. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted May 10, 2014 Report Posted May 10, 2014 Man, I would love to have this kid... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRaIlgjGorQ AuroranHusker 1 Quote
fred1212 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 he seems to have a slow release on his dunks.. Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 He is the poor mans D12 but would be NU's Superman no doubt. Quote
jimmykc Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 Sounds like he has flat feet. That may be a red flag. Quote
lanigan123 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 Completely agree w Kamdy, poor mans D12. If you can picture he and morrow on the block defensively. Wow. This lineup works, smith or Watson, Webster, Cornish, morrow and then Hammond/berry Quote
ajb5856 Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Posted May 18, 2014 Robin retweeted this video of D'Jery. Amazing. http://www.d1circuit.com/news_article/show/386470?referrer_id=1211873 Quote
Norm Peterson Posted May 19, 2014 Report Posted May 19, 2014 Wow. That's really cool. I'm sure that'll come in handy at some point in the season if he gets a breakaway at half-court. I would be curious to see his development since the last highlight or game video that's been posted, though. I think the most recent video I've seen was from the season before last. Quote

Just came across this video posted on May 6, 2014. Looks to be a mix of older and more recent highlights. He is a dang circus freak though...seriously...wow. Quote
