Looks like robin retweeted it. I see he's an Aussie. Not much info otherwise.

Looks like he does have some low end Div 1 offers.  Might be interested if he was 6'10 or taller

When you google search him it pulls up some old discussions from Aussie basketball message boards.  Seems like consensus on there is that he was super talented but had a bad attitude, lazy, and not willing to work on the deficiencies.

 

He would be a great walk on if he was willing to do so.  In fact, that would be quite the coup imo if we got him to walk on.  I think he definitely has low D1 ability.

Surprised a team like UNO wouldn't all over a kid like Chima as they transition to D-1 in the next year or 2...

[Dead Dog Alley]

Well, he's in the tournament and AWIII isn't.  14.4 ppg, 9.4 rpg at UC Davis.

And UC-Davis is the school that Logan Strom will be playing for next season.

 

The Aggies had their 1st NCAA win tonight 67-63. Move on to take on #1 seed KU! Pretty cool.

For a brief moment I thought another Menke was coming.
