Yes, if you compare him to those 3 MEN...then yes, he will get killed. But, you cannot teach his size or work ethic. This frame doesn't grow on trees, and for a school like NDSU who has struggled to get a center in, I am sort of shocked this isn't bigger news. Kid is the real deal. If he was fully ready to dominate as an 18 year old, he would be in the big ten. He can run and jump....and that may sound easy, but not to all 7 footers. He isn't a stick. looking forward to see him in 2-5 years...we may be on to something with him.
Everyone just relax, all right? Believe me, if there's one thing Ron Burgundy knows, it's women.
"not to all 7 footers"........this is so true; saw it first hand last night as I referreed at Sioux City West vs Spirit Lake, Iowa. SL had a junior 7 footer that DID NOT SEE THE FLOOR...... zero, nadda, nyet, nein playing time. After watching him in warmups, I could see why. The kid has another year, so who knows. Also, SC West is coached by former Bison basketball player CoCo Cofield; played for Tim Miles in 2004 and 2005. As I was walking toward the dressing room prior to the game, Coach Cofield saw that I had a Bison cap on.......came up to me to greet me and we chatted about our Bison affiliations .......good man and a good coach !

Good thing National Signing Day has come & gone.....
Middleton's Tyree Eady with a big game against Stevens Point, in front of recruiters from big schools.
And why were the big school coaches there.....There were college coaches from Marquette and Iowa in the stands.
So while coaches were there scouting the other team's 2018 star 6' 8"Stevens Point junior forward Joey Hauser — a top-25 recruit nationally in the Class of 2018 — led the fourth-ranked Pointers with 32 points and 11 rebounds.
player, Tyree Eady has a big game, helping his team to victory.....
http://middletontimes.com/articles/2...-stevens-pointMiddleton played arguably its finest game of Kevin Bavery’s 11-year tenure and routed Stevens Point — the two-time WIAA Division 1 defending state champion — 96-66.
Eady had a terrific game with 26 points and 10 rebounds, while senior guard Storm Murphy had 15 of his 19 points in the second half. Senior guard C.J. Fermanich added 12 points, while senior reserve forward Ben Jackson added 11 points.
I know it's a ways down the road but with the size we are bringing in when Khy is a senior our starting lineup could be as long and athletic as any P5 program:
PG - Khy - 6'5"
SG - Ward/Eady - 6'6"
SF - Geu - 6'8"
PF - Rocky - 6'9"
C - Jordan - 7'
That's some crazy size, now we just need all those guys to show up and develop so that's very wishful thinking but I think we can all agree we are in pretty good hands with Khy, Ward & Geu long term.
