Title: 7' 5" Hoops Player From Senegal Hones His Skills At Small School In The O.C. Post by: 2Stater on January 31, 2012, 12:29:23 PM http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/eye-performance/201201/mamadou-ndiaye-basketball-senegal-tallest-player
Quote High schoolers taller than seven feet are often thin as a nail or awkwardly immobile. Ndiaye is neither. Last summer an opposing team pressed Brethren but left Ndiaye open at halfcourt. With his long stride, Ndiaye took two dribbles and already was dunking the basketball. I wonder if CAG has his eye on this kid?

Post by: ricky023 on January 31, 2012, 01:41:40 PM I sure hope so, we need some players who can play 4 Qtrs. in my opinion. They also hunger to win and stand tall above all others. We seem to not have that hunger is needed to win most all games or even a big one sometimes. I look forward to when we can push Vandy around and play KY. so hard they are scared when they leave our gym. RTR!

He would definitely stand above the others and push people around. This guy could make Shaq look like a finesse player. :D Title: Re: 7' 5" Hoops Player From Senegal Hones His Skills At Small School In The O.C.

Yeah, I remember him Coach. According to the article, this kid is athletic and has skill and isn't thin like most plus 7 footers. I guess only time will tell.

I wish there was some video on him, I would like to see him play.

I wish there was some video on him, I would like to see him play. There are several videos on youtube. He is slow. He is playing in a class equal to 2A in Alabama. He does not jump. That will work against 6'-2" centers in 2A but not college. Very clumsy. Title: Re: 7' 5" Hoops Player From Senegal Hones His Skills At Small School In The O.C.

The answer was that he once killed a lion after his little brother with a stick!Title: Re: 7' 5" Hoops Player From Senegal Hones His Skills At Small School In The O.C.

I wish there was some video on him, I would like to see him play. Here you go, J. Most of the footage is of him under the basket, but they do show him running the floor once or twice. Looks like he can cover it. He's pretty athletic for a guy that big, even though he is playing against very small HS players. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/highschool-prep-rally/7-foot-5-mamadou-ndiaye-prep-highlights-absolutely-183735847.html Title: Re: 7' 5" Hoops Player From Senegal Hones His Skills At Small School In The O.C.

Aside from playing against what appears to be 9 year olds, he seems to be afraid (or has been taught) to never pick up his pivot foot. JG would make him cry.There is no quick-fix gimmick to Bama success. The old-fashion way is being employed by CAG and much progress is being made.
