I thought you might be hyping him a bit much, but he is on youtube and looks fluid:

Watch this video on YouTube

If his condition is really gone, I'd find a way to make it happen.

Yeah, not a fit for BYU unless he can do this.

8man

3/23/15 12:03pm

They still don't have a spare scholarship, but I'd love to see him walk on.

byubyu

3/22/15 9:44pm

Is he really 7'4"?

notxamius

3/22/15 9:45pm

Sure looks like it.

byubyu

3/22/15 9:48pm

Then I say you take a chance

notxamius

3/22/15 9:49pm

Certainly looks athletic enough but looks like he weighs 180 lbs

I saw him a few months ago and I wouldn't be surprised

How is his heart? I assume he has marfan's syndrome

kotacoug

3/22/15 9:47pm

His mom is 6'7" & his dad a little taller than that. He's probably "normal."

Mantis Mutu

He makes Jen look like a pixie.

CaughtForaTouchdown

3/23/15 9:39am

Jen's teenage sister looks to have an inch or two on her already. Crazy!

Mantis Mutu

3/23/15 10:17am

Oh man, if she can do 1/5th of what Jen did for BYU, that would be awesome.

Y Mountain

3/23/15 10:24am

She looks to be a bit thicker than Jen (even though I think she's only 15

If she's Tyler rather than TJ, I'd be fine with that.

I don't care if he ends up never getting off the bench, you take a chance

notxamius

3/22/15 10:08pm

Yeah he actually looks like a basketball player. Get him!

Ash

3/22/15 10:15pm

Is he even jumping to dunk? Dang he is tall

thecelloguy

3/23/15 6:37am

His block & steal of TJ Haws was impressively athletic. I can't believe

Mantis Mutu

DANG. He can move for a big man.

BYU-TIFUL

3/22/15 10:14pm

Yep, this is the problem. Maybe he would join the roster for a year as a walk-on

Y Mountain

3/23/15 7:56am

I hope he gained weight on his mission as well.

THE KlD

3/22/15 10:15pm

Hes 7'4 and has awesome bloodlines. If he isn't given a preferred walk on spot

ayfan

If his family is inquiring about a possible scholarship.....

beauso79

We need this family's gene pool staying at BYU. Find a place!

AF Cougar

He can block shots even as a bean pole, see Shawn Bradley

notxamius

3/22/15 10:23pm

I'm not sure Shawn as a Frosh even qualified as a bean pole. Dude was thin!

Mantis Mutu

3/22/15 11:56pm

yet Bradley still had like 30 lbs on this kid.

southernfriedcougar

3/23/15 12:08am

Impossible. Shawn stepped onto BYU campus at under 200 lbs.

Mantis Mutu

3/23/15 12:14am

Yeah and Alan weighed around 170-180 in HS.

Having a rod screwed onto your spine is no joke.

That's reasonable.

We have a 7'0" center? That's news.

BW84

3/22/15 11:42pm

well Austin isn't much of a C but yes he's 7'0.

southernfriedcougar

3/22/15 11:51pm

No he's not.

byubyu

3/23/15 12:05am

Yes, he is. He confirmed that he was measured again and now 7'0.

southernfriedcougar

3/23/15 12:08am

He's listed on the team website as 6'11". Basketball teams don't usually

BW84

3/23/15 12:11am

yes, we know.

southernfriedcougar

3/23/15 12:20am

They did change if to 7ft. Then they measured him and changed it back.

byubyu

3/23/15 12:35am

yeah and they also kept Worthington at 6'10. whoopee

southernfriedcougar

3/23/15 12:38am

You asked, I told you. Believe what you want.

Scoliosis on a big is usually a conversation-stopper.

Mantis Mutu

3/22/15 11:32pm

When does he get back from his mission. You said "soon."

kC Cougar

3/23/15 7:11am

With the type of potential his vid shows, if he's 7'2"+ he should go where he

Mantis Mutu

He will have to be much healthier and athletic

I'd be very surprised if Toolson goes back.

You can't teach height, but you can teach the rest.

Can you teach weight? Strength? Quickness?

I would love another Shawn Bradley -let's hope preferred walk-on status is good

HarlemCoug

3/23/15 10:47am

I don't know if preferred walk on status means a whole lot

southernfriedcougar

3/23/15 10:51am

Can he borrow some time with Coach Wintrich? Needs to gain probably 80 pounds.

VenetianCougar

3/23/15 11:52am

Shawn Bradley could only eat about 7,000 calories per day before his body would

Can someone who knows the BYU coaching staff make sure they consider this kid?
