either way. There are countless stories of guys like this that go onto to be pretty special. I'm hoping our coaching staff sees something unique in him that apparently everyone else is missing.

Looks like we are already seeing possible recruiting results of the game...

Get this kid a key to the annex and start practicing some threes!

Pretty encouraging that he is up to 36% this year (11 for 31 and 43.8% in

Just from what I see on Twitter, seems like an incredible story...

That’s great but we were BY FAR his best offer.

Maybe cause he hasn’t even been here for 2 years.

I'll grant a pass to coach pope on this.

TN_Coug

2/24/20 7:31pm

Hopefully. Kolby Lee was a 4 star recruit. We just had to beat out

The Dude Abides

2/24/20 7:34pm

Here is Lee's recruiting profile. Similiar offers.

TN_Coug

2/24/20 7:49pm

Yeah. Obviously Lee wasn’t a great player and isn’t a

I get it. He probably need a redshirt year to develop even more.

I don’t know, Ogden has the Pie.

Shades of Ziggy????

This is cool, on getting shoes for kids in Africa

BYUfan92

2/24/20 7:23pm

Maybe we should help him send thousands of shoes to Africa.

Y-Zag

2/24/20 7:26pm

Yeah, I think he's gonna have all the manpower he needs to help out with that

SingleStrapBackpack

2/24/20 9:57pm

Can we send a few thousand pairs with a Y logo on them? Maybe they'll help more

TailgateU

I hear we had a glut of socks a few years ago

LaserCoug

Was he at the game Saturday? I’d guess any recruit would have been impressed by that environment.

Pimpin4Paradise

2/24/20 7:25pm

Yes.

JadedCougar

2/24/20 7:43pm

He was at the game in in the locker room for the celebration.

Kid has some hops- link. We always need good athletes in the 6’5 to 6’7 range

BYUfan92

2/24/20 7:26pm

Diamond in the rough.

Y-Zag

2/24/20 7:30pm

He reminds me of every small forward that kills us each year

LeonMarek

2/24/20 7:35pm

There's a murder at the 55 second mark.

byubyu

2/24/20 7:39pm

He'll fill Haws's enforcer role nicely next year

SingleStrapBackpack

2/24/20 10:30pm

plays like Kawhi Leonard did at SDSU

Tangotongo

2/24/20 7:53pm

For 6'6 he looks awfully 6'4 to me - still excited to have him

UVCoug

2/24/20 7:58pm

7’1” wingspan

YIsForBrigham

2/24/20 8:34pm

Looks the opposite to me. Looks like good length, especially his arms. Looks like a big wingspan to me.

SingleStrapBackpack

2/24/20 10:01pm

I don't know how you can tell that . . .

LakeshowCougs

2/25/20 7:39am

I love the kids hops! Down inside he looks pretty good.

BYU I Bleed Blue

2/24/20 8:43pm

Hops and length. Looks like a super long wingspan.

IdahoCoug

2/24/20 9:37pm

Oof – RIP to the kid at the 0:58 mark

SingleStrapBackpack

2/24/20 10:00pm

Love this guy. So aggressive. A lot of guys about to get dunked on.

mokelembembe

2/24/20 7:28pm

Will fill Haws’s spot as resident 40 year old quite well

4th and Niner

2/24/20 7:30pm

I was thinking the same thing

maxpowers

2/24/20 8:12pm

I wonder if his teammate will be more likely to come now.

JadedCougar

2/24/20 7:46pm

My guess is they only wanted one of the two to commit...

mokelembembe

2/24/20 7:54pm

I wondered about that. They seem so similar.

JadedCougar

2/24/20 7:56pm

Well Pascal Siakam played at lowly NMSU, now one of the best in the nba

Run-DMT

2/24/20 8:37pm

We need depth at the wing so I get it. Though a juco guy, coaches may see him

Mitty

2/24/20 8:38pm

Athletic. Good around the hoop. We’ll have to teach him how to shoot.

canofpicante

2/24/20 8:54pm

He can shoot. It's not incredible but a kind of raw guy who is already shooting

Lip Gallagher

2/24/20 9:48pm

This guy can get UP! Serious hops.

andrewg3

2/24/20 9:56pm

Looks about Greg Oden's age when he was at OSU

shimmy

2/24/20 10:01pm

I look forward to cheering this dude on. I hope our coaches can develop him into a great player.

SingleStrapBackpack

2/24/20 10:31pm

Offers?

Everyone plays different roles. I have seen on here knocks on the team’s ability
