Now THIS is a transfer target that would get me excited

6'11/230 big man
2 years of eligibility left
11.7 pts, 6.3 rebs as a sophomore at UNC-Charlotte
Very good shooter for a big (48 made 3's as a sophomore at .381% and .744 FT%)
Muslim background, honor code wouldn't be a shock.
Played for Egyptian national U17 team

Charlotte transfer Aly Khalifa tells TPR that he has received interest from:

Florida
SMU
Memphis
Vanderbilt
Butler
WSU
Xavier
Wichita State
Colorado
Clemson
Marquette
Charleston
BYU
San Francisco
South Carolina

Averaged 11.7 PPG, 6.3 RPG, and 2.7 APG this season! pic.twitter.com/h9qyK7dlUz

Land him and an elite scorer at any position and we look tourney bound

Did you see his beard? We'll be off his list for that unfortunately.

3/29/23 7:34pm

Have you you seen the football team lately? Beard card, baby

mjmill

3/29/23 7:36pm

You really think BYU would deny a Muslim a beard card?

SinkingQuffa

3/29/23 7:46pm

Per the BYU rules, no. Beards are fine.

If he's ever yearning for tall, Muslim, Egyptian women — we'll have exactly one

SinkingQuffa

Here she is

We probably need to forward that to his folks, maybe? Can we legally bind him?

We've got some middle eastern women per the Jerusalem center agreement.

Highlights:

Reminds me of Vlade Divac style of play, good passer

3/29/23 11:01pm

What do you figure, 250K NIL. Does BYU have that?

Bullrider

3/29/23 7:40pm

We should call him Wiz

SJS

3/29/23 7:50pm

Like him, but an obvious issue: he's not long or athletic enough to play w Fouss

SinkingQuffa

3/29/23 7:56pm

I agree. He looks too slow to see the same success in the B12

Ethman

Unfortunately highlights generally don't show them running the floor.

SinkingQuffa

Fouss needs shooting not size from another big

puntersarepeople

3/30/23 2:00pm

I concerned about defensive stops.

SinkingQuffa

3/30/23 2:31pm

I think he’s quick enough to be okay

WBB is bringing in an Egyptian post player next fall. Maybe a good precedent?

LeGrandBleu

Coach Whiting also stole a transfer from Charlotte (where he played last season)

SinkingQuffa

3/29/23 8:07pm

How can we compete with that power house of the PAC, SMU? Tough for sure.

3/29/23 8:19pm

Yes!! Was about to post about him yesterday, but didn’t find the time.

Only one team on that list is playing in the best college basketball conference

3/29/23 10:57pm

Didn't someone once say that BYU is one of the best places for Muslim athletes?

Powerbait DPM

Forget who it was, but it was a prominent Black American Muslim fairly recently.
