2010 BU Recruit- Michael Ocherobia

BUfan14 said:
Thanks for the info DC! I haven't been counting on JW since the whole Iowa St. debacle, but I just wish it would be for sure 100% finished so I can move on from him.

I wouldn't be all that disappointed if we did just hold the scholie if nothing great comes around, and JL feels next years class is better. The fear I have with doing that though, is as Shaunguth pointed out, we lose our best three 3-point shooters next year. We don't have what I would call a pure shooter unless JE can become that the following year. I think we need to pair a shooter like Henderson with the slashing guards like DSE, JE, WL, and DS. Shooters with slashers are a great combo that opens the floor more for both types. If we don't get a guy this year, we would either have to get a JUCO or freshman shooter to step right in the following year, and I don't really want to go that route. You can't live without 3 shooters in college basketball.

So what Shaunguth said would be my ideal get too for the last scholie, now if that shooter happened to be 6'4-6'8 and athletic like amckillip wants that would be a perfect world. But we need a 3 shooter for the following year first IMO. That is why JW would have been perfect here as an athletic tall guy who can shoot.....Oh well.

I agree, we need a shooter. Actually if we could a great 6'3'' Guard that can nail the three and can defend we would be sitting really well. Get me a JC clone!

I'd take me a JC clone anyday! 6'5, decent defender, nails the 3. Hopefully AW can step up the way JC did his Senior year this upcoming year.

Speaking of shooters, any news on what Tyler Les will do? Is he going DIII or still considering Bradley?

I know some will disagree with me, but the kid can shoot that's for sure. He could redshirt this year, you know he would work hard and not be a problem kid, he could develop for a couple years, and could possibly become that type of shooter we are looking for in a couple years. He is 6'2, and we would get him for free. Like I said some might disagree, but I think he'd be a great get. It's a no lose situation for Bradley, what's not to like?

I didn't say DC banged inside, I said he had a great body for a big man. No one really knows how much MO 'bangs' inside, so what your point here?

If we can get 18 mpg, someone who can play D against the other bigs, get his fair share of rebounds and command attention inside then I'll be completely satisfied. I also hope he is not shy about commanding the paint.

I know this may not be completely accurate, but it's one of the only reports I've seen. We can only hope this is an accurate description!

From ESPN......

February, 2010: Ocherobia has a phenomenal, college ready body with long arms, wide shoulders, great muscle mass, and definition in both his upper and lower body. He is exceptionally strong and equally physical. He loves to bang inside the paint and is consequently a very good post defender.

I agree let the last ride roll over. I believe Harris will be on campus next year along with Stewart. We lose SM and AW. If Harris and Stewart get those two rides the last one would be the roll over. It is not manditory to roll it over but I think it is only used on an impact transfer if it is used on this recruiting class.

Did DD learn how to get a 6th year from SS to play in 11/12 ;)

If this is accurate, he is a great find and welcome aboard MO. We haven't had a banger inside since Matt Salley. Took me awhile to appreciate him, but the Braves could have used him the last couple years.
 
My top choice for last spot

My top choice for last spot

I have no idea if we are recruiting him (Patrik Auda). I just see he is highly rated. He is big, but also supposed to be a good shooter out to three point line. I haven't seen that he committed anywhere else yet. He is called a high major prospect. Sounds a little like JW but more inside oriented and not called a good ball handler. I have been watching hoping our name would be linked with him also.

Good news for the Braves!

Actually there has been a string of good news for BU MBB post 2009-10 let down, with a new AD who seems BB friendly, an experienced asst coach, possibility of another asst coach who could really help recruiting, DS, WL, and now MO.

At 20 yrs old, with 4 yrs of eligibility, BU is going BYU with Mo (and SH)! BU will end up with a "man" in the middle when MO shows and stays till graduation.

No pressure on MO to produce in yr one, recall even POB needed a season and a half to grow into the position.

Welcome to BU MO, we welcome you with (slightly shorter) open arms...

So as not to get confused with ex coach Mo and new recruit MO, may need to come up with a nickname for MO.... perhaps the "Island Intimidator"...

BU should be picky and patient with its last scholly and only use it if they can find a shooter who can create his own shot or a big C/F who could be special in 2011 and beyond.
 
I heard a member of the board say he had comitted. I haven't seen it in print or online anywhere else. Although I assume it is true.
 
If I counted right the CBA school mens team has 8 kids that are 6 foot 8 inches or taller with three at 7 feet or taller. Could this turn into a solid pipeline for future BU big men?

Lets hope so.

He Definitely sounds interesting to me...

"Patrik Auda (6′9, Czech Republic) impressed us the most and was selected to the All-Tournament Team, averaging over 17 points and nine rebounds. Auda has a versatile game and will likely be a swingman in college."
