I've been checking twitter and this page frantically hoping to see some news on Otchere. At what point do he's passing on SBU and going elsewhere?

Can't find much regarding his current recruiting, but I would to see Boals and co. land Nick Alikakos, a former Navy commit doing a post grad year at the hill school. Boals, Weber, and Goldstein are all following him on twitter so i assume we're involved. Looks like a solid stretch four that can give the team some size and stretch the floor. Get him and Otchere and we're cooking with gas for 18-19!

Totally overlooked this post. Whoa that kid looks good. Only watched A minute of film and his offensive skill set jumps out immediately. He's a decent athlete, with mobility. Has court vision with size. Ability to put it on the deck a little and hit 3's

And he works out with Ochefu. https://twitter.com/ballbeyond/status/974026047309144064?s=21

I like him less than you guys do but I think he’d be a solid add. Love the energy and handle for a big guy. However, I worry about the jumper with the awkward release, and I didn’t see much in that video with his back to the basket (or at all defensively).

Him working out with Ochefu should be a positive. I'm not that bothered by his awkward release due to his size and ability to create space with his handle. On spot up shots his release would be even less of an issue because he wouldn't be guarded when its passed out to him.
I like the series of moves Ochefu put together in that workout. They all look fluid also. Kid is going to be really effective next season.

Per Sean Bock ...

6-foot-11 Garden City CC (KS) center Jeffrey Otchere has committed to Stony Brook, a source told ZagsBlog.

Otchere chose the Seawolves over New Mexico State, Washington State, Santa Clara, and Iona. Can play right away and has 3 years left of eligibility.

 For a refresher ...



Trying not to anoint him already. Minutes were fairly limited in juco, certainly for a reason other than “he had guys in front of him.”

game changer.  we can compete with vermont with guys like him, christie, and ochefu in the paint.

does that leave one more scholarship (almonacy's)?  let's go get a 2.

I’d love a 3/4 who you can stick in the corner to knock down threes, but can also get on the glass. Petras, Ty and Saintel all collected their fair share, so we have to fortify that, particularly with how raw our front line will be. The Navy kid seems to fit the mold.

If this sticks, congrats to Jeff Boals (and staff) for getting the job done!

VC still has it as a "verbal commit" as of this post's timestamp.
