Clearly things can change. I was speaking about right now. And the reality is that he is not a top 3 player in the big 10 right now.



:lol: Oh, okay.


Way to skip over the point.

He's 6th in scoring and 2nd in rebounding so he's certainly pretty close if he isn't.

Cool. He is top 10 in the big 10....not top 3 in the entire country

You said Big Ten. He's probably top 5 in the Big Ten right now.

The analysts were talking about him being 2nd-team All-American last night. Even I think that's optimistic but he's impressive.

In all seriousness, have you watched the guy play?

Have you even been following along? My point was to JORR who claimed he was top 3 in country. I disagreed and said he wasnt top 3 in the big 10.

Top 5 in big 10...maybe. i have watched. He is good.

I have. That's why I quoted your point, not JORR's.

JORR's crazy. Everyone knows that.

We'll see at the end of the season how many guys both of you think are better than Kofi. I doubt RFDC will be cheerleading the 5'10" midgets in the Big Ten that he now thinks are better than the big guy.

I don't doubt for a second he is a first round pick right now, maybe even top 15. Look how many 7 foot tall European myths get picked in the back half of the first round. Here is a 7 foot guy showing all the athleticism you need to play inside as well as a jumper out to 15 feet in a major college conference. GM would be drooling projecting what he could be. One more year in college and he is a top 5.

I always get accused of being Chief Illinimac but I can't see him not getting picked in the top 10 this year. Barring some kind of setback at the rate he's already developing, it's easy to see he could have a mid-range 15-18 foot game with more practice and he's still developing setting a good base in the post but those are all things that can be taught.

The skills are clearly there and there just aren't guys that size anymore with that kind of athleticism. The guy is 295. Somebody call Matt Nagy. He's almost too old-school '80s/'90s low-post guy.

You've got action.

Who is it you think is better than him in the Big Ten? The two best guys are like 5'10".

Glad we have a bet. $50 on 1st team all American.

Also glad we agree that 2 guards in the Big 10 are better than Kofi. But there are also guys like Wesson, Stevens, Tillman, Smith, Teske. There are quite a few good players in the Big 10.

I know you didn't watch the game the other night if you're referencing Teske. Kofi made him look like a small child.

I did watch game. Kofi did outplay him. Take him off list if you like. But i dont base opinions on one game.

Kofi missed his double-double by 1 rebound because the Illini were too good to keep him in the game.

This is why I took a flyer on the bet with RFDC. I realize how tough it is to make first team All-America. And I know that these days the A-A team isn't broken down by positions the way it once was. But players like Kofi are really rare these days. And he's obviously going to have some real numbers. The A-A team deserves a real center now that one has arrived! I think I have a shot to win this one.

Maybe. I know it's really a bad bet, but as you said, there really aren't guys playing like this kid. We'll see. By the end of the season, I'm guessing he's super high profile.

Sorry, BRick...Spaulding.

Griffin coming into his own might take this team to a new level. Ayo, Kofi, Griffin, Trent Frazier is a nice player. Team has talent.
