Cincinnati & NC State have offered 2014 Mass Rivals PF Goodluck Okonoboh.


Top 50 player and one of the best centers in the class. Seems to be an Indiana lean.
 
Now THAT is what I'm talking about. Everyone is going to want this kid, hopefully Mick can pull off an upset.
 
Call me a pessimist, but what skills does he have aside from dunking and blocking shots? And by the way he treats his opponents in that video, I have to question his attitude. Yes, a dominant big man has to be mean, but he borders on unsportsmanlike from what I can see.

I actually like his mean disrespectful attitude the game has become to soft it needs guys that just want to absolutely dominate you I love how he plays!

Pessimist :D

Call me crazy, but dunking and blocking shots isn't good or enough?

So he scores and defends the hoop, those aren't bad things to have in the middle of the court. I'd sure take that.

Last time I checked, Kenyon wasn't a "nice guy" on the court. He intimidated and dominated. Eric Hicks wasn't a "nice guy" on the court. I want players with a mean streak and killer instinct.
 
I prefer his cousin, Badluck Chokeanoba. I hear he misses alot FT's at critical times of the game.
 
Still a long shot but was surprised to see this:

"Okonoboh was reluctant to list schools when asked who is coming at him the hardest. He showed Rivals.com his phone that is being flooded with text messages, and he said his father and coaches are handling his recruitment. He mentioned Kentucky, Duke, Indiana, Cincinnati and Connecticut among those recruiting him. He has not set visits and doesn't seem to be in a rush to end his recruitment."

I honestly think we have a chance to get this guy. Not once have I seen him not metion us in any recruting interviews. He could turn out like a Jermaine Lawerence. We think we have no chance and then we are in his top 5, then top 3 out of no where. And then he ends up committing to us! Not saying it will happen.. but I think it could. And if he wants playing time, he would be the starter from day 1.
