I have. Several times. He IS a monster. A hell of a load. Watched him bully the Iowa commit Cook. However, he is mostly a below the rim player. Not as below the rim as Ricardo but certainly not an above the rim type. He cannot shoot. Just can't. Period. He is shorter than 6'9. More like 6'7. He would be in big trouble against Kentucky type bigs. 7 footers that can jump. Anyhoot. If Kim is looking for character guys. Um.. I know this guy doesn't fit. Likes to fight and doesn't give a crap about class.
