He has grown a couple of inches since BYU first started recruiting him. He's a 6-8 big PF with both athleticism and strength. This is the kind of player BYU just doesn't get. He's AA and not LDS. Grew up in Utah and has a lot of LDS friends. Utah dropped the ball in a big way with this guy, which also makes me happy. He would have been a natural for them. He was on their radar but they just moved too slowly while Rose won him over. It will be a lot different type of team next year with Mika, Dastrup, Childs and Davis playing as our frontcourt.

This teams needs an athleticism upgrade in the worst way. The Utah game was evidence of that.
