Were you a season ticket holder last year? Did you see this guy play at all? He looks like he can barely run, has minimal basketball moves and IQ and just isn't very productive. Surprisingly, he does get pushed around or he is very, very quick to foul. I had high, high hopes for him 2 seasons ago anxiously awaiting the following season to see this 7'3 behemoth. Then I saw him play the following year as a RFr...
I hope he continues to develop as a player as he has not been playing the game long. However, this is only Egbunu's 4th year playing organized basketball and look at him. Not all can be all-star athletes like him though.
Regarding the part about you wanting OMG to come in instead of Perry. I seriously hope you mean that you would rather see Egbunu and Perry already out there AND THEN have OMG come in because to not ask Perry to come in for Egbunu otherwise is just plain crazy. That kid is just as talented and he has so far to go too. He's got some weight to lose and a little bulking up to do. He can't run up and down the floor like Egbunu can yet, but I believe he can be just as talented.
OMG is a fan favorite and is cheered every time he steps on the court. This isn't because he's some great player. I think it's more that it's so cool that we have a GIANT on our team and we want to see this big guy ball out. He's made a play here and there, but the bad seriously outweighs the good on this one. I really like the guy, he just cannot play the game. We can't even do a simple feed down low and a layup or slamma jamma with him.
I did like how we tried to use him as a wall for the last inbound pass against FGCU. However, that didn't turn out so well, but we still pulled off the W due to the .3 sec rule.
