    Not too many big men in the college game nowadays with the NBA stealing most of the good talent early.

    Just stating that the college game is diluted of talent. Sure two months ago one Publication had him ranked #1 at his spot. I am sure there may be many others that have him ranked #1 as well. I am just saying let him play a few games before you have him as the Savior for your program and bring him in on arguments like it's a fact.

    Although I do understand your enthusiasm since you haven't had too many great products in the past 50 years, can they all be counted on one hand? Let him play a game or two against better competition first!

    I don't recall UNC recruiting him, but if it weren't for his questionable ability to qualify we would have. You guys crack me up, you act as though we were trying to get him and you beat us out or something. :rolleyes:

    fever, man you really know how to tee yourself up. First, those rankings are of high school players. That talent is NOT deluted, so to be #1 is huge. Your argument is as if he is the #1 center in college where the big man talent IS is in fact deluted. Therefore, if the big man talent is college is deluted, someone who is #1 out of high school should kill it in college. You talked yourself in a cirlce here without using any logic. :rolleyes:

    and no, nobody claimed we beat UNC to get him. Matt Doh point blank said they did not recruit him as I mentioned above.

    Us being excited about this guy is justified, I guess no UNC fans were drooling over Ray Felton a year ago were they? :rolleyes:

    Of that list, how many were first team All American? How many were anything more than journeymen in the NBA?

    I can think of only one - Cornbread.

    You wanna go head to head? Didn't think so.

    I got no idea whether Iti will be great or not - and I really don't care. More power to y'all for getting the number 1 center as ranked by espn.

    boyz, forgive uncfeverblister, the 8-20 season still has him is a daze not to mention that 1-10 football team.

    Tf, I am proud of you, it appears you have completely shed that UNC background you were raised in. :)

    Easy there metro, I don't recall saying high school ball is diluted. The only reason I brought up the whole college thing is because you guys are acting like he is the shit or something and he hasn't even played a game. I mean hell uncctf already has him as one of your great players list???

    Doh is a joke, why do you think he was fired??? metro, I just like to give you a ton of shit, because you try to start little flames so much.

    Sure we were drooling over Felton, dude we had that one bad year and aren't used to bad shit like you guys are. I don't think we had him in our greatest players list until at least after his first game. :rolleyes:
