    That is the reason why National writers were tweeting about his commitment to SDSU. Also the reason that Freidel from Tea wasn’t pursued harder.

      That is an answer that is not close to resolution until graduation days arrive. Grad transfers are only hypothetical until graduation day. It would seem likely it is on the horizon since there have been no other ripples.
      Best to remember these are kids and they are doing everything they can to entertain us, be scholars, and all in all be great humans. Jackedforlife

        Through specific weight training you can definitely improve explosiveness. To an extent you either have it or don't, but there is room for training-based changes. Purely speculation here, but with Owen and Baylor being multi-sport athletes, it's very possible they haven't spent an extended period of time in a weight room and have a lot of room to mature physically and blossom in certain areas.

          Otz has seemed to be able to keep recruiting interests pretty close to the vest. I don't think anyone had heard of DJJ before he commited.

            If this doesn’t get you immediately excited for next year you might want to find an entirely new way to spend your free time.

            That kid is just explosive.

              Maybe it's me but I feel like I'm watching John konchar highlights.

                Very good comparison. Maybe even more athletic.

                Wow, are we sure this kid is coming here? I would be very surprised if he doesn't pan out to be a top level player. So glad he chose SDSU.

                  He doesn't look quick, but he glides with that long frame and you can tell he's very basketball intelligent, which makes up for any lack of quickness.

                  Obviously he's a very good passer, but beyond that his step back game is very strong and really impressed me. If you're that long and can step back and consistently knock down shots like that, you've got something there.

                    The step back looks James Harden-esque

                        Exactly. It's very popular right now, so everyone is trying to emulate it, but it's difficult and he seems to do it well.

                          Have we heard anything more about this yet? Looks like he's still not committed.

                            According to Meleeck latest tweet, no decision has been made. Naturally NDSU is in the hunt for this recruit.

                              Strength & Conditioning coaches can do some amazing things these days to help with player development. Focus on sport specific training vs the old fashion Lift Weights & Do Sprints. SDSU's MBB Strength Coach received a ton of credit for Mike's transformation and emergence for the work he did with Mike during his True Freshman year.

                                Just look at Telly as another example of development.
