You're trying to be funny, right 'Snap?

No, the kid is not skinny. Far from it. He is a big time hoss.

I still don't know how to spell his name. I don't know the proper pronunciation, either.
There are three rules that I live by, never get less than 12 hours sleep, never gamble with a guy who has the same first name as a city and never get involved with a chick with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Stick to that and everything else is gravy!

Does the que at the end of his name make a "K" sound or is it more like a "Q" sound like barbecue? It could be more of a "key" sound, too.

Outside of UNI's roster, I haven't had this much trouble figuring out how to sound out a player's name since Wichita State recruited Gal Mekel.

Got a new one for you in walk-on Jarod Syndergaard. Though another walk-on has a better name in James Humpal.

I believe it is "Etch-in-eek-ay."

And this year the Jays also have "Jaw-hands" Manigat.

Why do you think UNI has put so much emphasis on the "team" concept the past few years? We don't really buy that stuff, we're just lazy and don't want to learn to spell our own players names! :D

I don't have his stats from rutgers, but I thought I read that FT shooting was an issue for him. Is that right?

I was joking guys. He looks to be a good addition for Creighton, although the Jays are not anywhere even remotely close to being a favorite team of mine.
