He won't ever be as quick as a Daniel Ruffin, but I have seen enough of DSE to say he has good speed, and gets to the basket very well, even with double-teams. He is a good jumper, but not a great jumper like CR, though I have seen him dunk with ease. I am sure he will be a better rebounder than the most guards, and I think he will be able to bring a more physical style when he plays.

Do you think he can be compared overall to Dodie?

[Da Coach]

Yes, very similar, but DSE is more physically developed at this stage that DD was. DD might be a better leaper.

Could Big Mike be shrinking? A basketball player being listed as shorter than he really is may be a first!

If I am shrinking its in "Height only @ 6'2".....and DSE is a lot taller than I expected and he seems to be built very well.....remember 200 lbs next to me would make someone look very skinny! I also noticed that JP went up to 220 and MK went down to 205 pon the roster page! Talked to MK on Sunday and he loves the midwest and loves BU.....and so far is having a ball on the hilltop...he spoke very well and was a pleasure to talk to!

Actually, I talked with DSE this past Sunday. He was an inch taller than Big Mike (I'd say 6'3") and very well built, at least 200 lbs.

Stood and talked to DSE at the Manual/Central Alumni game at Central this summer. He is every bit of 6'2" and probably closer to 6'3", and I was very impressed with his build. He's really bulked up over the past 2+ years. I also witnessed him dunk the ball fairly easily off 1 step, no dribble, almost off straight verticle.

I have no real evidence to back this up--but I kind of envision DSE being a "surprise" player this season. I know Bradley is already deep in the backcourt but I think he will force himself into the rotation.

JL did say that DSE is a pretty good man on man defender. You need to have some speed as well as desire to be a good m2m defender. On him seeing the floor a lot this year, I would be surprise unless there are a few injuries or his ball handling and PG skills are better then we know.

I also broke my non-shooting hand wrist and I can tell you it takes a bit of time for it to come back to 100%. You can play with it but it sometimes feels funky.

Anyone who was at last years' Washington-Limestone game at Washington will know what DSE can do. I've been watching high school basketball for 40 years and that was one of the best performances I've ever seen. DSE was everywhere and Limestone had no answer. This was the loaded, pre-suspension LCHS team to boot. He was everywhere, 27 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocked shots. WOW. Here's the link to the PJS article
