eagle88 Posted June 7, 2022 Author Share Posted June 7, 2022 I could be wrong but I really think we will be considerably better on defense next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle88 Posted June 7, 2022 Author Share Posted June 7, 2022 Here is a picture of my 2 oldest grandsons Jaxon and Brock and their friend Riggs. The other guy is ORU’s newest addition to the coaching staff Mike Herrington! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Williams will be the best defensive player on the team next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keenan Henderson Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Can you get a picture of Big Maple (Lufile) and Plastic Man (Connor) standing side by side? That would be interesting. Thanks for the pictures eagle88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle88 Posted June 7, 2022 Author Share Posted June 7, 2022 You’re welcome. I would get you that picture but Big Maple is up in Canada visiting his family. When he gets back I will work on getting you one! Big Maple told me a few weeks ago Connor is a handful on defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keenan Henderson Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 When Connor was at Arkansas they often did some interesting photo shoots with him. They put Connor with a guy named Chris Lykes, who is only 5'7, which is a throwback to the old picture with Mogus Boges (5'3) and Manute Bol (7'7)! Coach Muss also took a picture with Connor next to a height chart. It seems that Connor was close to 7'5 with his shoes on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t look closely enough at that pic to notice DJ in the line up. That’s a lot of height that Coach can stash on the bench! (I know it’s time to let this go for awhile) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle88 Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 Bo comes to Connor’s waist and McBride not even to his shoulder! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Titan Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I would venture that Connor has posed for 10,000 or more photos in his short life; it’s great that he appears very accommodating. Not easy being an involuntary celebrity; particularly in this age of camera phones and social media. The cliche comments must become tedious. I’m reminded of the t-shirt that former ORU 7-footer John Hollinden wore back in the day: The front said “YES I PLAY BASKETBALL” The back said “THE WEATHER UP HERE IS JUST FINE” 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle88 Posted June 9, 2022 Author Share Posted June 9, 2022 I talked with Patrick yesterday and he told me he played with one of Eli Lufile’s brothers on the Congo National team. Patrick is very confident and said his 2 big strengths are shooting the 3 and yes OT defense which we all know is much needed. This video shows Patrick teaching Cam a technique on how not to get the ball knocked out of his hand. On my final video take Cam was starting to get it!
