If I remember correctly, we got him right after Trent left and he was a very highly rated recruit. Maybe even the highest rated guy we've gotten in the last 20 years or so. He never quite lived up to the hype, but he was still my favorite player growing up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a28gJdXpSNg Last Edited: 5/27/2013 1:09:24 PM by Paul Graham Back to Top Jeff McKinney Moderator Member Since: 11/12/2004 Post Count: 6,155 Status: Offline     RE: Flenorl Flashback    Posted: 5/27/2013 5:18:59 PM  From what I've heard about our new JUCO player Maurice Ndour, I think his physical build is similar to Flenorl's.

Could you imagine if he was on last year's team? That was really what we were missing...a dominant force down low.

But still, he had some great explosiveness and athleticism. Never quite lived up the hype - but I'd take him any day.

All of them were highly regarded recruits but it ended up leading to the worst season in Ohio history (97-98 I think). Its all made much more disappointing given that they all had such awesome names and were good dunkers. I blame Adell, that dude was trouble.

I would be curious about his RPG and FG shooting pct.

Here are some of his stats: http://statsheet.com/mcb/players/player/ohio/diante-flenorl Here is his Facebook page, complete with a photo of him dunking as a Bobcat: https://www.facebook.com/diante.flenorl It seems he last played pro ball in 2004 in Switzerland.

I grouped them together because they were all highly rated (I realize Fakhir was from Cleveland)...Reed was brought in (I believe) as a way of getting Flenorl to Athens.  Also, its funny to see the influence of the Fab 5 during that era. In that state finals game at the end of that video, all of those dudes have bald heads :) Last Edited: 5/29/2013 12:56:12 AM by Paul Graham Back to Top SouthernCat General User Member Since: 1/3/2005 Post Count: 166 Status: Offline     RE: Flenorl Flashback    Posted: 5/29/2013 6:16:03 AM  Was Adell our only prop 48 signing?
