I was ready to type "Why the hell is he playing JV" when I spotted that it is some sort of eligibility issue from transferring. Should be interesting to see how big he gets. I went to high school with a friend who was 7 ft tall our freshman year and was about 7'6 by the time we graduated. I assume since Manute was 7'7 that Bol Bol is not nearly done growing.

Great article about Bol Bol in the kansas city start last Sunday too. Sounds like he has some motivation issues... but he's only 14, so that's not exactly a surprise.

Dang, he is even skinnier than his dad was...and this is saying a lot. I was always afraid that Manute's bones would snap when he played in the NBA, but he was surprisingly durable.
He should be joining the varsity any time now, and I will try to catch a game or two. My daughter graduated from Miege and my grandson is also considering it since he starts HS in August.
