Thank you, now, he is a Vol

 

[johnfnkelly]

Reminds me of Kevin porter, or a young James harden without the play-making. If Mashack doesn’t take the leap he’s expected to on offense I could see DJ taking his role pretty quickly.

Is he a Vol?

Is he a Vol?

Seems to be heading that direction. Announcing Friday.

Branham Crystall Balled him to us

You don't need Branham, I told you this after his exit interview, from his visit.

The Dog bringing the swagger.

So hard to tell from HS clips, but he actually reminds me a bit of Jordan Bowden.

Poster on another site made that same comp, but maybe a little bit taller and with a mean streak.

I would certainly take a Bowden 2.0.

This is what I noticed a couple of days ago. I watched both players films side by side and they are very similar.

Awesome video!

He would be a solid pickup and Tennessee will make inroads into recruiting up north in a new state.

Similar physical profile as bowden but DJ has a way higher ceiling. Offensively he’s already nearly the same level Bowden was as a senior.

But can he nail the elbow jumper?

 

[Lefteye]

I mean no disrespect at all to JB but Jefferson’s film showed a lot more overall skill set. Imo First thing that jumped out was his ability to create space. Then his quickness off the floor. JB had nice hops but they weren’t as quick, compared to Jefferson’s. Again jmo

Plus he’s a southpaw, must get…

He shoots left, but he seems to almost always finish with his right. It's kind of strange, looks to be right hand dominant when dribbling as well.

Might just be good fundamentals, I was always taught to finish lay-ups with the same hand on the side of the rim I was on and to jump off the opposite foot. Of course, there was no way in hell, I could shoot left handed more than 3 feet from the rim

 

[Willy14]

Anyone know what time he commits tomorrow?

247 updated their ranking and now have him Top 75, On3 has him Top 50, great late pickup.
