Chimezie Metu Commits To USC

USC basketball received a commitment from 6-9 junior forward Chimezie Metu of Lawndale. He is currently ranked No. 46 in the nation by Rivals.com for the Class of 2015. Interestingly, neither Arizona nor UCLA offered him a scholarship. He was offered by UConn.

      • Luckily KD wasn’t developed by Mr. Enfield, who coaches his Basketball teams according to the SUCCessful Brick/Clank method.

        • Well, we’ll see. I don’t think anyone is overwhelmed with optimism for the basketball program just yet. But AE is bringing in better players and he likes to have the long athletic athletes for his system. Metu seems like a perfect fit. Give him a few years and we’ll see how it turns out.

          • I agree…. it always amuses me how quickly some people will judge a head coach after just one year, and AE is using players that he did not recruit…..once his handpicked recruits have filled the roster, only then can his coaching skills be judged …..what Calipari does with pure freshman at Kentucky is truly amazing, but certainly not the norm….

  1. According to Reign of Troy, “The Nigerian-born forward stands tall at 6’9, 210 pounds…”

  2. what is up with the approval by Inside USC. Did the bruin trolls get their feelings hurt becaue people have put “f” infront of ucla too much?

  3. I guess because Arizona and Westwood Community College haven’t offered a scholly it means he’s no good right?

    How about this analogy. Scooter got a job offer from the DN but not the LAT. Must mean he is terrible right? I wish I had a little poll I could put up here…

    • No worries, a gang of Bruin trolls with their little “polls” will be arriving in just a moment.

  4. 10, you seem to be the only person saying he isn’t good, just because Metu wasn’t offered by AZ and UCLA. I’ve never seen Metu play, so I can’t comment on his game. Generally 10, tall africans are pretty slim.

    • Such as the late Manute Bol?………Dikembe Mutombo and Hakeem Olajuwon had a little more meat on their bones……

      • SUCC, Idi Amin was 6’3 and pretty meaty.

        “generally, tall Africans are pretty slim”

        You been hanging out with your buddy Donny Sterling?

        • By SUCC’s “logic”, are short Africans generally pretty chunky?

          • Perhaps..I mean, that was how the Belgians differentiated between Hutu and Tutsi in Rwanda, and that one turned out a little less that desired….

          • Bleauz, I think it’s fair to say: Short Africans are smaller than tall Africans. But just to be safe blueuz, Google: Small vs Tall and double check the accuracy of my statement.

          • Wow!…. you were right, old man….when I Googled that, a picture of YOU showed up under “small”… and it wasn’t pretty!…..thank goodness I blocked any pop ups from showing up on my screen……

        • All Africans live in Africa
          Idi Amin is African
          Idi Amin is all Africans
          Conclusion: TF is a mental pigmy.
