Senior. He played one year for Fordham (2014-15), then two years at DII Adelphi. So he'll spend one year at CU. Perfect stop-gap player to buy time for Epperson.
Not a spectacular or flashy signing by any means, but he's a big dude at 6'10" and 240 that seems to be aggressive on the glass. If nothing else, he'll give the Jays a big body and five fouls a game to defend other Big East posts with.
The big question is can he defend without fouling, because his foot speed isn't great. If he can, maybe he can get the Jays four or five boards a game -- he was a good rebounder at the DII level and that's a skill that translates better to high-level DI hoops better than most. Positioning and want-to are half the battle on the glass, and he's not going to be pushed around with his beefy frame.
