Oh, I didn't understand the question. I change my answer to:
Hughes. :block:
-
pretty much every juco altman recruited. not so frequent since.
-
Amazing people are still coming around on this.
Update: Samuels is also incredibly athletic. Just in case there was still some debate and people were slow to come around.
-
Massey. :skillz:
Not even close.

first player that comes to mind is belvis. same body type, a bit different type of player. sutton much more upside. both athletic as hell.

Agree. It's just been a while. And it's not like he's one of the best athletes in the conference or anything either.
-
Sutton is a freak athlete. Love it.
More athletic than Bill?

If you're talking just plain freak athleticism, I'd put Sutton up there with anyone in the conference. Dude looks like a freaking gazelle out there. Not to say he's one of the best basketball players though.

He also blew out his knee or something.

We were all talking about it early last season while you were hanging out with your BFF Ron Prince :dunno:

sutton is one of those super athletic d00ds that cant shoot 10 feet out.
uk has a hall of fame for guys like that.

WAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY.....Sutton is a freak.

bill was just lazy. and could stroke a 3.

QFT.
But we only got Noland as a JR/SR. Sutton has a ton more upside. Belvis was a little thicker and more of a bruiser, but the last comparable athlete that I remember in purple. Of course a lot get blocked out from the "unathletic era" of K-State basketball.
-
samuels is damn near close to sutton on the freak level
-
Gotta admit, almost getting your own rebound in air after missing a breakaway dunk is pretty impressive.
-

No way. He's a good athlete but he doesn't have the freak athleticism that Sutton has.
-
liar.
both hustle. steal. dunk and cant shoot.
-
both hustle. steal. dunk and cant shoot.
samuels isn't close to sutton as an athlete. being athletic is more than just jumping. sutton has everything. samuels just jumps well.
-
And Samuels is all gangly and what not. Sutton just looks like an athlete, Samuels looks... tall.

sutton does NOT have a consistent jumper

I think he meant athletically... like, Sutton has great body control etc.
-
oh
-
Isn't "athletic" relative to height? I mean at 6-8 it will look dif than 6-4. Its not like Samuels is Joe Leonard.

I don't think I would use that phrase to decribe JamSam. His body can do some amazing things, but he does seem to be slightly out of control at all times. He's like a new born deer, still trying to get used to his legs.

everything = lateral movement, quick first step, strength, jumping, top speed, hit for power, etc.
-
Sutton is the most flexible/fluid human being I've ever seen.
Samuels for his size is basically as good as they get.
And yes, it is more than jumping.

You don't have to have great body control to be a great athlete.
Lots of freak athletes are actually lacking in that area.
It's a bonus for Sutton.
But at the same time, Samuels is not uncoordinated, which is somewhat implied by him being "out of control".
-
Cunningham. Hardest worker on a hardworking Altman team. Micky Ds all-american athleticism.
-
Sutton is a'ight. in practice he would be really athletic. but come game time, he would just lay down.
i just talked to him before some florida somethin' game and he said he feels more comfortable not bein in anyones shadow an all.
he will be a different playa this year. wait an see.

sutton looking to have a huge game against the neckclones he's due. wonder if he'll be tasked w/ trying to stop brackins.

Dude's flexible.

Dude's flexible.
definitely fuels the imagination.
-
Pretty poor demonstration of flexibility. PW is even terrible at being PW.
-
isn't that the one that he got T'd up for?
-
Dave Hoskins... Dude was a 6'4 brick who played the four damn well. He was built and never got tired - even under Huggins who was known for his destructive practices.
He may not of had the athletic prowess of Sutton, but his basketball abilities (especially on the offensive end) and work ethic put him in the conversation...
-
Jamar had a tremendously athletic play tonight.
1. He intercepted the pass on the wing.
2. He took it coast to coast with the dribble.
3. He weaved around the ISU defender for an up and under layup.
My reaction was first "Holy Chit, who was that" Then I saw it was JamSam. The next thing I said was, "Samuels is a freak." :kstatriot:
-
he's 6'7". shouldn't he be making those plays?
-
Good to see Sutton make some offensive moves today in the half court. Good to see.

Sutton vs. A&M was funny to watch.
Sometimes he's just capable of playing like a turd......a large, muscle filled, high flying, turd.
