Oden

For those of you who don't normally follow College Basketball... meet Greg Oden. If your a huge Buckeye football fan, maybe this year you'll be interested in the Basketball Buckeyes thanks to this Seven Foot 18 year old kid from Indianapolis. People are putting him in the Bill Russell, Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Patrick Ewing category as a once in lifetime center.

Check out this quote from an ESPN College basketball players to watch post.

"Jay Bilas' take: By March, it will be clear to everyone that Oden is the best big man in college since Tim Duncan, and he will have more articles written about him than Baby Suri. Oden will not be quite as polished or as skilled as Duncan was, but he has the chance to be just as dominant. Oden will still be a freshman in a league that punishes youth, but he will be hitting his stride in the spring after getting back from his early-season wrist injury.Jay Bilas' take: By March, it will be clear to everyone that Oden is the best big man in college since Tim Duncan, and he will have more articles written about him than Baby Suri.

He won't be able to play for the first part of the season due to a wrist injury which was surgically repaired a while back. Anyway, check out this YouTube video, apparently he's been on the honor role every semester throughout his high school career and is a "soft-spoken guy" which according to his NBA draft profile can be seen a weakness.
