Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Mops just tweeted some European is joining Oregon as a freshman. No name, who could it be?

As a freshman? Weird, last week he said it was going to be a 1 to play 1 guy, great to hear it's a fr. I have no idea who it is, but Matt had said he was a big, so that's a much needed player right now. Even if he's a big stiff, put him in and hope he can clog up the key to stop easy basket's, and give the starters some rest.

I'd take another Christopherson in a heart beat. Doubt we'll be getting another 7'er though ha.

NVM, Mops said hes 6'9.

THe problem with European bigs is that so many of these guys have already layed at the international level, some in the Euro Junior pro leagues.

It is also very hard to track information on any of these guys on the internets.

At 6'9, 230 lb Nikolla Saladi of Serbia may be an interesting prospect...

If this is true, then that probably means Altman will only be taking 2 more players for the 2011 class. He already has Kingma, Barron, and Kuemper so that leaves space for probably one more wing and one more post player.

O-Live is saying the prospect is from Germany, Which brings to mind a name I spotted a couple days ago... Martin Breunig. This kid is listed in the article at 6'9".

"Martin Breunig, an athletic 6-foot-9 wing player from Germany, was the most impressive of the 12 players who competed on Monday."

“Martin is beyond what I thought,” Richert said. “He’s a high-major Division I kid. He is just so skilled and can do so many things with the basketball in his hands."

“He is athletic, he can shoot it, he can pass and he can dribble. He’s not a banger at 6-9, but he is a guy who can play the pick-and-pop game as well as make free throws."

That sort of sounds like the type of big men that would fit in Altman's high post offense.

A bit more from our friends in Corn Valley http://orangeexpress.wordpress.com/2011 ... n-breunig/

Intriguing, eh?

no martin breunig in the directory yet, there is a jennifer

from what we've heard about DA's offensive system, a mobile big man will be good for us.

To top it off, Breunig has a knack for being in position for everything coming off the glass. His feet and size allow him to avoid the box out with great frequency.

Hopefully this kid turns into the next Detlef

Its Martin Seiferth.

Good luck finding information on him, but at least we have a name now.

If this is the same kid he looks about 13. Scroll down on the link. http://translate.googleusercontent.com/ ... 0NmginbsbA

Seriously, it looks like that team ranges from ages 13 to 35.

I wish would have gotten Marie Huth instead... dude looks like a baller.
