What makes me angry is that he played my school twice (same league) and both times he has played like you know what by comparison to his other games. I was also looking forward to watching him play Frease, but since Frease got hurt so I opted out of that one. I just won't watch any of the OSU bball games with him playing, b/c he will play bad then :biggrin:

By Michael Beaven

Special to the Beacon Journal

CANTON - A one-man show can only go so far.
Even one of the best high school players in the country needs help from teammates.
GlenOak senior Kosta Koufos played the leading role and received the necessary assistance Friday night at the Canton Memorial Fieldhouse.
GlenOak senior guard Mark Quinn and freshman guard Storm Sanders played supporting roles under Koufos' lead in a Golden Eagles 56-55 overtime win over host Canton McKinley in the Federal League before an estimated crowd of 4,000.

PLAIN TWP. Enough with the dunks and blocks.
Saturday night, Kosta Koufos showed his game might be limitless on a basketball court.
Ohio high school basketball?s top low-post presence morphed himself into the state?s tallest point guard ? all 7-foot-2 of him running the GlenOak offense a couple of times during a 65-52 win over visiting Detroit Country Day. ?A kid like him, you can?t limit,? GlenOak head coach Jack Greynolds Jr. said.

The numbers and the highlight videos don't lie. Kosta is probably the most athletically impressive 7-foot recruit I've ever seen. He would be a DI guard if he was 6'5". Since he's 7'2", what more is there to say? He's not a rebounder like Kevin Love, or a defensive menace like Oden, but the fluidity, body control, and ball skills are unparalleled.

thats what Ive been thinking. He has a total game like nowitski but, Kosta is more athletic . He reminds me of Gasol as an athlete and kowitski as an complete player.

I heard Pitino kept saying hes another nowitski , so all those clowns on TV are saying the same stuff now. Hes a combo of those 2 and I'M REALLY SURPRIZED no one has talked about doing a triple double at/against canton mckinley there. I know a bunch of mckinley fans and I've been emailing pictures of KOSTA. That alone will go down with the Lebron games stories around akron/canton for life.

I may be wrong about this, but isn't there some rule about only being able to play in two post-season all-star games or something that limits how many all-star games you can play in? If there is he may not even be eligible to play in the McDonald's game if he's already commited to play in other games.
