I don’t have high expectations, but he has a pretty good highlight tape. I can’t address the level of competition, but from my perspective, he looks somewhat athletic, can dunk easily, willing to drive to the basket and has a decent drop step shot. Who knows how he will fare, but hopefully he’s more than the Icelandic guy we had.

Most likely only the 2nd PSU alum to be an NBA head coach after Bob Weiss.

Wonder if he's related to Andrew Ott.

I’m struggling finding any type of info on him…did he do anything for the hoops program in college (or the Athletic Dept in general)? I’d guess we’ll see something in The Penn Stater or something like that either way a profile in the next year.

Looks like a portal addition ... he was at Xavier as a freshman, and University of Illinois-Chicago as a soph.

Again, I like adding EURO players. Hopefully he adds depth to the front line giving minutes that impact and allows Freshman Hauser to be ne brought along a little slower to gain weight/strength.

That should be a pretty impactful addition. Only thing I don’t love is that both seasons, his minutes dropped down the stretch. But he’s better than I would have expected to get at this point.

I wonder what he will be paid? Japan is very expensive.

Maybe an offer of a Million Yen excited him?

Reminder me of my honeymoon and playing blackjack in the Dominican Republic with US $. Another girl was playing with Dominican Pesos and betting like 1k/hand. Thought she was a high roller until we checked and saw that it was like $8.
