I'm not a betting man, but I think this could be one of the college boys coming back to play for us. Jeromie Hill possibly if Crossy goes to the Kings?

Mel, please avoid all-caps in the future, thanks. If an asteroid hits the planet, then you have my permission for an all-caps topic title. ;)

The Truth gets it and is permitted to keep posting on Hoops! ;)
First NBL signing in a while that was kept very quiet and no one even mentioned his name until the day it was announced!
A quick YouTube search came up with a pretty recent highlight clip http://youtu.be/SdBeZyKjrT8

Very underrated player.. This mixed with the other few new signings (yet to be announced), the Taipans will become the new bandwagon team!

What's the standard like in his league?
Looks like a handy shooter. Got good height too.
What would we expect from him? Gynes or Bose?

NAIA is hard to judge against NCAA.Maybe middle of D2 for the top teams but very hard to judge as its school by school proposition.

So NAIA is school comp not College? So he might only be a development player possibly? or is he officially signed on the main list?
NAIA is a college competition.
Similar standard to NCAA Div 2 overall, but the top teams would compete around the middle mark if in NCAA D1.
Looking back a few years through Gliddon's colleges games, they played against UCLA and lost by only 1 point along with some wins and close losses to NCAA D1 schools
