Transfer Sam Dunkum, 7 footer (Walk-On Commit)

Transfer from Lafayette College who will walk on starting in January. He's listed at 6'10", 215 but there's reports if you Google him that seem to indicate he's maybe grown to 7'0"? Curious to see what he's listed at here once he arrives.

You can't simulate height so if nothing else, he's quite an asset to have on the scout team and as a player to practice against. And if he turns out to be a diamond in the rough, even better. Seven footers aren't easy to come by.

:Listed as injured 2015-16. 4 years left I assume. Can he be a threat to break Gibb's record?

How so? Lafayette is a D1 school.

In that case, I'm surprised he isn't continuing on down I-80 to Lincoln where he could probably start at center next week.

I don't think that is correct. 2nd sem next year I would think.

sounds like he won't be eligible next semester.

Didnt see his name on the roster nor box scores for Lafayette.
