But he's slow, uncoordinated and can't shoot from beyond 5 feet.

They had an article about this kid a couple of weeks back in the Newark Star Ledger. He's had a lot of injuries so this is the first season that he's actually getting real playing time. Interesting sidenote: He never got his drivers license because no car is big enough for him to drive.

I wonder if he will have a lot of heart problems down the road due to his size.

The main problem when you grow that big is usually a pituitary gland problem, in the article I read he says he gets it checked regularly. The real problems that you have are lots of joint problems.

Also I saw on ESPN last night that College Gameday is doing a special on him if anyone is interested.
