New WSU center Valentine Izundu can basically touch the top of a backboard

Have the Cougs ever had a guy like this?

If you don't pay close attention to WSU basketball, you probably weren't aware that Ernie Kent picked up a transfer from Houston named Valentine Izundu in his first summer as coach. The move didn't come with a lot of fanfare -- Izundu was a deep reserve as a freshman before only playing in four games as a sophomore and was seen as a bit of a project for Kent.

You might want to learn his name.

I'm not sure that "wow" goes far enough to describe what's in that video.
