Now this is a BIGTIME MAJOR GET! BIGTIME COMMIT AND RIM PROTECTOR!
He will also be effective offensively as he gets stronger!
Congrats to Coach Ewing on getting a defensive Center in his and Mutumbo's mold! Congrats to Chris Sodom on an opportunity to be coached by legend in his position.

yep, quite a lot more you can do on D with a legit rim protector on the back line. This is the kind of "project" I like - already a 3-star, and high high ceiing (which is good, otherwise he would be bumping his head a lot).

Love it!! Ewing will turn this kid into a baller. He'll be the best rebounder and defender day one. I also love how easily he cleans up misses on the offensive glass.

Sodom is still a project with great upside. I know that the former New Mexico coaching staff was very high on his potential and saw him as contributing at least in a reserve role on defense immediately. UNLV wanted him too but he was not released from his LOI to play elsewhere in the Mountain West. It will be interesting to watch Ewing's development approach for his posts.

He needs a lot of weight room work but seems like he already knows that. He couldn't have picked a better mentor, from multiple perspectives.

Was thinking one day that phrase would be brought up. Just glad it wasn't me.

I support this signing and am all on the Sodim bandwagon. Guess that makes me a Sodom-ite alright.
