He's got an NBA game. He's gonna be a match-up nightmare for opposing big men.

Such sweet touch on his mid-range.  It's going to be fun to watch him play.

He was active all over the floor. Altered shots on defense, hit some 3's, scored in the paint and is mobile enough to run the floor and beat big guys off the dribble.

We got a good one. Easily going to be one of the best in the MAC.

He will only get better and more comfortable with time as he adjusts to D-1 ball too which is a scary thought. But a solid win over a team picked 3rd in the MVC.  A very nice bobcat debut.

He just put up 20 against UNI. Imagine how much he'll put up against MAC schools

Anyone else see any similarities between N'Dour and former Miami great Devin Davis...and I'm not just talking dreadlocks. Both play very long and have energy that jumps out of the building. The type of energy that annoys opposing teams and fans to no end. What a find for Christian.

No doubt...Nature Boy is the nicer guy and more humble. I did love when DD and Trent went at it though.

Wow factor here......both my sons played high school b-ball....my friend with us coached college b-ball and I coached some high school b-ball and we all said the same thing.....wow.

His footwork is outstanding and he works hard out there.  He seemed to slow down an tad in the second half when Kellogg took over.

Tuesday night against OSU might be his biggest test of the regular season.....the guys guarding him will be athletic as well.

Let's hope his teammate from Monroe who is coming here also pans out.

Since he's the Nature Boy, I only feel it is appropriate for the video boards and loud speakers play Ric Flair's WOOOOOOOOOOO after every made basket. Make it happen. Get the crowd into it.

  Wrong.  The original Nature Boy wrestler was Nature Boy Buddy Rogers and his foil was always Sweet Daddy Siki.  Buddy Rogers had the title way before Flair.  Just ask OCF....he was a big wrestling fan of Moose Cholak back on that oil tender.

Pretty much every team down here in the Carolinas uses it in some fashion... strikeouts, goals, touchdowns, etc. all celebrated with a WOOOOOOOOOOO.

I love it. Gets the crowd involved.

Sorry but I don't see what's "wrong" with his statement.

Big Mo is going to be a legit force in the MAC. 

He was really animated and into it throughout the game. Seems very focused and ready to take on anything.

Hopefully we utilize him wisely against O$U.

I know Ric Flair stole basically his entire gimmick from Rogers, it doesnt change the fact that I want to see more of the jet air plane ridin, stylin and profilin' kiss stealin son of a gun in Maurice NDour promos

5 turnovers from Big Mo tonight. Aside from that & fouling out, he looked alright. Sometimes seems to play outside of himself which is expected for a lanky big guy.

We needed to get the ball into him quicker when he posted up. They collapsed 2 to 3 on him often.I think he saw some speed and strength he is not accustomed too.
