Maybe getting left out of the latest ESPN Top 100 made him a bit angry :x

Love the way he takes the ball to the hoop, finishes through contact. And he can shoot. I think Dana will end up being a steal.

I love his midrange jump shot. Some times highlights can be misleading. Proctor Academy is weak. I saw Dana for a full game in against top competition. He had very good midrange skills the entire 40 minutes.

And he's strong. He might not be ripped like Jared, but he's a big, strong kid.

Yeah I think he looks really good , he can do a lot of things shoot from outside nice mid range can jump

Also he will have chip on shoulder feeling disrespected not being top 100

A Kendall Pollard type career is probably this kid's floor.

Wasn't Pollard more of an inside guy ?? Dana seems more of a take the ball to the basket guy as well as a mid range shooter

Dana and his MacDuffie team are playing at St. Andrews in Barrington this Saturday at 5:30. Good chance to watch Dana play along with his teammates Ismael Massoud and James Bouknight, 2 other Rhody recruits.

Was looking forward to watching Dana play today. Unfortunately he didn't. He was on crutches. Actually, most of the time he was walking around carrying his crutches. His ankle was wrapped up, so I'm guessing he sprained it. Bouknight didn't play either. St. Andrews blew out Mac Duffie.

I was just reporting on two tweets. Koch tweeted they were coming and someone else tweeted they were sitting in the first row behind the bench.
I am guessing Koch got that info pregame from a URI team representative. With so many tweets last night on Rhody MBB it would be crazy for me to try to find the second tweet now. I didn't see Dana personally.

Tate and these guys are BIG. They will give us that muscle we had success with last year and the year before when other teams' fans were saying we were on steroids.

I think all 4 coming in could have great careers. They all will have different roles and have very different bodies.

The Mike Laysards/Prestons/Tertseas need to have a battle royale and someone rise out of them to contribute. I think Mike needs a little body transformation too. 2 out of those 3 offer blocked shot potential. DH's defense goes into overdrive when you have a shot blocker back there. LAngevine blocks shots very well when he is off the ball. Him and another out there will work well.

Dana could be one of the best ambassadors for the program we have ever had when it is all said and done. I love his personality, attitude, and commitment. Not to mention what he could bring as a player. I think he could be a 6'8" TJ.

Lets make the right decision, because if DC isn't the coach we will never see Dana on Campus, why ? Coach Boswell recruited Dana from Expressions Elite the same program as Jared Terrell. If DC isn't the coach Boswell will not be on staff, Dana Tate is clearly the ambassador of this class, we need to do the right thing.

Watching that video it appeared like Dana and Cyril were about the same height. I've seen Dana's height listed anywhere from 6-5 to 6-8.
