6'6'', 210 lbs. | Class of 2012

Strengths: He's playing basketball in a all-pro tight end's body. That's real talk, this kid is exceptionally strong. He's bolstered his physical game with a mid-range jump shot and owns that shot. He doesn't get wild and jack 3's, he's makes mid-range 2's. Spends a good portion of time in the lane and getting hustle plays.
Weaknesses: He's going to require a post-grad year. Because of his size, the college game will negate a measure of his effectiveness, especially if he tries to go too high. There will be situations versus bigger players where he won't be able to bully guys with size and strength.
Bottom Line: He's a blue collar, working man's forward who could do damage in a league like the A-10, CAA or MAC.

Isn't he already on the team and playing under the name "John Kopriva'?
Or is that actually Bill Brigham pretending to be John Kopriva?
I think you have to sign a guy named Brutus regardless
I was thinking the same thing Mentz, with a name like Brutus, it is scary just having him on the roster. Now, if he was a 7' we would have to sell a few kids to get him. Maybe he will grow?

does not look 6'5" to me but who knows. Looks very strong. I agree with ESPN - a tight end prospect.
He's not just a guy named Brutus; he's a power forward named Brutus. No brainer!
Do we really need another combo forward ? Just sayin'
Arkansas, Tennessee, GW, Charlotte.

FinkelsteinNERR: New York native & Massanutten Military forward Terry Brutus is taking an official visit to Drake this week. (51 minutes ago from web)
One of my AAU friends has seen him play and said he was "a grown ass man" and would definitely be able to compete in the A-10.
