Dshamal Shoetz

God, I still remember the Joel going bat shit crazy of Fingleton when he was visiting. That stupid ass limey.
 
i just want to be IN on this thread

Schoetz loved the elbow jumper for some reason

I remember that and all the damn British flags. So glad he chose UNC instead. We had enough bad luck with centers and didn't need him to add to the list of Shoemaker, Woods, Shoetz, and Decker.
 
It speaks to how bad Rodney West was that he doesn't even get mentioned.
 
Didn't Josh PumpFaker play the 4 with Vidaurreta at the 5?
 
The Shoe did not play the 5. He played the 4...he is listed as a center though.

Shoe and Raf played the same position. Shoe took his starting spot when Vidauretta got hurt (his back, I think). Darius was the 4.
 
Anybody remember Hartmut Ortmann?

Yeah I knew Hart. Good guy, sorta spastic. Very good raw athlete, he was an exceptional leaper for his size. Unfortunately, that didn't translate into "good basketball player". He hung out with Craig Wessel. Now that guy, Wessel, is my nomination for THE biggest stiff ever to get a basketball scholarship from WFU.

Was Shoetz THE original "moves well around the buffet" guy? I think he was.

Another blast from the past - Joakim Blom. Looks like someone is still paying him to play, and he's doing ok. http://www.eurobasket.com/player.asp?Cntry=SWE&PlayerID=4875
 
He was certainly no Neil Fingleton or Orlando Melendez.

Ironically I went out on two dates w Orlando Melendez when I was a junior at Wake after meeting him at a house party. Nice guy, no sparks, but funny.

Also, last I talked to him he was a globetrotter, but not sure if he still is.
