I'm hoping Coach Sal can turn him into a poor man's taller Jeff Adrien.Is there one for him? Off the top of my head and without much research my #BoneyardTake is a poor man's Donyell.
cliff spliffy? lets hope so, since CLIFF ROBINSON SHOULD BE IN THE NBA HALL OF FAME!!!!I think more Cliff the Spliff than Donyell or Charlie.
Donyell and Charlie were top 5-10 recruits.
More athletic Polley with shot blocking ability

I don't think there is a great comparison in Uconn history. His best attribute is his shot blocking and his second best attribute is his 3 point shooting. This is not a super common combination. I have never watched a full Akok game so I am going off his scouting report and his highlights but the best comparison that was thrown out so far, maybe by @auror? or @polycom? was Tyler Lydon.

Polley is averaging 1.1 blocks per game, second place on the team. Is it possible you are comparing Akok to freshman Polley? I think Polley is playing well on both ends.

It’s going to be interesting to see how Hurley utilizes Polley and Akok together because ideally they both are stretch 4s. Neither is really a 3 or a 5. I guess against weaker competition you can play Akok at the 5 and Polley at the 4, with a 5 out offensive set.Polley is averaging 1.1 blocks per game, second place on the team.
