Shaq meets 7'9" Olivier Rioux

[CondorCat]

Shaquille O'Neal 7' 1" comes face-to-face with Florida redshirt freshman Oliver Rioux 7' 9".

Shaq's left leg weighs more than that kid.

Gotta love Shaq. Always been a great dude.

 

[Digger-Cat]

Love Shaq, such a great person and in his prime, was incredible on the court.

 

[StubbornPenny]

Nice skit, love the cartoon reaction by Shaq. That being said he could probably pick and throw Rioux lol.

 

[blue cincy]

Shaq could pass gas and block out the kid right now. It is really hard for some of those guys to gain proper muscle and get the core strong enough to matter. If he is dedicated he can do it.

That "kid" is not your typical giant beanpole, he weighs 309-lbs and he looks to have put on some muscle since attending IMG!!!

When is he gonna play ?

 

[Digger-Cat]

When is Ritchie gonna play ?

Sorry, had to do it.

I don’t think Shaq had to look up many times in his life. The kid’s head is very close to the ceiling. Shaq made his day.

I hope he develops and goes straight into the NBA. Skipping out on the Gators

He’s a very raw project! Long way from being able to play in a SEC game. But give the kid credit for trying to improve. Who knows in a couple years.

I have a love hate thing going on with Shaq sure he's went on to become a great person but man he was a bully back in college. The way he tried to intimidate our players in the lay up line before the game at Rupp never sat well with me. We then went on smoke LSU that game!

Saw him dunk in a highlight. He barely jumped, heck, maybe he didn’t even have to. Ball looks like a beach ball in his hand.

Eh, he was doing what he had to do back then. They all talk smack and that guy came up on the rougher side of the rr tracks.
