Tom Crean's First Indiana Hoosier Signing: Tijan Jobe

[I Heart Gambling Online]

Normally, the news that Indiana signed a JuCo transfer who averaged 4.3 points and 3.9 rebounds last season wouldn't be a big deal.

These aren't normal circumstances, however - Tijan Jobe is not your normal basketball player.

Jobe is seven feet tall and weighs 245lbs. Originally from Gambia, Jobe possesses a 7-5 wingspan and according to his junior college coach Jeff Burris, an amazing physique as well.

"The two things I think will be his initial impact are a post presence and a physical presence," Burris said. "I have not seen a better body this year. He has an NBA body up top."

Jobe will be leaned on heavily to replace senior forward D.J. White, the Big Ten Player of the Year last season.
