Many of you HS hoops recruiting fans already know about him and may have seen him. I watched him during the HS playoffs.

Here is who already has offered him according to his coach:
Indiana
Memphis
UCLA
Texas
North Carolina

Read somewhere that a Memphis asst. watched one of the games in person. He is 6-5, 185, great length/wingspan. Pretty good on-the-ball defender and very solid outside shot. Also, a strong rebounder. Very impressed.

In the game I saw, he took over in the fourth quarter, knocking down 3 consecutive 3s and created about 3 steals. Think he had 20 in the second half. He plays the game at a different level.

Think he could grow to about 6-7 and 210 before its over and be a huge slasher. I guess I saw where he is considered the top 2009 recruit in this state.

Richland's season is over. We probably have no shot with the other schools in the mix. But I thought you all would like to know a first-hand account.

Great player. If we get him on campus to see Crum....well, you never know.

Dennis is the type of player that would attract alot of other locals to the program.
Doesn't look like we are in the hunt @ all.
Interesting that SF Austin is on his list of favorites.

Also, noticed we dropped off of Henderson's (LD Bell) list of favorites

No top 10 recruit in the state of Texas has SMU even on their list of favorites according to TexasHoops.
