I saw an interview with him, where he said Kentucky has offered him for next years class, so he may go to a prep school for a year. He also said he liked schools with a strong fan base.

What we need here is not a feat of strength, but the strength of feet!

Curious. No star rating at all and he has several offers including Kentucky.

He needs to let that thing grow out into a full-fledged afro a la Sasser. Only then should we recruit him.

Appears to have the same build as Haynes but a much better outside jumper. ESPN has him ranked as the #110 SG in the country.

How do we break into the top 25 when our best very long shot prospect is the #110 rated SG in the country? If we were to be successful in his recruitment would that not make us the #110 rated college??? Logic would dictate that 109 other colleges have recruited better SGs thereby establishing our ranking at #110. Using this same logic accounts for why we are where we are today ( or am I missing something here and failed my logic course??).

Just as a comparison, McCoy was ranked # 31 pg, Dubois #103 pg, Otis #106 pf , & Haynes was not ranked by ESPN last year.
