Future big man target?

[Red+BlueDude]

I saw a story in today's Washington Post about Jerai Grant -- son of Harvey, nephew of Horace -- who's a center at DeMatha (outside of D.C.) He's got great bloodlines, he's 6-foot-7 .... and he's a high school freshman. When The Commitment was announced, it was said that Coach Dement could fly to visit a kid. He should come get Grant. I'm sure no other coaches want DeMatha guys with NBA bloodlines, right?

Uh oh.

"Jerai has received phone calls from Division I college coaches, according to his father, and letters from schools are filling the mailbox at the school. "

Right. Gary Williams probably already has a jersey with his name on it. And you can bet that Clemson (where his uncle played) and Oklahoma (where his dad played after transferring from Clemson) are going to apply a full-court press, too.
