2020 Recruiting Wish List

The staff is all in on Andre Jackson. Look for us to push hard for one of Andre Curbelo or Hassan Diarra.

I don't think we have watched Andre since our initial offer, and we have yet to offer Hassan....
 
would love to land Jackson and a center like Hugley.

the 20-21 PG spot would be jam packed with gilbert, cole, gaffney, and curbelo/diarra

Agreed. Would much prefer a 2/3 combo type. Even 2. We're pretty weak at the 3 going forward (Sorry Sid.)

Lane and Jackson both fit that bill. Jackson could even play some point forward and let our guards shoot

Spot on.
 
Do you guys think the move to the big east maybe sways AGs desire to stay or not?
 
Spot on.

I've watched almost every eybl game Jackson has played (for reasons unrelated to him as a recruit). And two hs games. He is a VERY good passer, fights pressure, plays from the 4 hole against zones. Tbh he's pretty good, if not very good, at everything but shooting. Maybe forces and turns it over a bit too much.

Against Westtown his team went zone and he defended Franck Kepnang (a center) well. Then in man guarded Gaffney and collier. D1 is another level of course.. but that switchability is sooo up Hurley's alley. Hard hedge with the athleticism to recover? Yes please.

If we went super small with Jackson at the 4, our guards would cook from the perimeter.

Feel like Bouk will play a lot of 3 in Hurley’s offense though. Would love to have 2 good ball handlers at the guards (Cole, AG, Gaffney) and then Bouk at the 3. Wilson/Polley can play both forward roles off the bench, as could Jackson if we land him.

Hurley is going to play 3 guards, a wing/strech-4 and a big. Definitely plenty of skill to change things up depending on matchups with the guys on our team and the way we're recruiting. Bouk will see time at the 2 and a lot at the 3, no question. Imagine a team where Bouk comes out from the 3 and a kid as athletic as Jackson creates havoc on defense?
 
as a general rule i like forwards to weigh more than 190 lbs soaking wet

Me too...but we’re talking about 2020/2021 here. There’s a major problem if these guys both aren’t above 200 by then. And the game has changed...you can get away with a small ball lineup more than you could 10 years ago.

Cliff is like one good session away from Kentucky and UNC offering. He might be out of our reach even in the BE. Would be a huge land at this point.

But we have Chief on our side.
