Message: [QUOTE="Ricker, post: 3188365, member: 1245"] I'm interested who the boneyard sees as the most impactful, (and possible), players to add to the team in the next recruiting cycle. Assuming Manuel is added for this year, if Gilbert stays, we have Vital's spot and our penalized scholarship. This is the first year that I'm entering July without a rooting interest as to our recruiting targets. I'm assuming we will target 1 front court player and 1 backcourt/wing replacing Vital. (A ball handler by transfer or late commit in the spring if Gilbert is leaving). If Gilbert stays we have 3 ball handlers with Cole, and Gaffney. Jackson at wing doesn't upgrade our shooting and seems redundant to Wilson & Bouknight & Adams. I haven't been able to figure out what Springs at power forward would give us that improves the team. I've only seen him twice but never saw anything worthy. The wide body kid from Ohio seems too earthbound to be effective. Diarra would seem to give us a good hard nosed guard like Vital but my understanding is that he is a lesser pure shooter. Langford? He seems redundant to B Adams. Per Verbal commits neither Diarra nor Langford is listed as offered. Taelon Martin has dropped from a 5 star prodigy to over 200, what has happened there? My current thought is 1 of Diarra/Langford and hold open a scholly for a big big foreign or domestic in the spring. I just don't see who moves the needle for us in this class. Mark Williams is interesting but I'm not sensing the interest is mutual. Welcome your thoughts [/QUOTE]
