Interesting list for a "top 40" guy from the northeast.

 

[Son of Robert]

Doesn't look to promising from this write-up.

His ranking makes no sense.

I feel like a jerk saying it so many times, but I just don't get it. He had to be sick at Peach Jam right? The kid looked SO BAD. He didn't even try to shoot the ball at 6'2 170lbs.

“I like how they let their guards play”

a quote as old as time

I know the staff can't be everywhere at once, but the recent simultaneous visits to IMG, Roselle, Brewster, and swing to Kingswood, seems to indicate our priorities are elsewhere, with Bowen and Griffith confirmed by Boneyard aficionados as co-top hopes. I agree with the weak Peach Jam assessment of @husky429 posted in other threads, but in fairness, that is the only time I watched Lemond. IMO we need a top point guard with size in the next mix of players, but Castle or Wilcher excite me more if the staff has a real shot. Westry in 2022 as well, but there never seems to be any buzz with us there, despite making his final list.

I'm still not out on him. I trust this staff to get the right guys. If we get a visit it will be for a reason

We’ve maxed out on Jersey guards. They are no good for this level. Jersey guards are soft. No identity.

Only Jersey guard we need is a can’t miss prospect in DJ Wagner.

True. Who needs Wilcher? Unless they are the number 1 prospect regardless of class, we shouldn’t be interested.

Did they visit Lemond during this past open period? If not that pretty much tells you the staff's level of interest.

RJ is our best guard this year.
