Amen. Landen Lucas -- who kicked our @$$ in March -- was the 250th (or so) ranked player in his senior class. Amida, who's been one of the best defensive centers in the country for three years, was somewhere around there. Phil Nolan, who started in a national championship game that his team won, was around 130.
Carlton is generally rated higher than all of them. Good size, good hands, rebounds, blocks a few shots. I don't care if he comes in and sits for his entire freshman year -- he has the potential to provide adequate depth and cover of the type that allows Ollie to swing-and-miss on a bunch of 5-star targets without said misses proving to be fatal to the program.
Bear in mind that Enoch will be a junior and Durham a sophomore when this kid arrives, so it's not like he'll be filling a short-term need. He's a long-term play that gives the staff a ton of recruiting flexibility (good enough potential to develop, but not so good that he'd scare away any big recruits) down the road.
This is Ollie thinking as a GM/program manager and not just a coach.
