Narrowed down his list to 5

 

[UConnStats]

I'm not sure if UConn or Syracuse are really recruiting him anymore. He hasn't developed as well as people expected skill-wise, and was more or less a non-factor in EYBL and Peach Jam play.

 

[Kmba2Rmemba]

Anyone have a quick scouting report?

 

[Wordbomar]

Seen him play twice. Underskilled for his size it seemed. Doesn't get much accomplished. Big body though

Sounds like it's between Syracuse/Washington.

Under skilled for 6'11?

I saw him a couple times at Brewster but I was focused on Makai and Wilson. He wasn't a starter, and I doubt he will be this year. He was good enough to notice, but must have grown recently, because he was more like 6'8. In terms of body type, movement, and limited basketball skills, he was a Marcus White type. He was very active but not proficient or efficient at anything. Like Facey, he was very fleet and looked like he had potential. He didn't put the ball on the floor or make any offensive moves that I recall. He is the kind of player that could improve significantly, especially if his body was still growing when I saw him. I'm sure it takes time for a kid to adjust to his own growth. He is not going to be a power player or a rim protector from the center position, He would protect the rim from off the ball like Donyell did. I doubt he will have any outside game, but maybe he just wasn't ready as a Jr. He isn't the low post scoring/rebounding/impact stud that we need, but he is another potentially good player like we have now on the roster. Brewster doesn't start their season until after the early signing period so I won't be able to see him again to reevaluate

Would not be opposed to getting a kid that needs a couple of years of seasoning through red shirting and practice squad. If he contribute 10-20 minutes a minute soph through senior year, I would be in favor. Would like see some kids come for the 4-5 yr ride.

 

[UCDaveD]

Land this kid and get TeWarren Grant and we have ourselves the Regulators.

I don't see a heck of a lot of downside to recruiting a relatively well-regarded 6'11" kid from the best prep school program on the planet.

What planet?

 

[Fishy]

What planet?

Is there something wrong with you?

 

[Stainmaster]

What planet?

I was under the impression that Brewster was pretty universally seen as not just the class of the NEPSAC, but ahead of nationwide schools like Sunrise, Montverde, and Findlay. Who would you rank ahead of them?

We should only take this kid if it means establishing roots in their program. He doesn't sound good enough to take this early based on talent.

Any list that not only doesn't feature a single NEPSAC school (much less ranks Fairfield Prep as the top HS program in New England) should not be taken seriously.

That's a list of high schools, not post-graduate schools. Players who have graduated high school are ineligible to play in those schools.

 

[Stainmaster]

OK.......

I'm not going to give a list authority just because it exists on the internet. That one is just as valid as the one UCDaveD posted a few months ago about how UTEP had a better recruiting class than we did.

Forget it - he got lost at "prep program."

Brewster's won the National Prep Championship five times since 2010.

There's no one close.

Come on man Brewster is the class of the field. I get debating for debates sake, but you'd have to make so may caveats for Brewster to not be number one it's just not worth it.
