Are we sleeping on this kid? I mean any guard to be recruited by Ollie has to have Div 1 skills. The season is underway and we still don't have much to say about him. I think we have a secret weapon on our team.

DHam, Purvis and Lubun have had their own threads but not Sam. Well he's to you Sam!

Other than having an NBA father what do we know about him? Linky

He had previously committed to Maryland but didn't qualify.

Yeah what Palatine said. He signed with Maryland so I would have to assume he is higher level D1 talent.

I haven't seen much on anyone to this point with practices being closed basically. I'm really looking forward to seeing with the eyeball test what skills these new players have. So little by little we will get an idea, tonight, exhibition then lower div I competition and then big time wars. We will have a lot more info in about 8-10 weeks on their plusses and minuses, but anyone KO takes has something for sure. Psyched for tonight!

We know that he looks less like his father and more like Greg Monroe

The phrases you are hearing around Sam all point to him as a game manager:

High IQ
Mature
Old Man Game
Gets to the spot on the floor he wants every time at his own pace

We are so deep at the 1-3 that KO can make minutes exclusively about who is working hardest at the defensive end. That's a great luxury.

This was posted on another thread but worth posting here just in case people missed it.

I'm going to assume that's a mistake, because it's definitely impossible.

Rothstein and now Tim Welsh have said he will start with Rodney and Boat............he must be impressing some!

Not saying he will be as good as them, but I think just like the Kemba & Bazz recruitments where they were landed as backup plans, Cassell Jr will yield the better return over some of the other more highly regarded(by the recruiting svcs) options the staff was recruiting.

He must've been incredibly impressive yesterday in practice, because Rothstein and Welsh were both there.
