Yeah but we aren’t going hard after a lot of guys because the staff wants to be “selective”. Yeah selective of guys that want to select other schools

Still have a couple of more weeks for guys to enter the portal and a few thousand other guys to go after. So far we are 1-2 on guys we went after hard and that is a better percentage than going after high school kids. You offer like 20 high school recruits and you only sign 3 that means you miss out on 17 and that is 15%

Just perusing the interweb.  Kid from FSU, Matthew Cleveland.  Just entered last week. 35% from 3.  Like his scouting write up.  Promissing?

Sure, but, he also changed last second. So it for sure flipped today at the visit.

it should IU was leading and every person who seemed to know anything said fhat

it also showed St J - very little if any interest 

then a few who follow this see him start adding Tenn players this afternoon. He was flipped then.

The got him over and would love to know how and not this narrative Rabby J is selling. 

Show me the moneyyyyyyyyyyyy.  :)

I would lean more towards nothing really changed and "every person who seemed to know anything" didn't really know that much, if anything.

Moving on.

I know I'm beating it to death, but....Quincy Guerrier from Oregon.  6'8"....big wing.  Probably a more natural 3 than Ledlum was (not saying he's a better player than Ledlum, but he's more of an above rim player than Ledlum.  He won't be a blow-by-you player, but moves well enough and defensively has the length to recover.  Will play through contact.  Solid build.

Wonder if Ware could go to work for us here... like the tape!

On July 2nd of last year Kansas St. had two players on their roster and ended up in the elite 8

I know that every player looks good in the highlight tape -- everyone shoots 100% in them.  So I try to look more at moveset, how the player responds to contact, their shooting form.  His moveset is okay but on the interior looks solid;  looks like he most definitely likes to play through contact.  His shooting form looks really good.

I expect he would be a 10 and 5 type of player but does have a ceiling higher than that -- he's put up a 14 and 8 average in the ACC already.  I am all in on buying that Altman is losing his touch and that he isn't getting the maximum out of his talent -- part of the reason I am expecting big things from Ware.

Could not agree with you any more, same exact views on all fronts over here. We'll see if things heat up! Would make a lot of sense

I think he played his first two years at Syracuse so now it is time for him to play in the midwest

He did.  He's a Canadian kid.  Had a nice offer list out of high school -- Syracuse, Illinois, Xavier, GTown, NC State, OKlahoma, Providence among others.  Ranked 131st in the 2019 class.

New to the portal:

Tre White, 6'7" wing, USC.  averaged 9 ppg and 5.1 rpg last season in 27 mpg as a freshman.  Shot 47/27/69.  50th ranked recruit coming in last year.  247 analysis out of high school:  

A powerfully built small forward at 6-6. An explosive leaper off two feet. Has functional basketball athleticism and versatility skill wise. A keep the defense honest long range shooter. Prefers to score off the dribble. Has a reliable pull up jumper and can finish in traffic. Handles the ball well and can be a playmaker with his passing. Can rebound in traffic and will chase down a rebound. Defensively, can typically adequately defend any position.
