This is one the new staff is starting to look at. Drew Adams is going to see him tonight.

Drive over and see the Kenny and Landon Lampley soon.

He's planning on visiting IU soon, probably some time this month.

Rabby's description of his play: "Long and bouncy, Hill already has the ability to block and alter shots on the defensive end. He's an outstanding lob finisher, can play well above the rim and runs the floor well."

Saw him twice this past season.  Even talked to his coach (Jeff Teague) about him.  My take away was very simple :

He's raw, but this kid will play in the NBA

He has a LOT of work to do, but compared to kids like Xavier Booker, as an example, this kid is a FAR better prospect.  He's far tougher, far more athletic, and I would LOVE IU to land him.

Guys like Rabjohns who describe kids as he did above don't give the full picture.  This kid needs work and has things to develop - positioning, rebounding with something  other than athletic ability, etc.    But....he's going to be REALLY good eventually.

Trevor Andershock thinks he's the best shot blocker his class. Says he's quick off his feet and is a pretty good judge of when shots to go after.

He says that in one of the AAU games today, the official stats gave him 7 blocks, but Andershock, college coaches, and the Indy Heat stat keepers gave him 10 or more and likely 12+.

4-star Isaiah Hill leads the EYBL 16s in blocks with an average of 5 blocks per game, helping his squad go 4-0 in Memphis EYBL Session II.  Georgetown offered today.

We've got ground to make up in his recruitment but IMO our new staff is going to make a major effort.  As I posted earlier today, he's really young for his class and won't turn 16 until August.  He attends Indianapolis Pike HS and plays AAU for the Indy Heat on the EYBL circuit.
