B10 Basketball Recruiting Thread

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Updated main page to reflect current ranking and recruits for 2017 and 2018 in B1G.

Worth a look.

All 3 of our recruits dropped slightly in the final composite 2017 rankings.

Jaren Jackson ended up a composite #7 in 17. Maryland consistently lands solid players. Purdue 2017 class will be interesting to follow. A couple of late risers.

Ugghh...Trevion Williams. His most recent pre-injury highlight video shows all the big man athleticism of a middle-aged dude after a Golden Corral binge as he "dominates" a bunch of 6'1" guys. This kid is 6'8", and takes finishing below the rim to a whole new level.

And, now he's got foot problems. Hope the young fella gets healthy, but Swanigan part II he ain't. Don't believe me? Watch the video:

 

 

He doesn't even look like he is significantly stronger than the other kids......... how'd he ever get any interest from a high major

Also, Wisconsin and Iowa pretty solid recruiting past 2 years so far.

 I don't get his ranking. And I feel like Purdue got him because everybody else backed off

Painter sold him on that he will be the next Biggie and get him to the NBA like he did Swangian

Oh yes...the sales pitch makes perfect sense. It's the player that is questionable.

ESPN #56 Torrance Watson to O$U and Holtman for 2018. Holtman putting in work.

Have seen Watson play several times. Goes to school with my niece. Really good kid. Really good student and will rep OSU well. A wildly overrated player. Good, not great, athlete. No exceptional skills. Doesn't compete that hard and hates contact. Looks better than he plays.  Rumors around here were Harvard. That would have been a better fit.

Re: Holtman

Interesting note, Scoonie Penn's son, Dominiq, is one of the top 2020 PG's in the Midwest. Scoonie just got hired by Ohio St

I thought they had to be at least an assistant for that to happen...?

Michigan grad transfer Andrew Dakich told ESPN that he will be playing at Ohio State next season. Chris Holtmann needed help in backcourt.

OSU is really hurting for players. I'm guessing Holtmann will turn that around shortly.

Great move by Holtmann. Andrew Dakich is by all accounts a great kid and a locker room leader. Giving one of their many open scollys to him will be very helpful to a culture improvement at OSU.

Watched some tape of Phinisee. He's exactly what I want in a PG. He was beating bigger faster players by being smarter. Passing it right where his teammates needed it. 

Will he be starting his freshman year maybe not. But I bet by his sophomore year he would.
