WHY?  Just doesn't make sense to me unless none of the dominoes of our major targets are going to fall our way.

Sometimes our recruiting seems completely inept and sporadic. Just shotgun wild. Win so few of our initial targets. (Have to imagine bad news from initial targets).

Put your seatbacks and tray tables in their locked positions, it's going to be a rough ride.

Just watched some of his videos from YouTube, it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out to say the least.

I just don't understand why we can't hold off on offering a kid like this until our targets that we've invested years in decide. Makes zero sense

Odd week of big man recruiting...

About time, I've been on Clifton Moore Jr. for a long time now and he is definitely shovel ready, I mean his handles are out-of--

Nah, I'm lyin', I ain't got no idea who he is.

You had me excited for a second, not cool man, not cool

[IUfan_Charlie]

None of the major recruiting sites even have a page for him. That's reassuring.

Guys... Hearing this guy is actually really good. People in Philly were hoping he stayed under the radar so he would end up at one of the local schools but the word got out. Check out his twitter for some better videos. He can really shoot it and I think Jordan Tucker is his cousin.

We's the kings of "under the radar"!!

High level academics are a plus here. An informative write up on Scout:

After watching 1 video, I'm buying into what BTOWN said. I do agree with everyone else that I hope he isn't our lone big, but I think everyone on here would be happy if we landed one of our 4/5 star bigs along with this guy. Ceiling could be very high for a guy his size that moves as well as he does and can shoot it.

[Stuhoo]

There is no question from watching videos this young man has a very good handle for his size. Also, a text book jumpshot with a high release

[hoosierpap]

Yes. Kid is from around my way. Horsham is sorta out there in the woods (45 min from the city), so to speak, so it doesn't surprise me that if he is playing at Hatboro-Horsham AND a tiny AAU team that no one really knows about him. Honestly, the only reason I've ever heard about Horsham is because there is a psych hospital there that everyone talks about. 

When you combine the HS he's at and the fact that he isn't playing for a shoe company AAU it makes sense to me he's "flying under the radar."

I'll get the details here...

Full profile on ITH. The kid has NO SHOE COMPANY AFFILIATION (0MG).

His Coach says Clifton > Malik Williams.

Will he be the next OG or the next Jeremiah April? (Cue dramatic music)

[HoosierAloha]

Like I said about Manley, he'd be a solid option as the third big to bring along slowly.

Best of luck to him and the IU staff (landing a solid big) this is starting to look like a hint to just land a big, any big.
