I’ll say it. I would much rather have a prospect with this explosiveness, length, and shot than Keels. And I’ll take every sour grape you got.

If he has that level of shot, length and explosiveness then he’s a top 10 prospect lmao

Perfect fit for that third guard!
Looked like an 8 ft rim in the first clip he elevated so high.

When you offer everyone in an entire recruiting class, how do you even follow up on recruits? Or do you just show up to random high school games knowing there is a good chance it will have 3-4 guys you offered?

Sencire Harris: #59 (Down 8 spots)
Austin Nunez: #65 (Down 2 spots)
Isaac Traudt: #67 (Down 1 spot)

Kam Craft: #93 (New)
Tyler Nickel: #96 (Down 5 spots)
Jameel Brown: #112 (No movement)
Alphonzo Billups: #117 (New)
McKneely had a really cold stretch during his high school season, although he certainly heated up at the end. And know he had one good night at the start of the AAU season, but didn’t hear anything after that. Who knows.
Who does Rivals even have to rank players these days? Have they hired some new basketball guys since Evans and Bossi left?

A joke, seriously a joke. Why didn’t they just rank Isaac Squared at 69.

Isaac squared not each being top 45 is gonna look pretty stupid in a few years. Maybe even by the end of the summer

Matthew Hurt was ranked #10 - I think that Traudt may be better. Duke interest = 40 places in the rankings.

Let our guys like Traudt be under appreciated. I am OK with that. We all know McKneely is a stud so who cares what they think. Remember whatever you think of Clark he was rated #397 and we don’t win the championship without him.

A few head scratchers on the rankings of guys we aren’t even involved with. Nickel has been red hot with the exception of one game. He drops. Traudt has been good and gaining a lot of attention he drops. I’ve always thought some degree of politics from AAU teams somewhat influenced the ranking. That and blue blood interest/offers.

Still ridiculous we haven’t offered Trimble

Nah that ship sailed after Michigan offered. Don’t think he would have been a Hoo even if we offered, listening to his interviews.

So true!
Jamie Shaw, Dan McDonald, and Rob something or another. Shaw was a nice add for them after Evans and Bossi left. He gets out there, works hard. But his background is covering the Carolinas for PhenomHoops, and really more in organizing/promoting their events. McDonald runs events for the Lakepoint facility in Georgia, which means he doesn’t see anything else. And the other guy is just a recruiting writer I think who had covered football for years until recently. Doesn’t seem real active on the scene, other than getting interviews.
