    How would he reclassify to a year earlier if he won't be a senior in high school until next year? Is he going to graduate as a junior? Or am I not reading something right?
    Yes all kinds of ways to get credits before August.

      If he was able to get the credits so he could reclassify, what would he be, 17? Or was he held back in one of his previous school years?

        Can he still reclassify to 2019?!

          A commitment for a player like this would really go along way to showing we are serious about competing in the AAC and beyond.

          Need to start making it a norm, not a surprise, to pulling players in the Top 50-100 range.

            We certainly need somebody that can finish in the paint and is not afraid of a little contact. I like MU if he could stop fouling. But I am not impressed with AM or IPBC for next year. If we could get him, JBiliau, along withJ Michael we would have more athleticism on the front line with an experienced backcourt.

              Hoping to sign him to a 10-day contract for the stretch run this year, ST?

                I don't pretend to have any inside knowledge, but there's certainly no doubt that players can graduate from high school in fewer than four years if they try. In football, it's almost becoming the norm for coveted recruits to graduate in December and join their college teams for the second semester of what would have been their senior year of high school so they can go through spring football practice and get a head start. I know that Alabama, for instance, has at least a dozen early enrollees in its latest recruiting class.

                Obviously, in basketball the timing works out differently; it's a two semester sport. So a kid would have to be able to graduate in three years plus a summer session to jump ahead. But, as others have noted, that's certainly possible too -- just somewhat more compressed than the 3 1/2 year program for footballers.

                  I'd like to see another big. And I'd like to see Marshall sign a really good big. He seems to be able to get good guards, why not a good big?

                    Name me some.really good bigs outside of the power 5? Not saying there aren't any, but they are few and far between. Jamie is a pretty good one in my opinion.

                      Precious Achiuwa immediately comes to mind; agree with your point regards their rarity. Three more you could consider according to Andy Katz

                      1. Yoeli Childs, BYU;
                      2. Anthony Lamb, Vermont;
                      3. Nathan Knight, William & Mary;

                            Drop a couple bags for this kid. Call Memphis and get their guy’s more experienced boss.

                              Color me surprised if we get this kid.

                              WSU isn’t known for landing Top 75 level recruits, even in a league were other schools can.
