    I like this “signing.” HCIB is binging in some size, length and athleticism to his squad. That’s a pretty solid recruiting class he’s put together.

      Impressive pickup on multiple levels. 1. Late in the recruiting season to get a top 200 guy. 2. Beating out some stiff competition who had been recruiting him for a while. ,3. 4.0 student who can ball ,4. Fits the bill of what IB said he was looking for, a high upside guard to develop

        P.S. This isn’t a knock on anyone else in the program, but a 4.0 always gets my attention.

          I'm pretty sure he's an Arkansas native .. so stealing him from Arkansas is a big win in itself.

          He's going to be on campus in less than a week .. lets go!!

            Hopefully this translates to BBIQ. Seems we were sorely lacking in this area at times last year.

              Anybody still doubt HCIB's ability to recruit?

                I’m definitely starting to like what I see.

                  Lot's of good skills from a strong nationally respected program. A long athletic player in the same vein as Dexter and Ricky. A very good shooter, and rebounder. Tremendous potential on the defensive end. Last year, I wasn't always happy with Ricky Council's effort, and the minutes he sat, said to me that IB wasn't always happy with it either. This year, no one can afford to give bad effort or they can sit. Great late recruiting get.

                    Hard to imagine not being excited about all of the guys coming in. At least on paper, they address our three biggest weaknesses last year - shooting, rebounding and length.

                    Very excited to be back in a packed Koch arena next year to see these guys develop.

                    American conference is on notice.

                            Pedigree ...

                            Lebron James only lost 6 games in high school, playing for St. Vincent-St. Mary.

                            2 of those 6 losses were to Oak Hill.

                            LJ was only able to beat Oak Hill once in three tries.
                            Kung Wu say, man making mistake in elevator wrong on many levels.

                                Body type/movement/style of play remind me of the late Anthony Grundy (NC State).
