Ok. How come this kid isn't getting more attention? He looks phenomenal. Sure it's a highlight vid, but he shoots, passes, dribbles, blocks shots, runs the court. This kid looks for real.

Attention from us, or schools?

Most of his AAU games were played in Minnesota and not on a main circuit. I imagine that cut down on being seen by major schools. I think he has WSU's full attention and I'm good with all of that.

I think we need to point out to Steffon that thread petered out in May whereas threads on this board on recruits continue for months if not years.

Not according to anything I can find.

He sounds like he is similar to Hamilton. High ceiling? His recruitment may mirror his.

He's more skilled than Hamilton IMO, but not the same level of athlete. He would certainly blend well with the 3/4s Marshall has been landing lately; Kelly, Brown, Hamilton, McDuffie.

One of the exciting things about recent recruiting is that WSU is now at a level where we are recruiting legit 6-6 to 6-8 wings. I don't consider our 6-7ish PFs to be undersized, but we are just short enough that 6-9 PFs are concerned about being forced to play the center. Landing or developing a 6-10+ C is paramount in the next two years.

As for the 6-7 Shaq, I don't think he has any issues playing center. He is strong enough to push almost any center out of the center of the paint where one might be concerned about the height disadvantage.

Cle comes to mind.

According to Sully I had the right day but wrong month. He says September 9.

I still like this cat but wonder why his stock hasn't blown up.
