I did a seach and didn't see this kid mentioned so i'll add him to the list.

He is a 6-8 200 ib. PF from Winder, Georgia.

He has offers from Richmond and Wichita State.

Interest from: Charlotte, Georgia, Georgia Southern, Georgia Tech, and Virginia Commonwealth.

He could be a project, otherwise he would have offers from bigger schools.

Not always true. Look who Toure was offered by.

Snap, I don't know if I agree. I would say that our coaches probably saw something and offered early. Richmond isn't shabby and some others will probably offer this summer. I would agree that he probably isn't a Top 100 recruit either. A lot of good players aren't Top 100.

VCU is no slouch either.

As a side, it's interesting that Norcross HS is the Blue Devils and their logo is a direct rip-off of Duke's "Blue Devil". I thought colleges were making a big stink about high schools infringing on their logos.

North Carolina State is recruiting him.
