Hoops BBall Recruiting (2006-7)

Does 2009 count as the near future? :lol:

We have a superstar Sophomore Point Guard commitment right now.

 

this three star guy?

He'll be top 25 when all is said and done.

 

says who

TMG is averaging 20 pts/gm as a sophomore.

 

Voogd averaged 26.5 ppg as a Junior

 

Nothing against Voogd, but Oregon HS athletics can't compare to that in Texas. Houston and Dallas have some very good HS basketball teams.

 

well, i wouldnt say its a "PROBLEM" this time

 

What's more telling is to watch the kid's film. The kid is built like a rock and can penetrate to the hole, lift up and hit the nice floater. He's also able to get inside off the dribble, and despite his size, steal a few rebounds. He's working on his long outside shot, but he will immediately give us speed and the ability to penetrate and dish, which is something this team cannot do right now. Although, I did like how Ben played in his last game... perhaps there's hope there.

"One criticism of me that I'll accept is that I haven't really signed a true point guard in my ten years," LSU coach John Brady said. "Torris Bright was actually a two-guard. (see Rivals latest article: http://lsu.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=637375).


By the way, the Garrett Green watch continues. The boy is up to a crazy +80% FG% (hitting 2s and 3s). Not scoring a lot of points, but he's a decent shooter. Could he be the next Chris Johnson... :grin: ?

For all those interested, here's a relevant article on the PG saga at LSU. Certainly paints the same picture many of us have been lamenting. But, know that the staff knows this and is trying to work on it...
