Tough news about McClinton... and yea I like Djitte a lot. Think he would be a good pick up for Wake. I've seen Shelton play a lot as well and here is an article I wrote on him after the commitment http://future150.com/hs/basketball-news/what-shelton-mitchell-will-bring-to-wake-forest-2257

Yes he has been offered

I was at the Phenom 150 Camp all day Sunday, so I got to watch Gary Clark and others play. Here is my recap of the event: http://recruitinghype.blogspot.com/2012/10/phenom-150-camp-showcases-regions-young.html

We're also really targeting PG Keith Pinckney from Miller Grove HS in Georgia

I don't believe it happened. I think it was rescheduled due to Roy Williams' surgery

Wake Forest, VT, NCST, Memphis, Marquette, and Cincy will all visit 2013 C Sidy Mohamed Djitte from Northwood Temple (NC) according to Justin Byerly. Looks like we're still interested. I believe he's still recovering from a big ankle injury that occurred right before the July evaluation period

Evan Daniels just tweeted that 2014 PF Shane Hall had Tennessee and Dayton in to see him yesterday, and that he has him as a top 75 talent. Apparently he thinks his athleticism more than makes up for the fact he's somewhat undersized. So maybe the scout I had talked to before mis-evaluated him...

I've never seen Shane play, but I talked to a scout who has, and he said that he sees him more as MM/MM+ prospect simply due to the fact that he's fairly undersized at the 4 position. He's listed by some services as 6'9" but apparently is only around 6'7". His athleticism and jumping ability...

My point is that Ndiaye goes to high school on the west coast, and it would be tough for Wake to start recruiting him now and get him to come here. Georgetown would be a bigger lure to come all the way to the east coast because 1) They have been recruiting him longer and 2) They are a better...

I've never seen Rimmer play, but Djitte is somewhat raw but has size and good upside. Would be able to make contributions on the boards and on defense when he arrives but would take some time to develop offensively. I wouldn't mind taking a shot on him simply because he has a strong athletic...

Just to let you guys know, ESPN completely restructured their ranking system. Players aren't ranked lower or considered worse prospects this year - ESPN just rank the players differently than they have in the past. The 2013 class is actually a stronger class in general than 2012

Holding "interest" from somewhere can mean a lot of different things. Sometimes a player will get a letter (schools send letters to hundreds of different players) from a school, and it will get reported to the media/scouts as "interest." In some cases it may be legitimate interest but in...

Yea I wanted to change it but all the articles I've written in the past would not show up under my profile if I did that. If you click on my profile thing "pegrcc9" then you can see my information. But my name is Corey Pegram

Here is my summer recap of Wake basketball recruiting and what to look for moving forward. Kind of sums up a lot of the stuff that has been talked about lately and provides some scouting reports, too...

I guess you could compare him a little bit to Stoglin, but Kam appears to play a little more off the ball (at least at this point) than Stoglin did. But yes, they are both pure scorers. I would not expect Kam to put up the kind of numbers Stoglin did at Maryland, though. But I also think Kam...

I got to go down to Peach Jam and saw Kam play a couple times. I included him in my Day 2 Recap http://recruitinghype.blogspot.com/2012/08/peach-jam-day-2-recap.html Here's what I saw: Kameron Williams; 2013 SG- Baltimore Elite 17U For a 6’2” pure shooting guard to play at the high major...

Clark plays down low for his high school team but plays a mixture of inside and outside for his AAU squad, the NC Red Storm, who just finished 5th at AAU Nationals by the way (part of the reason why he is blowing up- coaches saw him down in Florida). Basically, he's a 6'7" hybrid forward who is...

Copeland is definitely a guy who likes to play on the perimeter and is more of a 3 than a 4 at this point, but he'd be tough to turn down if we had the chance to take him. Like you guys said, he's got big time upside. He can shoot it, handle it, and is very athletic. Makes plays on defense...

That was at a tournament earlier in the summer when I spoke to his guardian. I also forgot to mention that Sidy hurt his ankle pretty bad and is out for the rest of the summer. Really too bad for him b/c his recruitment was really starting to pick up and that will definitely hurt his chances...

I spoke to Sidy's guardian (person he is living with in the States), and he told me he is an A/B student
