BBall Recruiting Thread 2k18 - Hoard, Mucius, Lewis, and Wright sign NLIs!

Agreed. Markedly improved quickness, strength and decisiveness. Also impressed with maintenance of shot form when shooting under pressure.

Is wrangor coming for the mixtape crown?!

Mixtapes are tough, but there are always signs you can look for on players. Made shots and dunks are less important than form, and footwork. How a player moves on the court can't be hidden by a good mixtape. Passing/vision are sometimes illustrated well. Ball handling and shooting are both a mixed bag in reality when you watch a 2 minutes clip, but for those of us who can't make it to live games anymore, using the mixtape is a very useful tool if you know what to look for. For instance it was clear that Collins was going to be very good, very quick as I watched his tape from high school. You can still get fooled, and I am not immune, but you can get fooled after watching full games in person as well. Sometimes high school dominance just doesn't translate.

I like this kid a lot. Think he will be a big time wing for us if we get him.
 
Agreed, he's also big enough to play PF

Dotson, Brown, Hoard, Mucus and some stud center coached up by Manning would be a ridiculous core in a few years

Make it so
 
I wouldn't think that matters. They can both play 2-4. There would be plenty of minutes to go around for both of them. If Brown turns out to be a stud as well we would just play them at the 2/3/4 and run teams ragged.

We'll have three guys who can all play center already on the roster. I wouldn't be shocked if one them becomes a stud.
 
I really like Hoard, he passes the mixtape eye test easily
 
We could use a few Slytherins. We got too many Hufflepuffs for far too long.
