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

Since we are still going after PGs, does that mean the staff sees Sharone as a SG?
 
I think Wright is a flex player. He is expected to grow more so he could play a variety of positions.
 
If Wright turns out to be CJ Fair 2.0, that would be an absolute steal. My expectations are way lower.

They are talking about Melo Eggleston being CJ Fair 2.0 but either way it would be an absolute steal.
 
Although Wake listed as one of four main suitors, only one who didn't get a blurb. Reality or editing?

I wasn't saying that Melo is CJ fair just that he reminds of that type of player. He might absolutely stink but his tool set reminds me that classic Syracuse 3/4 player that can play multiple positions on the court.

Every current player 6'8" or taller thinks they are a stretch four.

LOL. That's not true at all. They still all think they're wings.

We've talked about Mucius playing the four with Chaundee and Hoard though.

I think the Hoard/Mucius recruitment sounds too much like the Chaundee/Brandon Randolph recruitment last year. We all tried to convince ourselves that they could play together and were interested in playing together, but then IIRC Randolph basically eliminated us when Chaundee committed.

I say we get one of the two, with the first to commit "scaring off" the other, especially if Hoard commits to Wake. Mucius has already insinuated that he wants to be "the man."

If you're into negative vibes, Mucius retweeted these pictures of Brandon Randolph in his Zona uni on Friday.

 
Brandon Randolph is Mucius' best friend. It was one reason we were so optimistic about landing them last summer.

Well damn. Maybe Randolph said nice things about us. Arizona doesn't seem to be recruiting him.
 
Mucius is a wing not a stretch 4. It really isn't even a discussion. Guy can handle it and can really score off the dribble. If we somehow manage Hoard and Mucius they will both play on the wing and that will be incredible. It looks like Manning wants to go 4/1 with a dominant center 3 big wings and a true PG. I kind of like it.

It allows us a lot of defensive flexibility and keeps the pace high. Just need to land these two big wings.

Agree with Mucius being a wing. He plays SG or SF for his HS and AAU teams
