Brandon Childress Commits!!!

Need clarification....

Young Childress is reported to be 6'0" 165 and not apparantly highly rated. Other than the father-son angle, is the main reason we offered him is to gain an advantage with the 2 highly rated kids he plays with who apparantly also are his buds ? If so, the father and Manning must really think a package deal is highly likely, yes ?

Is that the gist of all this ?

No. Brandon is a solid player. His rankings are catching up to him now according to 247. He's a bit undersized, but a great shooter. There are obviously other factors which make the commitment more exciting, but he deserves the scholarship he's earned and should contribute.

Brandon looks really good. Lights out shooter which we are severely lacking. Top 100 player. Early commit. Really good teammates that we have offered. Dad is an assistant coach. Dad is an all time wfu great. It is a no brainer.
 
As far as I'm aware, teams take top 100 recruits all the time solely for their own contributions.

Thanks Wrangor. So then he's regarded as a legit Top 100 kid. And due to his Dad, likely will stick for 4 years giving us stability at the SG position thru 1 and done teammates ?

This is a unique case. You can't ignore it.

Right, it also has other positive benefits. My point was Brandon can play basketball in his own regard and it is merely helpful to us that he could bring others with him. If he doesn't, he's still a top 60 player in the country and a solid signing.

I haven't seen the new rankings.

Brandon can play and he's a bit of a late bloomer (if you can say that about a 16yo). We're lucky to have him.
 
There should be nothing but excitement from signing Brandon

Go deacs!!!
