In summary it says he's one of the top shooters in the 2013 class, it also says most people compare him to Aaron Craft.

Hofstra, Albany, Cornell, UNC-Greensboro, NKU, and Vermont all offered. Toledo, Kent, Dayton, and Wright State all showed high interest. Sounds like most people expected all those schools to offer him before he decided to commit to BG.

WHO WAS THE ONE MORE THE LEAD WAS TALKING ABOUT HIM WANTING. Sorry did not realize caps was on...

Lord knows we could use a scorer. After watching some of the dreadful shooting we've had by many players, I'm all for recruiting a guy who can flat out score.

You can have a team with all the athleticism in the world -- and if they can't shoot the ball worth a damn, you'll lose every game.

Guards who may not be the best athletes on the floor, but who can shoot the ball with deadly accuracy can completely change how teams try to defend you -- and because they're concerned about his shooting, it can open up lanes under the basket for the athletic players to take advantage of.

It's why Ohio State's offense with Diebler was very effective and why Jared Sullinger had a much better overall year with Diebler than without him. Without a true scorer to draw interest outside, teams were able to jam up the middle.

The few times I saw BG play a year ago, they were desperately in need of someone who could consistently hit from the outside.

It's a shame this kid isn't coming in this fall; he fills a need.
