[BleedOrange]

How much impact will Wiggins have this year? Do you actually see him starting in front of Gomez and Maybelen?

[Hdog]

Two NE Ohio players [Garfield Heights] rumored to be going elsewhere:

I was hoping our Cleveland area connections with Stacey and SKR would help us with these two kids

[fredthefalcon]

Just an update to Globe's list. Carson Williams committed recently to Northern Ky. Two new 2016 offers were made for 6'6" SG Jax Levitch from Louisville and 6'6" SF Amare Wesson out of Columbus Westerville South. Levitch has offers from mid-majors mostly including Toledo and N. Ky. Wesson has some high mid majors like George Mason as well Toledo and the ubiquitous N. Kentucky.

I updated with changes. Thanks for the inputs.

[Class of 61]

Saw both Garfield kids play against St. Eds last yr. Jackson looked to be the better player.

Just saw that Kipper Nichols from Eds was released from his scholaship, allegedly some family issues. This kid is a REAL player! Might be worth it to after him...closer to home than Tulane was.

He is #15 in white. Not many highlights - a nice shot around the rim - a couple of blocks - but it does say he was the DCIAA player of the year [DC public school league]. There is an interview with him later in the video

It says on twitter he will make decision this Friday, Nov. 13th. between UCF, Eastern Kentucky & Bowling Green.

It looks like Huger's offense will need a top flight point guard. If this rating is legit on Gist, would this be the highest rated recruit we've had in a number of years?
