Roberts goes for 30 and Davis 29 inlatest effort. Note blazing 3 point shooting over recent games by Davis.

18 and 9 in latest game in limited action. His team is playing well. My coaching friend continues to feel Ron is potentailly a pro with the right coaching and development. A big "If" with our current staff.

Roberts had monster game against reasonable competition, 26 points, 11 rebounds and 4 blocks. Note he gets to the line a lot and makes them. Hopefully he will have a good coach and a chance to meet his potential.

If there is a coaching change at St. John's, the first call the guy makes should be to this kid.

He has the potential to be the best recruit St. John's has had in a very long time. If he hadn't signed early he would be getting chased down by much higher level programs.

He doesn't appear to be considered a top prospect. The only hope we have is a sleeper. Do you know if those rankings change at some point before next season?

Rankings or no rankings, this kid is going to be special player.

You both used the quote button improperly so I edited both of your posts to be read correctly.

Poison,

Believe me this kid is going to be a big time BE player. A member of the NJ AAU circuit personally told me the kid has it all. Forget the current rankings. If someone knows Bob Hurley, speak to him as well.

Hey guys, I don't doubt either of you. I just hope you're right.
I appreciate all the info.

In the video, Poison. He said that he's going to be a very good Big East player and St. John's did very well locking him up early as only A-10 schools were involved. He played JV basketball at Bayonne and now he's Varsity for St. Peter's prep so he's a quick learner.

Ron Roberts is likely the best recruit Norm has signed in his tenure.  Only comparable one is Justin Burrell, and if Justin was under the right coach, he would be better.  Let's hope Roberts continues to develop.

Less than a fortnight ago, Ron Roberts, who is the sole Saint John’s commitment for the class of 2010, enjoyed the best performance of his young career in an 84-81 win against national power Oak Hill at the Prime Time Shootout. The St. Peter’s Prep forward scored twenty-two points, including a crucial free throw with seconds remaining to force the Warriors of Oak Hill into shooting a three-pointer at the buzzer. After the big game, Roberts spoke with Johnny Jungle about the win, his decision to come to St. John’s and what talents he can bring to the program.

Ron, you should still come here, and be proud of your choice.
The administration here might not be very smart, but if they do finally realize that a change must be made, rest assured the next guy couldn't possibly be worse.

I hope Ron decides to stay even when Norm is fired because he seems like a really good recruit and he will be needed badly after everyone leaves next year. He will be better off with a new coaching staff, I hope he realizes this.
