Ron Roberts - F - St. Peters Prep - Jersey City, NJ - ST. JOSEPH'S

Completely meaningless video of him dunking:

Ronald Roberts (R.Dot) dunking

Nice Dominique windmill to end it.

Ron Roberts has not yet completed the NCAA-mandated requirements for freshman participation. Kelly said his grade-point average has him in good academic standing at the school, but that he won't take the college boards for the first time until next month.

Don't most kids take 1st SAT's in spring of Jr year ? If he doesn't
qualify & goes to prep, does that release both him & school from LOI ?

Since next year he would see almost no time at the 3/4,
It would work great actually if he went prep, became our
1st '11, and we picked up a 1 or true 4/5 this spring.

he looks like he needs to put on some weight to play power forward where we will need him after our entire front court graduates. we look pretty #$%^ed after our juniors are gone.

We're not a good team now, so how much worse can it get?  After watching the first 3 games of the year, I am having doubts whether this team will get over the 15 or 16 win mark.  Siena, Temple, Duke, and Georgia will all most likely take care of business against us and Norm will be giving us his typical spin, "Well, this is what happens when you schedule tough, tough teams on your non-conference schedule.  But it was an important learning experience for all of these guys and I feel we'll be better off for it come time for Big East play."

Roberts with 22 and 15 in St. Peter's last game:

Roberts had 19 points and 17 rebounds last night in a loss to patterson Catholic, a close game until the fourth quarter. Roberts can play and has tremendous upside!

Miles Davis added 17.

This kid a 3 or 4?

Miles Davis added 17.

See blog above from an old friend of mine, who is a hoops junkie and knows the game. His in person view of Ron Roberts coincides with opinions of other folks I respect in the game.

 "I am predicting even without all the super ratings, this kid will see NBA minutes one day."

I know this is petty but St Peter's Prep is in Jersey City not New Brunswick as the title states.

You are correct, sir.  Made the change in the first post.

I caught High School Weekly on MSG last night, and Mike Quick had highlights of the PC/St Peters game. There were four plays from Roberts. One was a monster put back dunk off a missed 3 pointer, another was a off board and stickback dunk, another dunk and the last one he beat his man off the dribble baseline and made a fingerroll layup.

Tough to judge from that but he looked VERY athletic and has a good frame

The St. Peter's Prep vs. St. Anthony's game will be airing on MSG Sunday, Jan. 17 at   9:00 a.m.

A previous High School Weekly is online.  Tom Konchalski talks St. Peter's Prep at the 5 minute mark of part 2 and there is 2 quick clips of Roberts.
