Well this came out of no where.
He's good. Plays with really high energy and pretty good athlete. I thought for sure he was gonna be Arizona State bound when Hurley put the full court press on him. I know he has a lot of interest in Kansas and Stanford too. He was an invite to Under Armour All-America camp and he played pretty well.

It would be nice to land this kid but from what I saw on Twitter seems like he is a Kansas lean. I have faith in Coach Mullin . We are in his in top 5. Hope he is not just looking at us a free trip to NYC.

We will have to see but they have a huge log jam at KU at those spots right now. They just grabbed Bragg and Diallo for 2015 and Lightfoot not in the top 100 would be tough getting PT at KU. Hope we can pull a coup and land him. Kid is a real springy athlete, good hands and safe-type player.
-
Freudenberg, Lightfoot, Ahmed, 3 SFs, how many would we take (obviously if all are willing to come) and what is the pecking order?
-
All 3. Lightfoot is a 4.
-
All 3. Lightfoot is a 4.
Gray is correct... Freudenberg and Ahmed are 3's. Yakwe and Lightfoot 4's. Would be no issue at all. As I said before, KU brought in 2 PF's in the 15' class alone and both 5 star kids. This kid would be great fit for us.

Well that would fill up our schollie limit. No backup center or 2 guard but I guess some guys would be versatile enough to move around.
-
Owens would be the backup center.

. Exactly. Sima and Owens at 5. 2-guard Ellison and Mussini. I have to look at scholarship chart, but aren't we still short and lose balamou, mvouika, Durand? Either way, will have enough ahips

I think we would be really well balanced with those 3 and ponds joining the returning roster for next season. Wouldn't Owens and Ponds cover C and SG?

Lovett, Mussini, ponds and Ellison. Looks like a very talented backcourt.
-
Owens would be the backup center.
Always forget about him although he is rather thin to play center, hope he is building some strength.

Thin, but he and Sima are both really long and athletic. He's super thin, but he has a redshirt year to work on his body and strength.

Yup. Roster would be 1 alpha dog primary scorer away from being very dangerous...

Ponds is a hella scorer. So is Lovett and Mussini and we haven't seen all the potential frontcourt guys.
-
Don't forget about Darien Williams, in a couple of months he'll be in every conversation.
Lightfoot's official is in two weeks. This staff moves in such a calculated, precise manner when it comes to recruiting, very impressive early on.

Those guys are a dynamic supporting cast of a final four team.

Was hopeful we had a shot to land this guy, but then he mentioned facilities. Then he said Zona, Kansas, and Stanford were recruiting him.
-
I think Kansas and Arizona will both aim higher than Lightfoot.
-
I think this kid would be an all big east player as an upperclassmen. Physical, athletic, long.
-

I think if you want a comparison for his Big East projection he'd be comparable to what Nate Lubick was to Georgetown. Won't light it up the box score but will be a solid player who does the little hustle things.
-
If we get him, and his career turns out like Lubick's, I'd be pretty pleased. As you said, Dave, that guy did all of the little, underrated things that help teams win. And he was a major thorn in our side almost every time we played them.
-
Lubick is the white kid who used to abuse Obekpa?
-
Yup Tony - he used to kill pretty everyone. Could pass, rebound, made hustle players, scored when needed, etc.
-
This kid is much, much more athletic than Lubin was. I liked Lubick though. He always got it done against us.
-

Yup. Obepka made Lubick look like Bill Walton
-
Yup Tony - he used to kill pretty everyone. Could pass, rebound, made hustle players, scored when needed, etc.
Personally, I hope he's better than Lubick. Lubick was mediocre, IMO. Basically, was the same player the day he stepped on campus 'til the day he left Georgetown.

You know I'm NO fan of the Hoyas, but I'll give any of their players credit when it's due. IMO, Lubick was a mediocre player. I hope if we land Lightfoot, then he'll give us more than Nate Lubick gave Georgetown.

Lubick owned us his senior year, we owned him the other three.

This kid's an athletic freak. Lubick was a strong interior player with limited athleticism. No comparison between the two. I liked Lubick's toughness and game (except for the fact that he played for Gtown) and he had a productive career but I think Lightfoot's ceiling is higher.

I can go along with this.
-
Lightfoot is obviously a much different player than Lubick. Lubick, at 6'9, was significantly slower and less athletic then Lightfoot. Lightfoot is only 6'7, and is a quicker but undersized power forward with a good jumpshot. Lubick was not an outside shooter. Obviously, a totally different player. Looks like he could even play the three. But having said that, I think his athleticism is getting a little exaggerated. A "freak" athlete implies very few players can jump like him. In the video he was dunking on clearly inferior athletes. This is much easier to do in a game. When Jak played against athletes like that, he could whip it down too. And Jak has mediocre athleticism for an NBA guy. So I wouldn't use the word freak athlete. Would love to get him, though.
-
Hansborough Light.
-
Agree with MJD here. Would I take a Lubick? Yes but I hope this kid would develop further than Lubick.
-
This kid is much, much more athletic than Lubin was. I liked Lubick though. He always got it done against us.
He is a little quicker and can jump higher than Lubick but Lubick was much more instinctive and stronger. I'm not sure where explosive ranks greater than physical in terms of athleticism chart. They are similar players in a sense where there games are based on hustle.
I guess a fairer comparison is Light foot is a poor man's hybrid of Amir Garrett and Nate Lubick.

Lightfoot is a good athlete but by no means a freak. You want a freak look at Malik Monk or Terrence Ferguson. They are freaks.
In the 2016 class I'd rank Lightfoot as a tier 3 big man.
Tier 1- Giles, Bam, Maker
Tier 2- Spellman, Huell, Leaf, Killeya-Jones
Tier 3- Lightfoot...
There is a large gap between Tier 1 + Tier 3 but the gap isn't as big between 2-3. However I'd rank 2016 class as a very dominant guard-wing class.

Not sure where you get Nate Lubick being 6'9 from. He was 6'7 and on a favorable measurement 6'8. He was more wide bodied than Lightfoot which made him more ready from day 1 but also limited his upside.

I don't think we would want a poor man's Amir or Lubick. Would hope he could be at least as good.

-
He reminds me a little bit more of a guy like Eduardo Najera rather than Lubick.
-

I won't curb your enthusiasm. I just think he's good and reserve my stud status for very elite group of players.

I hear you. He will take some time. Don't think he'll shine right out of the gate. I see a kid who is a real solid athlete and has strong hands and feet. He doesn't seem to waste any movements out there. What I like most about him is that he has a presence to him. Think the more he plays and the more coaching he gets he will start to realize his own potential.

Off topic but randomly, you know who didnt? Quentin Richardson. Supposedly Paul Pierce was his host and that weekend started a very long and heated animosity between the two players that lasted through their time in the NBA (with Pierce's teams almost always getting the better of Q's teams, and certainly Q himself).

Ironically, I had the same thought.
Personally, I think it comes down to Arizona and Kansas. If he comes aboard, that'll certainly suffice. But, I'm not expecting to come out on top in this recruitment.

Genuine interest. Pretty low maintenance kid. I wish he had nicer weather on his visit campus would have been lively. I think it's a positive that his parents came along with him.

Agree re the parents. Arizona gets the last visit. Twice actually. Next weekend is the official and then he goes back on the 17th for their intrasquad game, which will features many other recruits too. Gonna be hard to beat.

Won't lie I do see him more as a west coast kid. I think the chances of him coming here are less than likely but certainly possible.

I wonder which is more annoying ( dishonest ) recruits from outside the tri-state area who use the official visits to see America. knowing where they are firmly intent to enroll. or local kids who hold open their choice so as to be able get tickets etc

If you're shopping for a car do you only test drive the car that you originally set out to buy?
-
If the interest is genuine - and I've read and heard that Lightfoot is genuinely interested - I have no issue with him or another kid taking their visit etc. Even if we do not land this kid, there is still benefit to the word being out there that he is considering us, particularly given his location on the West Coast and the caliber of the other schools chasing him. As long as we don't put all our eggs in one basket (or with questionable qualifiers) and recruit accordingly, we will be fine.
-
If I were a recruit, I would definitely visit a large southern school. I like the Loiusville teatment LOL.

“I just can’t wait to get to Arizona. My officials have been really fun though. I just got back from St. John’s over the weekend and the cold weather was actually nice,” he tells PGU.
With this being his final visit a timetable definitely exists and Lightfoot also discusses that with PGU, “I will take a week or two to decide on my future. I just want to relax and do what is right for me.”
“I have a lot of ideas floating around in my head. That’s why I want to wait around two weeks after the visit with the hope to fine-tune these ideas,” after being asked if he’s leaning towards a particular school. “It’s just going to be a hard decision.”

He'd be a solid addition. Perfect timing to replace Williams with a few years of experience as an understudy. That's how the big boys keep their programs rolling.
-
Very big long shot! As I stated before, Coach Mullin and staff did make an impression on Mitchell and his family. That is a good sign for future recruiting.
We stand a much better chance with Bashir and Richard.

@Sports360AZ: Gilbert Christian hoops @Mitchlightfoot has been academically accepted to Stanford. He will announce his college choice at 1pm tomorrow.
-
Stanford makes sense. Not only the academics and high level athletics, but they have another highly rated former AZ prep star on their frontline in Michael Humphrey (kinda reminds me of Lightfoot actually) and I'm sure they're very familiar with each other.
-
I believe it is Kansas. The Stanford acceptance does not mean he is going there. Quirky fact. Of all the major programs that offer athletic scholarships Stanford is the only school that makes their recruits actually fill out a traditional application like a regular student. Which means they need to be accepted thru the standard admissions process. That is why there is some significance to him being accepted.
Unlike Kansas and SJU for example he doesn't have to fill out an application. He passes NCAA muster and their admissions looks at his transcripts and assuming no red flags he's in.
