Kid was getting a lot of big offers for football but he wants to play hoops in college. He's a 6'5 PF. Nice kid but not a BE level PF at all. We need a real big. Pass.
Really like his intangibles and leadership qualities, hope the staff locks him up along with another local star Griffin soon. They then shoot for the moon and compete for Brown to close out the class.

We need a real big. Pass. Sure, Big time talent would be nice. Maybe not an option. We have plenty of length, having a guy who can win an arm wrestling match could come in handy. Maybe he develops and helps us down the road.
This is the kind of kid you take a chance in. Not some pansy from Europe.

Serious question. He's a really good HS player and these are some of the best Bosco teams in their bball history over his last few years. But he's a mid major college player. I just don't want to see the staff using a really precious scholly on an undersized PF who is solid but not much more.

You just named one that hasn't played in 15 years or whatever. Furthermore, both those guys were high rated players coming out of HS. Earlington is not. Marginal BE level player at best. Staff should be setting sights higher.

DJ Kennedy was 6’5 and excelled at the 4 spot.

DJ Kennedy was 6’5 and excelled at the 4 spot. Bad comparison. Don’t think he is anything like those 3.is he anthony Glover good? Lamont Middleton good? If yes to either I am fine with it. If he is Dexter gray 2.0 we should pass.

He was listed as 6’6 Brownlee was also a wing . He was athletic. Close to 6’7 . Don’t really remember his defense. Christina looked the part. The 3 guys I mentioned were all short PF’s. Probably before your time.
