Gathers is the first.
G-D willing KA will be the second.
I will be thrilled with those 2 and we will go from there.

I'd also be thrilled with those two, north.  Those two were and are the kids the staff has really been targeting from the 2012 class.  I'm also hoping we can land Reinhardt, to go along with Gathers and (possibly) Anderson.

What a recruiting haul that would be for our Johnnies!

If we got Gathers and Kyle would it be possible that those 2 alone make our recruiting class top 5 again ?

Top 5 might be tough but definitely Top 10.

The ones I'd love to see who I think we have a great shot at:

1) Ricardo "the Bayou Bull" Gathers- (already committed) versatile, powerful rebounder and pure PF.

2) Kyle Anderson-  great height, vision, passing and everything else.  Big PG which we need and big day sept 20th

3) Katin Reinhardt- love his passing, height and shooting ability.  Also truly versatile.  With connections to Pelle, Gathers and former NJ resident, I think we have a real good shot for some reason.

That would give us a tremendously skilled and balances class with 3 top 45 players, including a top 10 guy.

Basically, the list I mentioned above.  Give me that bunch and we'll certainly have a top 10, if not a top 5, recruiting class.

I know Reinhardt can and maybe will play point and is a good shooter. If we got KA who will play point, would everyone still prefer reinhardt over a guy like Amille Jefferson who it seems is ranked higher and might have more potential?

What a potential good dilemma- Katin or Amile! If you gain either one, we will be living the good life.  Both have tremendous skills.  In 50 days we will know KA's decision, which could have a bearing on which player, Katin or Amile, Coach will then focus on.  I guess both are being sought to fill the DP opening.

I agree- wow the great problems we have now !

With the addition of Gathers we have a well balanced roster for 2012.
By me- both seem  top 50... In Lavin & staff I trust.
They have seen a lot of them live the last few weeks.

Do we know if both Katin & Amile have been offered ?
Have either been on campus yet ?

(And of course, this problem assumes all of current 10 are back next year.)

Katin was offered.  Today there was Amile update but I don't recall the exact wording if he was offered.

Don't recall either being on campus.

This is my dream class as well...although after getting KA any other guy would pretty much be gravy!

Remi Barry and Ron Roberts!  Oh wait, fast forward to this recruiting season!  Remember though, all the activity to bring Remi on board.  Times are a changing! Or have changed!

We are recruiting top players from all of the country, including the Metro area (Patterson, NJ, or as I like to call it, Costelloville, NJ).  What I like even better is they all seem to be recruiting us as well.

I think the decision of KA on 9/20 will set in motion the rest of our recruiting class, or the last spot.  "When" (or "If" to placate some of the posters) KA joins the Red Storm family on 9/20, who then fills the last spot?  I personally would like to see Katin come on board, but Amile would make me smile as well.
