2015 Recruiting

[Vurbel]

I hope we can keep this kid in the fold with the new staff....this kid has the look of the best kid PH signed.

Two words: Shevon Thompson.

 

[Dawgs99]

I'm talking about on paper....nobody knows how these kids will pan out once they arrive, but I don't think anyone PH signed had Ahmad's numbers or accolades.

How about Erik Copes?

 

[Dawgs99]

I don't count him because he was already committed to GW untill Hobbs get the axe, so PH really didn't spend much time recruiting him and also becasue of the Roland Houston hiring, if we don;t hire Roland we don't get Copes. So in my mind its unfair to give PH credit for recruiting Copes.

Lockett? He was a 3 star and averaged 18 pts, 9 rebounds, 4 assists a game his senior year.

 

[Dawgs99]

Perhaps....Lockett didn't have the offers that Gilbert has though.....either way it seems like he's gone anyway. On to the next one.

OMG! We actually have offered a SG!!! Imagine that!

Looks quick and is fearless in driving to the rim

A name mentioned on this board, former Dartmouth SG Alex Mitola, is transferring to GW and will be immediately eligible in 2015-16.

Looks like Pitino is looking for some more CAA transfer magic.

 

[GMUJETS24]

Kameron Murrell is taking his visit today.

Kameron Murrell is taking his visit today.

It's nice to see some progress on 2015 recruits. Hopefully the visit goes well.

 

[dr. gunnie]

I would be shocked if Kameron is not a Patriot next year.

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

I would be shocked if Kameron is not a Patriot next year.

I don't know...Robert Morris is beautiful this time of year. Less soot there than there used to be...

 

[99 Patriot]

I would be shocked if Kameron is not a Patriot next year.

Do you see that as a positive?

 

[A.-Siegfried]

Lots of guys from IMG in this week.....

 

[gmutom]

Do you see that as a positive?

I have to admit I'm not impressed with Murrell's lack of offers, but he does have a really smooth shooting stroke and a good handle. Given our lack of perimeter shooters on this roster, I think Murrell could fill a big void for us (especially with Gilbert heading to Eskimo country).

He and Holloway are both around 6-feet, so Paulsen would really need to be creative to get them open looks.

You can only tell so much from some video clips, but he doesn't really seem to have blowby speed and his jumper has very little lift to it with a pretty low release point. I'd be surprised if he winds up being a difference maker, but am hoping that is the case as DP knows about 1000X more about basketball than I do.
