Wes must have great relationships with his guys. Hensley came in as a 4 star, didn't really play, and still followed Wes.
We had trouble retaining guys that played a lot at the end of the year. |

The concern for me right now is we have no proven rebounder. No one on our current roster has an OReb rate above 6.

Hensley is a high rated recruit and for good reason I think. He has very good (not great) athleticism and balls skills. Higher rated than Tari was. Stretch 4 or undersized 5 depending on the situation. Probably JD's backup for the most part next year.
But yes, we need some elite athletes who can go get it on the boards. Koval/Lakhin is not a center duo that seems likely to give us a high percentage of rebounds. If we have to live with them for a year while we develop somebody else, so be it. But we need to get that somebody else on the roster. |

Where is Hensley's 4 star rating coming from? Verbalcommits has him as a 2 star. Rivals says 3 with a 149 ranking, but I wonder if that's a default placeholder value or something like that. On his rankings history graph it shows "NR" throughout, with 149 being the lowest ranking just above NR. I'm confused how he could be so highly regarded and only have one p5 offer and no interest from any other traditional basketball school.
I don't really care about his ranking if Wes is confident in his potential. I just want to know why everyone is saying he was highly rated. |
