Not that the two things are related, but if you can get a scorer like this kid is said to be, then you do it. Your problems at center reduce a lot if there are more good scorers. |

Taking a look at this potential roster with Harvey. We don't have a bunch of projects that had a couple offers from small power 5 schools.
Jarron - top 50 recruit that could start for anyone in the country. Jaevin - was headed to Michigan Harvey - was likely headed to Kansas Williams - Top 125 player and POY in NYC Add high level role players and we can do some real damage. We have high level talent this year. To me, it is all about how fast we can adjust to the style of play. |

Also the girls could have been in the same grade. He was 16 and the girls was 15. Look, it’s never great to have these issues but to think this isn’t part of today’s society is naive Last edited by cincyguy13; 06-18-2019 at 06:08 AM. |

Why would height matter when Laquill was most likely never going to see the floor? Harvey can most likely come in and contribute right away. I think it may be better for both parties that he go to a smaller school and potentially be one of the best players on that team, hopefully he can get a waiver or something and play right away. We are basically renting a 7 footer for a year in Scorolla, then we have Scott, Diarra and Prince who can play in the post as well. Laquill most likely was behind all 4 of them.
I am not defending Harvey in any way because he absolutely made a poor choice...… but remember when you were 16, most 16 year old boys are dumb, immature, think they know everything and make mistakes. That's not an excuse for what he did but mistakes happen and if the board decides he can't come because of that so be it. Also he is still available because he has reclassified twice, he was in 2019 class than reclassified to 2020 and then found out he couldn't do another year at prep school so he reclassified back to 2019 when most schools were already done recruiting. |

Well, why do you say that? In my assertion Curtis is pretty well physically developed for his age, has good size in him and a good shot. Unfortunately for him unlike Harvey he was unable to splash on the AAU seen and possibly doesn't have the extra fill dummies to run through and training facilities to take advantage of but it looked like he did a pretty nice job asserting himself this yr into being an Ohio Mr. Basketball which holds probably more considerable talent than the state of Kansas. With that being said Harvey looks like a good player but don't Just judge based off rankings. The mindstate of these two players and how they respond to thier caoching will ultimately be the deciding factor in how they develop and yes we will see

We can run with a PG two wings a stretch 4 and a 5. No PG three wings and two stretch 4's. A PG three wings and a stretch 4. A PG three wings and a 5. No PG three wings a stretch 4 and a 5. Of course we will see many different options but I am interested what shapes up as his go to starting/best lineup. Some will depend on matchups as well but he will settle in on his most productive lineup. Based on his recruiting so far I don't think Scott and Diara are his prototype for the 5 spot but they might be the best option(s) for this year. Who knows? Based on his recruiting of Saunders I now think McNeal could see a little more time than I suspected to push pace. So many questions right now but it's a little easier to see now what he is looking for in future lineups. |
