'12 Fl SG Shaun Smith (Offer)

Shooting guard
Jacksonville, Florida
Arlington Country Day
AAU: Heart and Hustle
Ht:6'3"
Wt:175 lbs
Class:2012 (High School)

Shaun is another very athletic player. He's really good when attacking from the wing. Did I say he is very athletic? Going to be very hard to get him away from Florida State. Leonard Hamilton has done an excellent job recruiting him. Ole Miss is making a push as well.

Lists K. State and Florida State as his leaders. Rivals has said he will jump into the revised 150 when released. I believe this kid is a long shot for Cincinnati based on the relationship he has built with Leonard Hamilton.

Good question.

I don't have the answer, but he may not have to make a jump if a BCS offer is extended to UCF in the next year or two.

I, for one, would welcome UCF into the BE with open arms.

UCF is a comer. They would be a great addition recruiting wise. We saw how many 'SEC' area kids BJ went after in his first year. Didn't land many, but he laid the foundation.

UCF has come crashing back to earth and is 1-4 in CUSA. They wouldn't be much better than 10-12 in basketball yearly...they do however provide a football program with great potential if they were to join a BCS conference.

I for one would have no issue with adding Central Florida. I also would have no issue dropping two schools with the addition of TCU and UCF. Two football/basketball schools added would be a good thing but I don't want 18 schools.

Oh, here's a link to the verbal:

RT @DaveTelep: Central Florida with the 2012 commitment of standout guard Shawn Smith.

Smith is no longer committed to UCF.

He is one of a handful of 2012 guys UC is going after that are studs- lots of very good options out there right now.

How many ships available for 2012? Only two for now with Yancy and Dion? Three if no one is signed in the late period (which is unlikely)?
