Basketball recruiting who do we look good on?

[forrest city joe]

the things we must get is a shooting PG. and some skilled big guys.a bigtime 2G who can shoot it would not hurt either.

We appear to be looking good on Stan Simpson 6-9 PF/C out of Chicago, Clarence Trent 6-7 PF out of Washington, 6-8 Terrance Henry SF out of Lousiana.  There is a juco guy with Arkansas connection 6-7 F, but can't remember his name right now.  I think we still have a prayer on Rotnei Clarke I think.

[simpleman]

I'd say we look good on Levan Patsatsia.

seems like i saw that Trent was reclassifed for the 09 class.
A class of Simpson, Henry, Dequan Jones, Terrico White, and Clarke would be unreal.

Thanks guys. i relly think Pel can bring this program back. but it starts with recruiting. great players make great coaches.

[gohawgsgo]

Your right about Trent and I forgot about the Memphis kid.  I hope he pulls the trigger soon.  If we can win this year, I think Pel will take off.  You are right Joe recruiting is essential.  I think that style will help recruiting.

He is a hog, and going to be go one.

[Conway Cool Daddy]

Are we looking at any guys to replace the loss of Townes and Hill after this year?
A true center kind of player.

I don't expect Washington o be around his senior season, so it's a must in this class. JMHO

Disagree, Corey Beck wasn't a big time shooter and he got a ring.  We need a pg that doesn't turn the ball over, plays good d, and can avg. 6pts and 8 dimes a game.  Get a shooting guard and small forward that can shoot.

PG's that want to score are usually not very successful in terms of team. there are a few, don't get me wrong, but scoring PG's usually end up hurting the team.

I don't think you can make this generalization.  I can't think of one NBA point guard who could not score at will in college (or high school for some of them).  I agree that scoring point guards can be counter productive, but I don't think there is any cause and effect relationship there.  Stephon Maurberry (sp?) would be just as disruptive to his team as a 2 guard as he is being a pg.

T. Henry has narrowed his list to five. Arkansas, Mississippi, Kansas, Kentucky, and Miami. He would be a very good pick up for us.

John Stockton

Oscar Robertson

I can name point guards too (though mine are considerably better).  Whats the point?

Remember Lee mayberry? your PG must able to shoot the ball.

that's not accurate at all. didn't beck's team go to 2 championships to LM's 0?

what is our chances with TH? i think he is the EXACT type of PF we need.

also, does getting Patsa hurt our chances with terrico white? i wouldn't think so b/c weems will be gone next year. i hope we get him. we need all the athletes we can get. i thought TW was close to comitting last week.
