TSU88 1,070 Report post Posted February 19, 2018 The kid Scott-Grayson has 3 years of eligibility left (like Damas did, I think). Plus, you gotta love the name of the school he currently attends-State Fair Community College. That’s just a great name! Interesting side note-his school is in the same conference as the school J.J. Mathews transferred to, Moberly Area Community College. Matthews’ stats are meh-8 points & 8 boards a game, and he must be injured, because he hasn’t played in a month or so. Several of the outstanding offers appear to be for small forward types, though you’re right, the rest are for guys who are clones of each other-6’2 & 175 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mat1992 2,231 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 Here is a 6-3 guard we've offered from New England, A prep school kid. Nick Timberlake. Very athletic. https://newenglandrecruitingreport.com/recruits/nick-timberlake-2018 https://twitter.com/KUAWildcats/status/968157837489827840 https://twitter.com/nickjtimberlake?lang=en Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TSU88 1,070 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 Interesting. Skerry’s a New England guy, so I assume he’s got connections up there. According to verbal commits, he’s also got offers from Niagara, Hartford & Boston U. Wonder how his game would play in the CAA? If he can shoot 3’s, sign him up!!!

mat1992 2,231 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 Some guys get better, bigger and stronger after going to prep school. He'd have more of chance to play than most freshmen. Dottin did the same thing. Not saying he's the missing link. Just interesting that he's not a juco combo guard but again, you can't just offer one guy. As far as freshmen playing, you aren't going to win a lot of games by starting freshmen but they could be in your rotation. They have to be ready physically and mentally. Solid ballhandling skills, poise, defense, etc. Looks like he has the build to play right away, the athleticism and a pretty good shot. Can he defend? Can he handle the ball under duress? Not turn it over? BB IQ? Who knows but it would be nice to have a 6-3 guard who can shoot. Not saying Betrand can't but he appears to be more of a grinder.

TSU88 1,070 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 We’ve got a boatload of offers out. Now that the season is over, I suspect Skerry will ramp up the recruiting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
