Wow, thanks! So, questions of competition, etc., aside, his numbers more than stack up. In fact, they're better than the others'.

Yep. I expect him to be in the 100-125 range. People forget thats all Day-Day is right now. Rankings really are a crap shoot between 100-150 anyway.

Unlike the sure thing that Delco Rowley was at approx #60 to 80?

I just want an another Andre Hutson...someone who can play defense and score with their back to the basket down low...

Rankings are a crapshoot in general.

And why do you keep calling him Day-Day?

Mr. Basketball in the state of Ohio.

He was drafted by the bucks in 01' and is a multi time all star in Europe and In my opinion the best C we've ever had.

They don't grow on trees.

Does the Sherm have a game similar to Kevin Love?

[Donnyrotten]

I would settle for a kid like Coleman that has been at Northern Iowa(he was probably a senior this year.Undersized to play in the post to be sure...but a very savvy guy who without a doubt knew what to do with the ball when he got it.
Give me a couple of 6'6 or 6'7 guys who can play any day of the week over projects that may or may not ever develope(this isnt intended at our new recruit)

Coleman was probably ranked way down in the recruit rankings,but was a stud right away on a real,real good UNI team about 4 years ago.We need instant difference makers,maybe this new recruit fits the bill...i hope so

From a statistical perspective, size does matter in college basketball -- more so on defense than on offense, and more so at center and power forward than at small forward and guard. Ken Pomeroy, a stat guru for Basketball Prospectus, computed the average height for all 341 Division I teams and found a weak correlation with offensive efficiency (points scored per possession, adjusted for competition) and a slightly stronger one with defensive efficiency (points allowed per possession). But when he isolated what he called Effective Height -- the height of a team's center and power forward, i.e., the tallest 40% of a team's minutes played -- he found stronger correlations on offense and especially on defense, most of all in blocked shots, field-goal-percentage defense and defensive efficiency.
Pomeroy's conclusions: Having tall guards isn't that important, but there's ample reason for coaches to scour the world for exceptional big men -- Thabeet is Tanzanian, while 6' 11" Vanderbilt center A.J. Ogilvy is Australian -- or to invest time in a project such as Hibbert, whom former Georgetown coach John Thompson Jr. nicknamed the Big Stiff as a freshman before rechristening him Stiff No More.

It is a compilation and thus IMO accurate compared to any 1 or 2 rankings. Besides Gibbons had Torbert and Blanchard as the #1 players in the country. ESPN is notoriously wrong, Telep is pretty good.

Gibbons had Davis #1 in the country too.

Of course Gatorade player of the year was wrong with both Blanchard and KT.

Hopefully he can ball.His stats sure look impressive as a junior

Are you from Coldwater/Marshall area? People don't usually quote those cities unless they are.
