Scouts.com has us listed as offering to him. Not sure how I feel having a 5'8 PG though.

ESPN has him as an 85, but doesn't have us listed as considering.

Gotta worry about the info. They list him at Lee Academy (same as Maxie Esho), but he doesn't appear on their roster.

I was just wondering if DC Assault had a point guard.

top on the ball defender. Haven't seen that out of many guard recruits that come this way.

I think small, speedy PGs are kind of like the 3 pointer. You live or die by them. At 5'8 can he get to the rim?

Please.....no more 5'8'' PGs.......I've had my fill of them here with DoPainUs and Anderson.

How big was that kid from UCF? He looked pretty good against us, no?

You had better include the percentage figure, otherwise UMASS87 might get mad!!!!!!

AA was definitely projected as a point guard when Bruiser was recruiting him, so I can't blame that one totally on Lappas. The problem with AA and DePina was, as Jack used to say, they are shooting guards trapped in point guard bodies. I belive DePina is the leading 3 pt shooter ever at UMass, percentage wise. So, if this little guy is a true PG, then the comparisons to AA and DePina are not really valid.

p.s. I think AA was a decent defender.

This kid is listed as 5'8", AA was 5'11". Those three inches can make a big difference at this level.
