I mean I don't think the #24 ranked PF should get 4*'s also I haven't been all that impressed with him.

people say he's not slow and goofy, but his tape makes him look very much so.

I read a few interesting updates on John Wall that, if true, means we have literally NO chance at him and it's a foregone conclusion he's headed to Memphis. I read it on a few scout boards (kansas and state for example).

Google "worldwide wes"

^related to small white dukies, duke's polish guy was mvp at the capitol classic...

Quote :
"Czyz led all scorers with 23 points, on 9-14 shooting from the field, as the U.S. All-Stars defeated the Capital All-Stars 123 - 85 at the Comcast Center. Czyz also grabbed 9 rebounds and went 5 - 5 from the free throw line. Czyz, a native of Poland, is a 6'7" 235 pound power forward who played his high school ball for Reno High School in Nevada."

We are in it for 5* C DaShonte Riley. Scout lists him as the #5 ranked center and Rivals has him as the #2 ranked center and #13 in their overall Top 100 in the 2009 class. I believe he goes to the same school that Clayton Beard went to. Apparently we are in his Top 5.

I wonder if we have any interest in Dougie Wiggins, who is transferring from UConn. He hasn't mentioned any lists but did hint a few ACC schools are interested in him. He'd be a perfect fit here basketball wise IMO, though he does have some baggage (underage drinking ticket at UConn and was told to not report to a few practices over this summer).

He's a really quick point who plays under control and can knock down shots. He'd be an instant upgrade over any 1 we have on the roster right now and has high major experience.

Lets not kid ourselves, he's not the only college kid drinking underage. that doesn't mean shit. UConn had to do something about it so they told him not to report. there are no character issues with this guy. Underage drinking is part of college, everyone does it, he was just unlucky to get caught, i know plenty of people in his situation. most just aren't D1 athletes

well there ya go, it's part of the job. They should know they are held to a higher standard than everyone else. You could say the same thing about Bill Clinton . . . he's not the only guy to have an affair, most just aren't President of the US.

yeah, i think its pretty much a done deal that he will be heading to Memphis. Lots of packpriders are echoing the same thing. Says he has been in a lot of contact with Calamari and with Rose going pro...we dont have a chance

AJ Price is coming back and is the starter obviously since he was an All America and they have a McD's AA that should see significant minutes at the point in Kemba Walker. Plus Craig Austrie is a SR and probably will see some minutes at PG too. UConn really got hampered by needing to recruit 9 players after all 5 of their starters and a 6th man got drafted after the '06 season so they are having a few transfers from guys who just didn't get all the way up the depth chart.

I actually really liked Wiggins. My guess is he'll end up at an A-10 school like UMass though because it's close to home (Hartford) but I just think he'd be a good fit here...

*** I'm pretty sure Tyreke Evans committed to Memphis yesterday...

^He is a guy that has 100's of connections in NCAA and NBA hoops. He doesn't really work for anyone but he is omnipresent at any hoops event. He has connections with HS players, NCAA players and coaches, and of course the NBA. There are a couple of stories written about him but he does all of his interviews off the record

For the record, Tyree Evans has been arrested for stuff like statutory rape, assault of a child, and multiple underage drinking citations.

Tyreke Evans left his aunt's house with his cousins in a Expedition he was driving. As they were pulling away, his cousin capped some dude and killed him- Tyreke drove off but cooperated with police later and wasn't charged. He drove off because supposedly the dude his cousin capped pulled first.

tyree evans was oriiginally in the 2004 class recruited by bob huggins at cincy. after all his issues and huggins' move to k-state, evans wanted to follow him there but k-state didn't want him. HUGGINS, of all people, thought he was too much of a thug. all you need to know.

"William "Wes" Wesley (b. August 14, 1964 in Camden, New Jersey) is a noted figure around the National Basketball Association.

He is associated with many of the league's most prominent players, including Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Wesley, who is also known as "Worldwide Wes" or simply "Wes" (no last name), is a longtime client of Iverson and James's agent, the Philadelphia attorney Leon Rose."

So The Wolfpacker site has a story about 2010 point guard Phil Taylor being interested in us. Taylor has visited Raleigh twice in the last four months and it says he watches State any chance he gets. Taylor is a former New York City native, but now resides in Marietta, Georgia, and attends the same high school that JJ Hickson attended, Wheeler High. Taylor also plays on the AAU team World Wide Renegades, which Hickson also played on. Taylor is 5'9" and 160 lbs. Since he's only a sophmore I'd expect him to grow some more like most guys do.

Combining the Rivals and Scout profiles, here are the schools listed as showing interest.

Clemson
Florida State
Michigan State
NC State
Georgia
Georgia Tech
Auburn
Xavier

From PP

Guys and Gals, Lorenzo Brown is callin for us..

"It would be pretty wild if NC State fans came to see my games [at Gibbons], and that would definitely impress me," Brown said. "Coach Lowe was telling me about Glaxo [on Wednesday], and how Word of God is the defending champs. That would be fun to play them."

He's comin down with his AAU team to the Gibbons Tourny May 24th-26th. Lets show em what we are about

Leslie already gave a verbal, but that can change. I think he'll be here.

Brown is a better bet than Wall IMO. Frankly, after what I've read of Wall I really don't want him. Kid was kicked off of the Broughton team, has an entourage and is involved with Worldwide Wes.

No thanks...

oh i'm well aware that leslie verballed, but i don't think he's going to keep it. not unless we show some real improvement.

he's doing nothing but getting his act together and getting better at basketball, and schools are going to come after him until the day he signs.

whoa, save the chit chat for chit chat.

the least we can do for all of them is show up and act like we care about our basketball program. i'd be a shame if they played in Raleigh, of all places, and had no support from the school that arguably wants and needs them the most.
