3-4, 4-3, who cares. That kid can play day 1 here.

I'd like to see us get this guy down for a visit. His name should be Marcus GoHardison based off those clips.

I have my #1 want JUCO-wise right here.

As was pointed out, this is exactly what we need.

Why is the staff just now getting on this kid at a position of need

JUCO guys are really difficult to evaluate, and not just from a physical standpoint.

I think it's more that it's difficult to get them into school. This is a kid that would be a great fit IMO and may give us a chance to actually play some 3-4.

Exactly. So in order to spend time recruiting a kid hard, you have to not only figure out if he can play or not but also if he is worth spending the time on...seems to me like it is just a longer process identifying these kids for a school like Miami. You can see the Kansas States and Ole Misses of the world on these kids earlier because the gamble of spending time on their recruitment isn't as big. Or so I would believe.

A lot of CCs are direct academic pipelines to state universities so there's no guesswork involved as to what classes will or won't count. You spend 2 yrs at a CC, do OK, and you automatically get accepted at X state univ.
