Reaves seems very similar to Nunez imo. I’m not crazy about adding him to the roster. Like others, I would prefer a couple of the 19’s we are in on. Specifically Carton and Wilson.
If Maxey commits today…probably have to pass on Reaves.
It is funny, it almost seems like he was Wichita State’s Jordan Poole last year. Made a lot of plays, but also clear his best basketball was ahead of him.
I know what he could be here should be primarily based off what he’s shown in college(pretty much just a shooter) but I watched some high school film and he showed some really good off the bounce and passing ability. Certainly more ability in those areas than past shooter type recruits like vogrich, Douglass, Nunez, Robinson did. He’s also a much better athlete than I thought, he was dunking over guys.
I would definitely be on board with adding Reaves (we need knock down shooters) if you told me we could still add two 2019 recruits in the fall. I was assuming we would sign 2 in the fall (over signing by 1 with the assumption Matthews is gone after next yr) and then see what happens in the spring with further attrition. But, wouldn’t it be surprising to add Reaves now and then two recruits in the fall thus going over by 2?
Listening to Sam Webb this morning on his radio show, he thinks along with his colleagues at Scout that Michigan leads for Wilson and Carton. He wasn’t saying they were locks or anything like that but it sounds like we’ve got a real shot to land both. I think that would be a perfect fall signing and I would hate to see us miss out on that. I know there are quite a few kids we all thought we were going land and it didn’t end up happening but hopefully this year it works out that they can land their top targets.
Doubtful given the timing. Wilson will be on campus 1 day prior (I believe) but Carton won’t be until summer, and Carton is the more direct competition for the scholarship.
That would be nice if we could land Wilson this weekend. Sam said on his recruiting roundup yesterday that Wilson’s top 3 were Michigan, Baylor and Marquette. I feel better about our chances going up against those schools than Kansas, North Carolina and the Kentucky’s of the world.
