I'm pretty/rather stoked about recruiting this guy, funny thing is, is that I'll probably never coach him, as I plan to 'shirt him and don't plan on being back next year, pretty much come hell or high water.  I don't know the high-high or low-high BS...but what do you think?  B prestige D2 fwiw...

Ill be straight up and say it depends on how high they are lol

Lol I didn't scout him and I've never done pot, but hopefully this guy is high as a guy on a big bag of bountifully budded weed.

that looks like a slightly above average role player with weak offense and mediocre defense

Unless those high potentials are really, REALLY high/highs, I'd honestly say that he's nothing to write home about.  I'm pretty much in agreement with Dacj on this one.  He's okay, just nothing out of the ordinary. 

Agree with the guys above me.  Even if those are super high-high, he'll never be much of a scorer, he's not a great handler, and he won't have overwhelming ath/spd unless both of those have gigantic improvements.

I think you're just enamored with the sheer amount of highs this guy has. I wouldn't take him on my D2 team (especially since we run FCP), but even with another defense I don't think he's that good of a player.

If he's high-high in ATH and REB, he has the potential to be a pretty solid SF. But his BH is too low to be a good PG, and while his stats seem to lend themselves to the SG position, I want all my SGs, at minimum, to either be able to shoot or defend. And he'll be a bad shooter and average defender.

The ATH was what grabbed my eye.  Depending on the level of "High" he would be a decent redshirt prospect and a backup player.  I don't value PER/LP over ATH/DEF but if he can't score, he's going to be a weak spot in your rotation.

ethan (hi btw) I agree except: IF he were a 70+ (higher the better obviously) defender he wouldn't be much of a liability as long as there are a couple other scorers on the court with him...
