Looking for opinions on these two center recruits for my DIII squad. They seem pretty equal to me save for Center 2 has better upside, but I'm afraid he'd be harder to sign than #1 because of competition from human coaches, possibly even DII programs. Interested to hear you guys' thought, thanks!

I think it is very contingent upon the area you are in and the surrounding human coaches. They are fairly similar but I definitely see some more upside in the second player, but think the first is still a very solid D3 player, especially with the Ath/LP combination. If the second guy gets strong growth out of his LP, he could be a better scorer with that high BH.

I would get a feeling out of how the first couple cycles pan out and adjust accordingly. Again, happy to have either player on my d3 squad but do think the second guy is a bit better.

I may also add that if you are running press, the second player may struggle to stay on the floor with the really low stamina. Going to take him a couple years to get to a comfortable level. I would let that weigh heavily on your mind if that is the defensive set you are running.

Running man, but that is a good point. I also looked at their GPA, and worries of having to dish out more study hall time to keep #2 on the floor. Either one will get 10-15 minutes per game as a true FR so the chance for growth early will be there. I'm literally split right down the middle on this lol.

If you are split down the middle, take the one who is easier to get. Won't know this until recruiting starts of course.

I would prefer C2 for sure, though they are fairly close.
