…
14 Maalik Wayns 6-2 PG Roman Catholic (PA) Villanova Wayns may have to wait his turn to run the show, but even with all of the guards in the rotation, he should be heard from often as a freshman.
…
18 Aaric Murray 6-10 C/PF Glen Mills (PA) La Salle An under-the-radar recruit going to an under-the-radar program, but Murray shouldn’t be anonymous for long.

ReplyDeleteHa, I don't know man. It's so tough to gauge. John Wall is a beast too. Hard to go wrong with either one. But the word on the street is Wall may be the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 draft, so hard to not have him in the top spot if that's the case.
ReplyDeleteWall's a monster indeed, so I can concede on that one. Born Ready though?? Ehhh, I don't know. I mean, he's GOOD, but still. I think there has to be more to him not picking a school. Can we say...how can I be PC about it??? Is he a...NEANDERTHAL, perhaps?? I don't know; maybe it's because there are Born Ready's in every class, but I'm just not as crazy about this cat as I was, say, earlier this year.
ReplyDeleteI heard the murmurs about him, but every time I saw him play (admittedly only about a dozen times), he was a beast. I'd take him.
