It is from scout/foxsportsnext, douchenozzle. I was just giving him a list of the top 15 rated guys. If it bothers you, go sit on a chainsaw.

Find out Wednesday where Josh Hart will be attending next year. Keeping the fingers crossed that it is PSU. He's deciding between PSU, Rutgers, and Nova.

A big sleeper is Christian Wood from UNLV. He's the #33 prospect according to Rivals. The guy is 6'10" with a 7'2" wingspan, and is an excellent three point shooter. He's got the mobility of a 3 with the size of a 4. If he develops more than a jump shot, he'll be a lottery pick some time down the road.

That means you guys averaged a speed of greater than 12mph.

He was Nova the whole time.

College basketball practice is underway!

ImBrotherCain · 10-12-2012, 09:27 AM

Can't wait for the season. Lets go Cuse!

ncst8fan83 · 10-12-2012, 08:55 PM

Lorenzo Brown is going to blow the eff up this year. Seriously guys, watch out.

ph90702 · 10-13-2012, 10:52 PM

Jelan Kendrick to UNLV.

T-RICH49 · 10-15-2012, 12:13 PM

Wayne Selden to Kansas...BOOM!!! What a great birthday gift

BuckeyeDan17 · 10-15-2012, 03:31 PM

Going to miss Sully this year - Amir Williams doesn't bring anywhere near the offensive polish he did but he's got way more potential as a defender with his length and athleticism. If LaQuinton Ross pulls his head out of his ass and buys into defense like Matta requires then we probably won't miss Buford.

My projected starting lineup:

Craft
Lenzelle Smith
Sam Thompson (Ross has the potential, but he hasn't shown anything yet)
DeShaun Thomas
Amir Williams

We have some early tests at Duke and home to Kansas

The UNLV Runnin' Rebels are going to be very good this year, but wait until 2013-2014. They will probably be in the top 5 to start off that season, and they will have a great chance to win the championship. Their top 8 will consist of Jelan Kendrick, Bryce Dejean-Jones, Roscoe Smith, Anthony Bennett, Khem Birch, Katin Reinhardt, Savon Goodman, and Christian Wood. Other than Kentucky, I don't know of any teams that will be able to match that.

First rankings of the year. USA Today Coaches Poll!!!

3 of the top 5 teams from the Big Ten. Conference hasn't won a NC since 2000. Might be their best shot in a while.

TheBoyWonder22 · 10-17-2012, 02:36 PM

So will my St. Johns Red Storm actually be fielding a basketball team this year?

Is this assuming nobody declares early for the draft from any team, including UNLV? If so, I think the list is much longer than just Kentucky.

JRTPlaya21 · 10-17-2012, 03:35 PM

UK just snagged Marcus Lee. Smh can Cal be stopped?

Kentucky is the only team that can match UNLV in 2013-2014. Name me one other team that could? Mike Moser is the only guy declaring early.

I think his point is that most guys aren't going to wait another year to jump to the NBA if they are that good.

UNLV has a really good chance to land another 4 or 5 star recruit. Going into 2013-2014, that would give them 9 players on their roster who were 4 or 5 star recruits on their roster. Who else has that many good players coming out of high school? Not even Indiana, who is number 1 right now, has 9 4 or 5 star recruits on their roster.

Duke, UNC, UCLA, NC State, Kansas, Arizona could all very well end up with that sort of talent on next year's roster, to name a few.

I love how you quoted me, but literally didn't at any point respond to what I said.

There is no "next year" in college basketball anymore.

I beg to differ. There's only about 10-15 freshmen that leave for the draft after one season.

Giantsfan1080 · 10-18-2012, 06:05 PM

Can we please get Tyler Roberson?? If we don't we've struck out on every major player we recruited. I know it's tough goings but we have the foundation now to build something.
