^ he will make the ball on his arm bounce and they will surrender the number to him

2/21/2010 11:34:53 AM

D-Horn? in the NBA??

2/21/2010 11:36:15 AM

hell yeah son he is a lock

2/21/2010 11:37:38 AM

2/22/2010 1:50:45 AM

^ wait, are we recruiting him?

2/22/2010 7:36:13 AM

is that a serious question?

2/22/2010 7:40:44 AM

gotta love the molestache!

2/22/2010 12:17:09 PM

I think we should go after Tyler Lewis, Class of 2012 from Lewisburg, NC. Anyone know if we're showing any interest?

He'll end up at Duke







You know why

2/22/2010 4:47:00 PM

I think I do.

According to a Jan 8 story, he was going to visit UNC.

2/22/2010 4:50:06 PM

He's like a white Ryan Harrow in those videos. I don't really like the form on his jump shot though. But hey whatever works for him I guess.

2/22/2010 5:05:06 PM

He ain't quite got the ups that Harrow has

(that probably has something to do with the whiteness )


I hadn't heard of him before. My friend sent me the video today, he's a Charlotte fan. Apparently the 49ers have been after him since his freshman year.

2/22/2010 5:10:54 PM

I had seen his profile before, but didn't really see any videos of him until now. Harrow does have some ups. In one of those videos he goes up for a putback and his fingertips are at the level of the top of the white square on the backboard. Dude is slightly taller than me and I can't even touch the rim (always an inch or so away).

2/22/2010 5:30:08 PM

it has never been better to be class of 2014.

2/22/2010 5:30:39 PM

his jump shot reminds me of fergusons

2/22/2010 5:48:08 PM

that's like the meanest thing you could have said about him...

to be honest though, t-ferg didn't have that bad of a shot, he just lacked the speed to play guard in D-I

2/22/2010 5:55:25 PM

hes going to have to increase the speed of that cross over (and everything else) before i compare him at all to harrow

2/22/2010 8:28:24 PM

2/22/2010 8:58:12 PM

Seriously that is fucking ridiculous. I wonder what Ryan's vertical is.

2/22/2010 11:45:20 PM

^^that dunk is pretty ridiculous, BUT.....i will be unbiased and point out his left arm/hand and how hes helping himself a little using the other guys back

2/22/2010 11:48:55 PM

It actually wasn't a dunk, it was a tap back. Still pretty incredible though for a guy his size. You sure about him helping himself up. I mean we've all seen him be able to throw the ball off of the backboard, catch it and slam it back down. There are guys 6, heck even 12 inches taller than him that can't do that.

Word of God plays their first round state playoff game tomorrow night at home. Would be nice to get some red in the crowd. Gametime is either 7 or 730

2/23/2010 3:12:28 AM

^^^^sure, i mean, no denying ryan has great leaping ability, especially for a guy hovering around 6 feet. However, as you can see in that shot, his damn elbow is at the same height as the rim. Thats even a little high for him. I don't really care either way, glad he got the points

that's all well and good, but i doubt he'll go to uncc w/ an offer from duke on the table (hypothetically).

2/23/2010 8:51:03 AM

^True.

Apparently his older brother is already a freshman on th e49ers.

2/23/2010 9:29:44 AM

remember that michael beasley was committed to uncc for 2 or 3 years before huggins came calling his assistant coach. elite talent will find its way to elite schools regardless of personal favoritism.

[Edited on February 23, 2010 at 11:12 AM. Reason : .]

2/23/2010 11:10:34 AM

Apparently vasquez was committed, or close to committed (i forgot the story) to UNCC as well. I think he followed an assistant coach from Charlotte to Maryland. Or so my 49ers friend told me.

or maybe i'm confusing that story w/ the beasley story, but something went down w/ greivis and charlotte

^^ Yeah we did, but if you search for any big name player+school on Facebook you'll find a group about it. I always end up joining when I see what some faggy ass UNC bandwagoner posted somewhere on the wall just to throw facts back at their argument of how UNC would never do anything like this.

ryan harrow snubbed again

2/23/2010 4:29:16 PM

Good. Getting snubbed means he might come in with a chip on his shoulder. Especially when Kendall Marshall and Kyrie Irving are two players consistently beating him out.

2/23/2010 4:42:50 PM

Good? I don't know about that.

Hopefully Ryan isn't the type of athlete that would be complacent just because he made an allstar team (and it doesn't seem like he is). I hope he gets the recognition he deserves.

[Edited on February 23, 2010 at 4:48 PM. Reason : ]

2/23/2010 4:47:45 PM

Yeah, this was important to him. Kinda sucks. Oh well. I doubt he'll let it bring him down too much.

"Another N.C. State Facebook NCAA violation? Last year it was John Wall, this year it's C.J. Leslie. For the second straight season, Wolfpack fans have taken to Facebook to convince one of the nation's best high school players to commit to N.C. State. Only one problem - doing so is a violation of NCAA rules. You can count me as one of the many people that feels as though the NCAA has a lot more pressing issues to worry about than students banding together on Facebook."

that last line tells me it's some UNC/Duke homer trying to stir shit up...why the fuck even write the story if that is the case?

Eh, I'm not that impressed by him. Unless he can dunk, which it obviously looks like he can't, I don't know that he has the ACC level talent that we're looking for. He's still young, but Ryan Harrow will be a tough act to follow. I'd rather us go after the big fish before him.

2/23/2010 11:05:42 PM

I hate UNC. Just looked up Kendall Marshall's stats: like 14 ppg and the internets appear to be hiding other 2009-2010 stats out of favoritism to UNC. I assume he probably has like 5 rpg and 4 assists (being generous) so how the fuck can someone put him ahead of Harrow with 32, 6, and 6? I guess it's the intangibles.

[Edited on February 24, 2010 at 7:00 AM. Reason : idk, maybe he had like 10 apg and I'm not finding it.]

2/24/2010 6:59:18 AM

I think that height has something to do with it too...

Most of these games are trying to "make the right call" by not only showing kids who will be good in college, but the group of kids from this class that are most likely to show up in the first round of the draft in the coming years ... lets face it, harrow aint that tall, and most of the other guards are 6'3, 6'4

2/24/2010 8:01:42 AM

^^ I don't know much about Marshall's stats but not all high school stats are equivalent. So much depends on who they play and how good the rest of their team is...

It's not a very good idea to rate H.S. prospects based solely on their numbers.

Plus, Harrow has chosen to be a much bigger scorer this year because of his team's needs. Marshall is and has always been a pure pass-first PG.

**** I just found his JR year stats and they were 16 points and 8 assists per game.
