that highlight video kills me. Nothing but dunking, with a sampled "yeaaa" audio snippet played every time it happens... talk about worthless highlight video.

Welcome to the fam Bates!

^^the key takeaway is he is a shot blocker first. There's a reason you only saw him dunking. The hope is he will be a rotation guy behind some more well rounded recruits that haven't decided yet.

As has been discussed, there's tons of available time in the post next year. Abu, Freeman, and almost certainly Yurt all gone. Hicks will be around...unsure if he'll be any good. That leaves Hicks and this new guy as basically the only bigs. Obviously we'll have plenty of open scholarships and probably look at grad transfers for some immediate impact. He may start. But whether he starts or not, we've got tons of PT to sell post recruits on for 2018.

From N&O:

N.C. State basketball target Louis King, the No. 15 ranked prospect in the Class of 2018, is expected to announce today.

King, a 6-8, 195-pound small forward plays for Hudson Catholic in Burlington, N.J. He is choosing between Oregon, N.C. State, Kansas, Purdue and Seton Hall.

According to 247sports’ Crystal Ball Predictions, 92 percent of the 13 experts polled expect him to choose Oregon.

More importantly, 4* PF David Mccormack might pick Sunday. Looks like 247 is picking Kansas, but we should be right there. If we dont get him, we will be awful thin in the frontcourt next year.

yeah seems like KU is the favorite.

Ian Steere decomitted from Creighton...he's teammates with Bates and we've offered him and recruiting him pretty hard apparently. he's a center 4*

Looks like some of these 4* and 5* guys we lost to Arizona and Louisville might have been for a $pecific rea$on.

Fallout of this federal investigation is going to be interesting.

With our luck, NC State will end up tangled in the investigation due to us being an Adidas school.

Should we be concerned? I had people on this thread tell me that NC State being an Adidas school played a factor into landing Dennis Smith.

I'd say so. We rank in the top 15 of one-and-done schools according to CBS Sports:

https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/study-schools-with-most-early-nba-entries-in-one-and-done-era/

Smith, Warren, Hickson, Brown? I made the post above yours jokingly, but now I'm thinking we should prepare for the worst.

Lol we've had 2 one and dones in our entire history and they played for different coaches


^Lorenzo Brown came from prep school, he didn't even have to go to college.

Warren was never a "one-and-done" prospect, he was a 4* on most sites by the time he finished HS and he was a 6th man for us as a FR.

Brown was also a 4* when he committed to us and ended up getting a bump to a 5th star when he went to a prep school. Once again, no one considered him a one-and-done.

Harrow? Purvis? Neither were expected to be ready after 1 season.

I'd say the only guys that signed in the last 5-10 years that was considered a POSSIBLE one-and-done would be Hickson, Leslie, Yurtseven, and DSJ. DSJ and Hickson being almost locks and Leslie and Yurtseven having potential.

nah

i mean...in a broad sense, you can worry if you want. but at this point there's literally nothing to worry about. if it'll help you sleep at night, you can always just tell yourself that DSJ grew up a State fan we didn't need Adidas to grease palms (maybe some boosters, but not necessarily Adidas). plus DSJ is Under Armor now right? so Adidas got fucked if they did pay him



[Edited on September 26, 2017 at 3:59 PM. Reason : ^this stuff doesn't even go back to Brown and def not Hickson...it's all very recent, i belive]

I'm pretty worried about the potential trickle from Louisville. basketball is so dirty. watch UNC skate by again through all this mess.

Brandon Costner got paid by Adidas. that was pretty well known at the time. As was hickson.

CJ Leslie pretty much had it stamped on his forehead that he was holding out for more $ with his de-commitment after he blew up and re-commitment

UNC actually has an ever better chance of skating now. College sports are a business? Students are being exploited? Time to overhaul everything, so even though UNC broke the previous rules, the whole system needs to change, so why punish them when it's all going to restructure anyway?

I dont know how UNC skates. This has put the NCAA in a position where they have to hand down the harshest penalty possible, otherwise, what is the point of the NCAA other than to be a front for agents and show companies?
