Here are the stats for last year. Pretty impressive.

Sitting in a hotel room, so someone else will have to do the compilation.

No espn recruiting commentary and outside of the Indiana page that I found as well not a ton. Like st joes offer but they might have offered early and backed away, seemingly it was us, Boston university and some other mids in on him.

Lehigh has extended an offer to Michael Daum 6-9 PF

We need another guard like I need a punch in the face! Go big or go home!

Pretty good video on Gehring below, from GK high school and a lefty! Might he be our number one big target? Seems athletic and likes to dunk everything but nice little lefty hook and post game.

Let me explain why I think JRG is a FW.

Here is his highlight reel. Does this look like he has the skill set of a guard?

Here are his stats from HS

Note:He took 460 shots, 36 were from beyond the arc.He shot 66% from inside and 36% from the 3. Averaged 7 rpg and had 7 more blocked shots than assists.

Lipscomb tried to make him a guard and here are his stats:

It didn’t work.

I believe it was RichH who compared his game to Queenan and it has stuck with me. I am by no means saying he will put up DQ #s but they are about the same size. They both possess human hi-light reel capabilities for dunking the basketball. They can both jump out of the building. Only time will tell but he may be the kind of X factor you are looking for.
Just my opinion.

TMH – when you lay out the numbers like that it certainly can lend itself to going best available. I guess the reason why I say go big is because the frontcourt you laid out for next year is the same one we hav for 13 season and he same question remains as of now – which is we haven’t seen JC TK SW on the college court yet. We know what we have in CB, which is a limited bench guy, and while I and others are high on JG upside it is still just upside until he goes out and does it. Regarding JRG, I don’t know what to expect here boys, I see a guy who put up big numbers in a questionable high school league and did it out athleting guys and beating on some smaller guys – he flamed out at Lipacomb, now I know we can argue about coach using him sparingly and how there might have been a conflict between them because when he played decent minutes he did well. I think he has more of a forwards game then a guards buttes be honest with ourselves if we stick with a 3 guard lineup he has to play 3rd guard spot at 6’4. Think of the good 4 men in PL last year and tell me how he guards these guys at 6’4: Willman greiner wroblicky etc…he is best fit As a small forward/big guard who can hopefully guard multiple positions at 6’4, and play effective in the paint on offense versus a small 3 guard team : I think our staff player development with him in his off year is all a out expanding his guard skills and if he does that he could be dangerous in our league cause he is a good athlete. But I can’t think we can call him a forward just because he has a forwards game.

In reality to someone else’s point, the most logical option is for staff to not rush this last schollie but instead try to find a December or spring signing after seeing what we have in frontcourt, and backcourt as well. For example if AP is a major contributor, and I have heard positive reports, does that change perception of what we need in last axhollie?
