KJ getting rave reviews...here is Scout's latest on him...from Dave Telep (changes made to be allowed):

Ennis will be in school a few years and is cut from the scoring point guard mold. J[B]oseph is more of a natural floor leader, a get-in-the-paint-and-pass-it type of lead guard.[/B] [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=#333333]” said Vin Pastore, Joseph's AAU coach with the Mass Rivals. “They perceive him down the line to be a point guard, a pass-first guy. He’s a pass-first guy and that’s Kaleb. Plus, Kaleb’s personality allows him not to have to play 30 minutes to be pleased. Everybody wants to play, but he won’t be a negative if his minutes aren’t 30. [B]They recognize his character.” [/B][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]
 
[SIZE=12px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=#333333]What you have is a good player and smart kid fulfilling his dream. He fits the program. Nobody recognized that more than Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim. [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]
 
[SIZE=12px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=#333333]You probably haven’t heard the Orange mentioned with many point guards in the 2014 class. They’re on ESPN 100 shooting guard [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][URL='http://espn.go.com/college-sports/basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/127371/isaiah-whitehead'][COLOR=#608fd6][FONT=verdana][SIZE=12px]Isaiah Whitehead[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/URL][SIZE=12px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=#333333], and while he prefers having the ball in his hands, he’s not a point. Syracuse was all in for Joseph, making him a priority long before AAU season hit full swing. [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

I have never seen the guy show up at as many games for a guy as he did for Kaleb. He got to see him at every place and that said a lot. They had a crew at all his games but he showed up three different times [in July].” [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/B]
