Oshae Brissett

[doc05]

Classic sleeper that will blow up in his senior year and be a solid top 100 guy. Was concerned about his height but I guess he has had a growth spurt.

 

[pearl31]

personally I think he'll be a helluva player - hope he commits pronto

Would be great to get the ball rolling with the class of 2017...

Maybe it's because he's not rated that highly yet and came on our radar sort of suddenly.

Rivals and ESPN do not rank players that play outside of the States. Both have him as a 4 star and Jerry fwiw has him at 52.

 

[Francis03]

I like it a heck of alot better if he is 6'9, because he is listed at 6'6 in some places.

Class of 2017 - PF Oshae Brissett (CN/NV) Offered by Syracuse

I'm guessing he signs within the week... nice pickup if he does. Could be a diamond in the rough...

Well, since Duke/Coach K isn't recruiting him, 'amazing' is good!

 

[jordville]

Sorry. Mine did not refresh for whatever reason.

They play different positions. If anything it helps Oregon, since Kigab and Brissett were teammates on the Canadian national teams. I think Brissett's ours to lose tho at this point.

Oregon gonna need Phil Knight's cash to beat us out. Would expect this to be a wrap for us after the Oregon visit.

Good to hear Francis. What's your take. Is this kid legit? My simple rule of thumb is if the staff wants him, he must be legit. They have actively pursued OB for a while - not a plan B/C as far I can tell. Would be good to get your view on him.

When you average a double double in EYBL and FIBA ball, then it gets no more legit than that. I've compared him to a Tyler Roberson type. Active PF that doesn't mind doing the dirty work around the paint. Can knock down the mid-range shot, but needs to prove that he can be consistent with that shot on the next level. Mostly a faceup player at this point. Hopefully Hop will be able to teach him some post moves to expand his versatility. Getting him would also be huge to expand our Canadian pipeline, because plenty of amazing talent will be coming from there in years to come.

My God can we just pop the cherry on this class already?

Preach Leo...

Was about to post that. Leo Rautins not exactly hurting our cause. One 'Cuse great
publicizing another.

Mentions Syracuse Orange first right after praising his game. You know where the Rautins loyalties are

Don't do it Oshae, just got ahead and commit to the Cuse.

I agree, don't be a hoser, eh.

Great. We just scared edowd away for good. Ay?

Been saying it for a while he's orange, probably will be our first commit too.

Good to hear.

Did anybody see anything about him delaying his trip to Oregon? I hope that isn't the case--want him to pull the trigger ASAP. Need to pop the cherry on the class of 2017.

How you feeling about Quade CuseMan?

Like I said before Kentucky is making that late push, it's going to be close but I still think he ends up Orange. His camp keeps things very close to the vest but he's made the trip to Cuse a lot and gels well with our players and will be our point guard, he loves that. Unfornately, Kentucky says he's "their guy " and are comparing him to Ulis so it's going to be close
