Message: [QUOTE="orangecuse, post: 2309238, member: 668"] I follow recruiting, but maybe to a fault, I mostly pay attention to the schools a prospect is being recruited by and where he's rated. With that being said, neither UW nor UN are your usual suspects when it comes to the higher end hoops programs. Obviously, UW is in his final 3 because of Hop. I believe from what I read, Roberts is not rated in the top 100. So, with SU generally being thought of as an Elite level program, I can see where a less informed fan as myself may not be so pumped, at least at the moment, based upon the thought that if he was a 'labeled' a high level recruit, why doesn't he rank higher or why aren't other 'top tier' type programs after him? Now, JB & co. wouldn't offer/go after him so hard if they didn't see something they really like, but we have missed on recruits lately (from a valuation standpoint, recent transfers, etc.) and a somewhat longer history on -[I] big guy [/I]- evaluation misses.
