In response to Bison137
A few notes on Newman:
1. He apparently had a growth spurt over the past year and a half. Was called 6-6 18 months ago, 6-7 during his final year at Roman Catholic, and 6-8 earlier this season. Now 6-9 according to Verbal Commits.
2. The current head coach at Roman Catholic is Matt Griffin, John's brother. He did not coach Newman, since he only took over this summer, but he may have had some involvement.
3. Although I am sure he will be a bit of a project, he did do well in a couple of late season showcases. Had 21 points against national powerhouse Northfield Mt. Hermon in the National Prep School Invitational, and had 23 points in the NEPSAC AA Showcase.
