In response to besnoah
As the self-anointed scout of the HS YouTube videos, I would say the jury is out on this one. His videos showed sound fundamentals, but there wasn't much in terms of his playmaking and ball control. His shot looked good but not great. His footwork looked OK, but not polished. I would call him athletic but not explosive or strong. He looks so young in his videos. In sum, he has high potential, but he needs development. He wouldn't be an impact Freshman in the league.
He does look like he still has a lot of growth ahead of him, so he could turn out to be a really good Ivy player. If he has great stuff between his ears and develops his speed and strength, he has good tools to work with.
In general, I would give him benefit of the doubt if he is an Inter-AC star and if we have already offered. His other offers look good but not overwhelming. It's too early for me to call this a miss by our staff.
My rec-level basketball acumen might have missed something.
