Fitzgerald's brother?

well, from what I've seen so far in 2 of his JC games and 2 Charis Prep games = he's a point guard.

Baylor's PG 'X' off the board?

Sadly, I believe I read earlier this evening that Pierre Jackson committed to Baylor today, so I'm afraid not.

 

[coolm]

hard to gauge defense by the films I saw. it would seem he certainly has the skills and body to play some good D. if he's as fast as he says he is then it's a good sign - he seemed to have decent handles (but didn't see anyone really pressure him that hard)

Looks like you are correct

I like the Grooms commitment.

Why wasn't he at least Honorable Mention? Did I miss something?

Welcome to the Sooner Nation Sam! Hopefully, he is quick enough to play D on D-1 PG's. Newell can move to the 2 and Blair can be pushed to get better or be the backup PG. We now need another a big or two and a scoring guard.

I didn't "present" them in that manner. I posted the link to the videos and stats just as a "decide for yourself" kind of deal.
