Greg went from pretty stupid to GREAT in five hours. This must be one of those times out of twice a day that Greg gets it right. Or, to use a term from politics - "walking it back".
Jaylen Blakes - 6'1" G out of Blair Academy and the New York Lightning AAU. Can shoot the 3, has a good handle, can slash and scores through contact. Has an offer from Georgia, Rutgers, Yale, Harvard, DePaul, Stanford, SJU UCONN and Penn State. . Interest fromWake Forest, Columbia & Brown.
Gabe Wiznitzer - 6'11" PF/C out of Salem, S.C., the Christ School (NC) and Game Elite AAU (Atlanta) - Plays for the same high school team as 5-Star current Iona recruit and former Scanlan CG Jalen LecQue. He also gets to go up against Brandon Stone, a 6'11" 3 Star C who has offers from Kansas State, South Carolina, Pitt, Houston, Penn State, and ST Joes amongst others. We are Wiznitzer's first offer. Is reported to be a skilled big who can stretch defenses with his outside shot.
"Gabe is a skilled big man with a lot potential. Just an eighth-grader, he showed the ability to contribute in gameplay versus players a year or two older than him. He has a high release on his finishes and his free throws. Adding a left-handed finish will help him score at a higher rate in the future. We have Gabe on our radar as an emerging prospect from the Palmetto State." - #EBATop40 Camp review - OTRHoopsReport - October 17, 2015
"This 6-foot-5 post has a big body with nice hands and soft touch around the rim. He rebounds well in space and finds open teammates off the double team Georgia United Stars." - OTRHoopsReport: MLK Tournament – January. 21, 2016
"We strongly feel Gabe could be the sleeper player on this absolutely talented team. We’re talking about a mobile power forward with tremendous shooting range. He has a delicate shooting touch from the perimeter and is a gifted passer as well." - Phenom’s High School Jamboree — Team Previews (Christ School) Oct 28, 2017
"It’s really hard to believe he’s only a freshman. While he will need to tone up his body moving forward, one thing is for certain; he has advanced offensive skill set. His ability to shoot the midrange and 3-pointer is high level. We were impressed with his workmanlike approach to the game. Gabe has passer friendly hands and doesn’t force shots. He has a nice understanding of the game and his basketball IQ is going to translate nicely at the next level." Phenom’s Open Gym Tour – Christ School (Arden, NC) Sep 15, 2017
Looks like the staff now has their work cut out for this kid...

Yeah, but are any of those other schools renovating their home court?!? [/quote] Good point. I don't believe Clemson, TCU, LSU, Nebraska, or Penn State are planning on renovating their 17,000+ seat arena's this summer!
