I meant Major....but regardless. There are not 51 guys singed/committed by ESPN. There are around 43.
IMO Xavier is gonna be on that fine line of major D1-mid major.

2015 shooter Noah Bramlage (@NoahBramlage31) is starting to attract some high-major interest (VIP) http://t.co/HLH8T39TLd #Iowa #Irish #PSU

I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

"Ohio might just have the best group of sophomores out of them all."

"Xavier Simpson is a top ten guard nationally."

One of my friends who is an assistant to Keith Dambrot at Akron told me after the Ohio State Tournament Simpson will play in the Big Ten or any conference equal to it.

kid knows what to do in the lane...fluidity of ball handling reminds many folks of where Ulis was at this point. I'd like to see him as a Buckeye...might even make me start pulling for them

Good Lord.

Is it your assertion that the "twenty year old" is wrong and you are a more knowledgeable source? If so...I disagree.

In my opinion, that "20 year old college student" knows more about local basketball talent and college recruiting than almost ANYONE in this area. He will know what is happening with recruitment long before any of us do.

Others can, if they choose, look at your opinions and compare them to his to determine who they think has more credibility. I made that choice for myself when I opined that you undervalued all of them you mentioned...except Aherns...I believe...

So far your subsequent backtracking, and almost daily news of college contacts at much higher levels than you predicted...have certainly given me no cause to change my mind or sources I trust.

Normally I would say we will wait and see whose opinions are more accurate. I don't think it necessary at this point in time. You could admit you were quite a bit harsh, or remain stubbornly contrarian...it doesn't affect me personally, nor will it alter the content of the discussion.

Backtracking? I don't backtrack.
At any rate....who have I undervalued that's gone on to stardom?

I know Noah...nice kid, good HS player but he is MAC imo...
It's not that I don't like Simpson, I just feel he is too small for B10 play. He should go mid major and would probably have a good career and play a lot.

Stubbornly contrarian it is... 2016 is a long way and many reminders away...

Noah Bramlage – ’15 PF Ottawa Glandorf: Like Ahmad, Bramlage is a 6’7 forward for the All-Ohio Red 17u team who attacks opponents with a skill based game. Bramlage was very successful in Fort Wayne, shooting jumpers over smaller opponents, and also after setting a screen in the pick-and-roll game. A sometimes under appreciated athlete, Bramlage is able to get out in the open floor and play, showing more coordination and ball-skills then he has in the past. Since the opening weekend of the Nike EYBL last weekend, Bramlage has received new interest from Texas Tech, Harvard and Northwestern.

Bramlage will have plenty of choices...MAC being among them.

Lima Senior fans might want to keep an eye on Ibi Watson in that link.
