Touché.

I'll sneak into the locker room during halftime of one of his games and see what I can come up with. Right now I'm guessing size 19, with an estimated full grown Edwards sporting a size 23.

Terrible recruit.

I expect to see a few offers like Edwards in the next few years, in the event we can't pull in the out of state talent.

We'd be doing good in 013 if we just pulled in some of the in state talent like Nichols, WmsIII, Crawford and Hubbs.
Might have to supplement with guys like Craft, dyson and Johnson.

013 will be interesting and recruiting might depend on how far Martin takes the team next season.

Yup. Martin can really get down to business if he lands the TN elites in this next class.

I've seen some with this opinion and others with the opposite. It seems the consensus is he's a 7'1" big man that has only been playing ball 3-4 years and is raw. People say he's a hard worker and is really working hard to become better and supposedly is working with a post coach. More should come out from a scouting standpoint during aau ball this summer and we should get a much better idea of what he brings.

In any regard, at 7'1" if he's the least bit athletic if coached properly can be an effective C for us. We are in dire need of post men in the 2013 class so I have no problem with this offer at all and would like to pull him since our chanes with kinglsey seem to have dwindled.

If you land: Landry, Hubbs, Thornwell, Crawford, Nichols & Edwards that's solid IMO. Nichols will play the 4 and yemi the 5 and Edwards can play a year behind yemi still professing in his basketball skills. Maybe I'm overestimating him, but unless hes completely uncoordinated and unathletic(Kenny George) then I say bring him in.

Could be the next center for UT.
