He had quite a HS career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had quite a HS career. I hope he continues to work on his shooting range - beyond the arc. That would certainly help get him playing time next year. He seems to have really developed in his last year and should be the kind of Billiken that TF and staff are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Pearson, got to believe he finally gets rated by some of these sites. Given the year he had, his size, his stats, athleticism, etc. Or is it all about AAU exposure?

His limited exposure is a big reason we were able to get him, so yay for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlebill Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 ESPN's came out this morning. Gordon at 72. Wild how he free-fell (falled?) after he committed. I understood when he was injured, but to continue to do so is wild. He was #9 when he committed. I imagine his actual ranking should be somewhere between there and now. However, Carteare is the highest signee for a school in the state of MO (Torrence Watson at 73), as well as the highest in the A10 (Jermaine Harris to Rhody at 86).

From what Ive heard his largest fall did happen because of injury, not so much commitment. He has all the accolades to remain high even with signing to SLU.

Gordon had a few things work against him in the rankings since his highest ranking. He didn't really get much taller, he missed time on the AAU circuit, his missed time in high school and he had to play a role that didn't let him shine in several feature events this high school season when Ramey was injured.

True, this doesnt help at all. But for SLU, this was a blessing. It'll make him that much more dangerous now that he was forced to bring up the ball against elite guards.

(how good could he be if he signed with the billikens right?) dennis_w likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
