I have to assume that taking time during the season and during a week off to go see this kid means that he is a priority.

Potter recorded 19 points, 6 rebounds and 9 blocks in the game that Coach Ford attended.  And he put up this stat line in a game a couple of weeks ago:

Better question: Does he have any wizard in him?

[Pistol]

He's a 7-footer.

The most important question is can he dunk, and at 7' we'll assume he can. So I think it's fair to go next level with him ... can he dunk over a trash can?

I hear to land Potter you got offer Weasley a scholarship and Hermione a spot on the dance team.  They are a package deal.

[brianstl]

If you see a moppy haired 6-5 kid behind the SLU bench at the Auburn game, this is him. Show him some love, SLU fans. He's not just a @Box and Won all-name team priority recruit. Kid can play. He's also a 4.0 student so, you know, be smart.

He goes to Byron Nelson High School? They name schools after golfers now?

[Pistol]

Whoops. That original tweet was dated 12/9 - he was at the BC game.

 

I will learn how calendars work eventually.

I think they're pretty similar in terms of what they offer. I think either would be a great fit. Jimerson is the closest comp to either on this team, and I'd say both are a little more versatile overall coming out of HS and GJ is probably the purest shooter.
