Rivals updated its Top 150 for next season.

I thought Monroe was the #1 player hands down. I was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off on that one. He dropped from the #1 to #8. :oops:

Sorry, Kofax.

Although, Joesanity may like the guy at #1.

Every Carolina recruit slipped.

Also, rumor has it that Hansbrough and Ellington are staying. Hope, hope.

Lawson to test waters (and probably be convinced by an agent that he'll be a first round pick and go).

hopefully Floyd can add to Jefferson and Gibson on the interior. :thumbsup:

What's up with DJ Augustin?

Koufax · **Posted:** Wed Apr 23, 2008 6:51 pm

wow, what did they say was the reason for Monroe?

The reason why I was hoping Koufos would stay. These two would fit well together.

Apparently, he's in limbo. Probably about the 20th pick at this point, and I don't know what his wishes are. Not sure about his family's situation either, which always plays a BIG role (see Ty Lawson).

Did Koufos sign an agent?

UConn is losing:

Doug Wiggins (transfer)
Curtis Kelly (transfer)
Possibly Thabeet (NBA)

UConn has received commitments from:

Kemba Walker (signed)
Scottie Haralson (signed)
Chukwuma Okwandu (oral)
Nate Miles (if he can ever become academically eligible)

Ater Majok is visiting UConn today.

Augustin declared today, as did Abrams. Neither has hired an agent. I expect Abrams back, Augustin is probably gone.

Koufax · **Posted:** Wed Apr 23, 2008 8:12 pm

wow, the guy they rank #1 is some slack jawed looking white CENTER named BJ Mullens

fuck him

white centers suck shit. rank THAT baby!

Looks like Anthony Jones slipped about 5 spots to 45 overall. Not bad, although I fear he's another Kevin Rogers/Darrell Arthur kinda guy who can't really play back to the basket. We need a banger.

My biggest worry is the rumor that Izzo may consider going to the Bulls. That's a bigger loss for a program than any player in the nation. Personally, I don't see it happening.

I was just about to post this. And yeah, that would be a bigger loss than Kansas losing their entire team.

Izzo is easily one of the top 5 coaches in the biz.

You get this guy and Jones slip is one hell of an afterthought. Looks like it's down to you and UConn fightin' it out. Seeing everything UConn has on the way, I'm pullin' for ya.

I'm very pleased with FSU's class. They have four players in the top 100, and Chris Singleton when up to #12 in the top 100. He has a very similar skill set to Al Thornton. He does seem to be more polished as a high school senior than Al was. Now, if he can just muster the same kind of insane work ethic. Then, even with Hamilton coaching, we might make the tourney.
