I believe Sallis is more of a combo guard, possibly recruiting him as a PG. I see Puff as more of a 3/4 at this point. Ideally, Roy likes to have two ball handlers on the floor at the same time. Puff will need to get stronger, but he certainly has the length to mix it up down low a bit.

Meant Styles can play the 3/4, not Sallis. Sallis can play the 1/2.
Puff is an exciting prospect. Can play the 3/4 but could possibly play some 2 down the road in a big lineup if he can work on his handling. He's got a little Justin Jackson in him right now with his ability to shoot and hit the floater.
I tell you what- Styles, Ingram, Smith, and Sallis is a VERY good follow up class. Still gotta believe we have a shot at Chet down the road.
Final 247 2020 rankings are in.
Caleb Love all the way up to 6! Dayron falls to 20 and Kessler to 25. RJ Davis moves up to 53, Puff down to 61, and Kerwin Walton cracks the Top 100 at 91. This gives us the #2 Class, just edging Dook's.

How the hell did Williams jump Sharp and Kessler
Just like Kessler, Caleb Loves RJ's work ethic. He has made a comittment to stay Sharpe in the off-season. He's not one to sit back and Puff on a cigar in preparation for the season. John Boy Walton had good traits also.

Sounds like we’re nearing an offer...
Hold on a little on the offer there is still vetting going on behind the scenes, but if he and his family check out he is indeed expected to get an offer
Maybe we should close this 2020 thread down and start a 2021 recruiting thread?
Good question. He has no Blue Bloods on his list. In addition to that, he has a bunch of questionable characters pursuing him, including Bruce Pearl and Will Wade. Maybe he's a G-League threat?
G League could be a threat now for any guys we go after and get (case in point, Caleb Love). But that is pretty sketch w Pearl and Wade... those guys have no boundaries
Relocated from Arizona, and seems to be highly underrated. But that is about to change.
Puff and Cam working out together. Identical frames.
Working out in the sand can really help your explosiveness. Good to see.
Lol. It’s a sports band for resistance.
I dont have not o e apple product I have a galaxy s 20 ultra.. but it did make me laugh to read that
This thread is more out-dated than an iPhone 2.
Mods pls lock this up so we can get to 2021 and 2022 recruiting.

I need all the help I can get with my old eyes.
You're right. Why have thread titles to begin with? After all, we have plenty of time now to scour every thread for whatever info or subjects that might be of interest.
It's not a big deal unless you actually expect a thread titled "2020 recruiting thread" to concern 2020 recruiting.
In fact, no titles is a great idea to prevent thread theft. We can discuss anything, any time, anywhere. And we don't have to wear a mask. Heck, if we hang an assault rifle on our shoulder while reading and typing we can call it real freedom.

This hype video aside, I really like KW 2.0 - seems like he's well under-ranked.
What he lacks in athleticism, he makes up for with strength. That's a college-ready physique. If the shot can translate, he'll be immediately valuable.
Yeah, I agree. At 6-5 and with that physique, he’s strong enough to play SF. I think he gets a few minutes at both SG and SF this year.
Hopefully Leaky and Ant are healthy to start the season and can stay that way. Both have the potential to be very hard nosed defenders and rebounders. RJ can back up the one and the two, Kerwin the two and the three(with Puff helping out at the three). KJ or Creighton can provide spot minutes at the one, and Andrew at the two. Day’ron and Walter back up Mando and Garrison down low.
That’s a great rotation if we’re healthy.
