TAKE THIS WITH A COMPLETE GRAIN OF SALT:
So this is gonna sound like one of those nephew's grandfather's cousin half removed stories...cuz, well, it is.
I was at the Hudson Catholic game last night (Quinerly is GOOD) and ran into Tim Philp, who is an assistant at a big school up here, Cardinal Hayes, and a friend of mine. He was scouting Hudson Catholic since they play them next week. Asked him where he thought Zion was going...
He said the only thing he heard was this past summer that Leander Anderson (Zion's AAU coach and stepdad) was telling people that Zion wanted to be Carmelo Anthony. I said, what the hell does that mean? He said he wants to go to a school for 1 year, leave his mark as one of the best to ever play there, win a title, then get drafted top 3 and he can do that at Clemson and become their best player ever.
Just passing along what I heard, take this for whatever you want. Last summer was an eternity ago in recruiting worlds and you should still take Heelswin's word over anyone else's.
