I haven't checked on it recently, but how about you search recruiting sites like the rest of us? Then, maybe bring a more narrowed down question to the board.

As is typical of this board, I see you're not getting many helpful responses.

The 2016 class is pretty much wrapped up with five signees, although they may look to add anot her guy, such as a senior transfer, later. Here's a quick breakdown of the five recruits:

1. Skylar Mays, 6-4 PG. Considered a pure, pass first PG.

2. Branden Jenkins, 6-4 combo guard, Lee College (juco). Strong perimeter defender. Developing midrange and outside jumper. Good athlete.

3. Duop Reath, 6-10 power forward, Lee College, teammate of Jenkins. Athletic, good length, has some outside range and promising skills. Defense thought to be a little ahead of his offense from what I understand, but offense supposedly getting better.

4. Wayde Sims, 6-7 forward. Plays a lot of post in high school but expected to play the wing in college. Working on his perimeter shot. Looks like a good athlete. Son of former LSU hoops player Wayne Sims.

5. Kieran Hayward, 6-5 guard. Very athletic. Good leaper. Can hit from deep and shows ability to drive and score. Questions about quality of competition faced but seems to have the raw skills and athletic ability to develop into a solid player.

With this class pretty much wrapped up, I want to know where we stand with 2017 prospects, especially instate. We have a commitment from Cedric Russell, a 6-2 combo guard out of Peabody in Alexandria. The top uncommitted guys instate include:

Josh Anderson, 6-4 guard of Madison Prep.

Brandon Rachal, 6-5 guard, Natchitoches Central, who is also emerging as a football prospect at WR, though he favors badketball.

Galen Alexander, 6-5 forward, Breaux Bridge.

Not sure who LSU has offered yet or where LSU stands with them, but those are some of the bigger names on the radar for 2017. Would love for LSU to snag at least a couple of those guys, plus find a couple of solid post players to add.

This kid is gonna shock people next year. He's done two US AAU tours and was the best player on every court he stepped on. Averaged 17 the first tour and 19 the second. Dude just fills it up. If he was born in America he'd be a top 50 recruit. Hoping we add another JUCO wing or William McDowell-White as well.

Good stuff.

I really hope we could add one more big who is ready to contribute. Unless E. Robinson makes a big step between soph & jr. year, we need one more 6'9-6'10 guy to defend & rebound. If we do that and If B. Sampson can step up next yea, we should make the tourney

Drake Davis plans to play football and basketball.

Not sure how good he is at bball, but he is a supremely gifted athlete so probably pretty good.

Hayward has mad leaping ability and looks like he can shoot the ball too.
