While many do not like ESPN for recruiting, it's a lot harder to mess up basketball. They just updated their top 100 with a few changes.

Players of Interest:
Jarrell Martin - 10 (Up from 15) | LSU Signee
Keith Frazier - 48 (Down from 23)
Jordan Mickey - 53 (Down from 41)| LSU Signee
Tim Quartmann - 81 (Down from mid-60s) | LSU Signee
Damian Jones - 82 | Vandy Signee
Kendal Harris - 87 | USC Signee

To go along with the McD's AA thread, this should guarantee his spot in the game.

They are actually pretty good with their basketball recruiting and have done a lot to feature a number of the top recruits on their channels which is nice.

I'm kind of shocked though that Mickey dropped. I thought he was having a good year, but I guess Mudiay has stolen the show from him.

Frazier was bound to head down a good bit, he has been having a pretty bad senior year

I was too. He has some pretty good tape. There's a thread on the first page with his senior highlight film, and I thought it was very impressive.

Well anyone in the top 100 can have a very impressive highlight film, it's what they do on a day-to-day basis that garners them their ranking. Mickey has been solid all season which is odd why he dropped.

Also, you might as well pencil Kentucky into the title game next year. They add Wiggins and it's a no brainer. This might be their best recruiting class so far and they still aren't done. It has the perfect mix of guys you would want in a recruiting class

After the last regime, I'm excited about anyone in the top 100.

JOB was ranked 46, Malik Morgan was 89, Andre Stringer just missed it at 107. All rankings are from Rivals

Gotcha, maybe a better question would have been if TJ ever had a class rank this high..

Nope, and he never got a guy the caliber of Martin, either.

Yep, that's it, not Ralston Turner.

So arguably 3 of his 4 "Biggest" players he got all transferred out

Aaron Dotson was another 4* guy.

Here's all the top 100 guy TJ had. All ESPN.


Aaron Dotson - 45 - LINK
Ralston Turner - 70 - LINK
Andre Stringer - LINK
Matt Derenbecker - 87 - LINK
Johnny O'Byrant- 46 - LINK

A lot of guys that were good but never anyone close to Martin's level.

Instead of starting a new thread, ill just ask this here.

Who can we compare Martin, Mickey, and Quarterman to that plays in the NBA?
