There aren't many good ones throughout the entire college game. It wouldn't matter what our strength of schedule is unless we are facing Purdue every game. Going through the top 25 (expected tourney teams), there are very few there either.

Do teams like Villanova worry about getting taller players? UVA, Xavier, etc?

Pilavious has been discussed ad nauseam. He's listed at 6-6; some people claim he's 6-4. All I know is he's got some height on me and Im 6-3. He was brought over to develop and play the stretch 4 type position. Put him in the weight room, is he that much difference in pure size than Carver is right now? (6-4 or 6-5 and 220ish?) Carver, FWIW, is the teams best rebounder right now. What else is there to say?

After last game, Alfis might be the team's best rebounder per 40....03-lmfao

He's still 2nd....to....Michael Heuitt Jr.! Alf is catching up since MH only had 1 rebound in 4 mins. Terrible!

Hueitt has a huge wing span. Seems like I read something like 6'10" last year.

It would be nice if his height was 6'10". He would be like a Magic Johnson type shooting guard and could easily get his shot off over the other guards. Imagine all of the rebounds he would be getting then!

Yes, no doubt.

But it wouldn't be as fun watching him in the Duke uniform he'd be wearing then.

Agreed.

On the other hand ...... it hasn't been all that great watching him in his ODU uniform either thus far. Hoping business will pick up some before too long there.

Didn’t see the game and can’t find video but the stats say he had a decent game. Anyone know for sure?

Is BSullivan any good? Haven’t seen much about them in the paper. Top teams seem to be Lake Taylor for sure and Maury. LT has been destroying teams.

RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018
247 has added Kalu Ezikpe to ODU's 2018 basketball commits. However they lowered his rating along with lowering Jason Wade's previous rating as well.

I believe they were both in the 85. range...... NOW.

Kalu Ezikpe 0.7778

Jason Wade 0.7778

Typical........

Now all 4 on list..... https://247sports.com/college/old-domini...ll/Commits

Now that they have added Kaul Ezikpe, ODU went from 3rd in the conference to fourth adding a rated player... ????

Conf rank.... https://247sports.com/Season/2018-Basket...ence=C-USA

These ratings mean very little, especially considering how they are manipulated by the "Powers to be" to fit a scenario. I question what they saw in the last week or so that justifies the change.

I THINK THAT THIS CLASS WILL BE SPECTAULAR. Would love to get one more BIG MAN to round out this class.

Old Dominion Hail

UPDATE


I talked to Evan at 247 last week about our recruits. I noticed that they have re-graded the two basketball commits that they had down graded back to their original grade.

Ezikpe...... From the down grade .7778 back to his original .8556

Wade.... .. From the down grade .7779 back to hi original .8556

With that change ODU's 2018 class is NOW 2nd best in CUSA

I really like this class as well. Especially Reece and Ekikpe. And I will take others word on Wade.

It's a shame people still rely on this site to judge how well recruiting classes are.

Reece has been going nuts. Wade has also been lighting it up. I would imagine his rating will jump soon. We will likely have the number 1 class in CUSA once they appropriately rate Kalu and have him signed with us.

Not when the rules change in the middle of the game.

2/47 is Horrible at covering basketball. Football is their forte and I'm not sure how good they are with that.

Yea..What the hell is that all about. Kalu was gaining interest from P5 schools. Oh well.

That's why he had a higher rating. Once they realized he signed outside the power conferences, they dropped his rating.

Really looking forward to seeing who else we add myself! Euro? Juco? Freshman? A graduate transfer? Or two from the above, the combos are intriguing if we go for two. (don't we have two slots) Intriguing no matter.

3* on Rivals
2* on VC
2* on 24/7

Notable Offers: VCU, UAB, Towson Murray St, UMass, LaTech, MTSU.

Regardless of 24/7 rating looks solid.
