Tough question. I think I would be pleased with any of them. Each is talented in there own way. All of my opinions are based on watching some highlight videos which tell little of the entire story. I think I would rank them by what they bring that complement what we have.
Crabtree - more mature from prep school. Adds another long athletic slasher.
Peterson - Adds height to the wing at 6'8. He's skilled, but very little video is out there that is less than 2 years old. Rated highly in a good basketball state.
Scott - Another postgraduate, that is in range when he steps into the gym. Versatile. I think he could play the 1-3 spots.
Shaw - Very smooth player with a variety of ways to score. He is from CA and has many west coast suitors, so I'm not sure if he plans to stay east. Pretty quiet since the initial offer.
Peterson is quoted as wanting to now decide in the spring. If he does that, I think the spot gets filled & he misses out with the Tribe. I think Scott has shown a lot of interest, and, if he likes what he sees on his visit will get pressured to commit this weekend. Not sure where we are with Crabtree. He seems to like & have a good relationship with the coaches, but I get the feeling that he waits until spring. As for Shaw - no clue.
I get the feeling with no real movement on big men that the coaches may wait and address them in the spring.
As usual, I could be completely wrong about everything.
