If Shaka goes wouldn’t Coleman go to the NBA? Or is he not that good? Or if if is wouldn’t he go there anyway?

Get it done, JJ. Then go get us someone who can play in the paint.

Does JJ ever get off his fat butt and actually go visit any recruits at their homes?

Absolutely. But due to ncaa restrictions for covid, in-person recruiting isn’t even allowed right now.

Ive gotta think Coleman would be going to the NBA. Speaking of Shaka, it would take some getting used to, but I think I could tolerate seeing him as our HC if he wants to come back to Va. Wonder what BT would say about that LOL.

Matt Coleman currently isn’t projected to be drafted. UDFA, G League or overseas.

Does Shaka still take charges before the games?

With the covid-19 in place all year, is Greene, Trice and Curry eligible to play for ODU next year? Also with two player's in transfer portal, are we eligible to sign two more player's, for next year? This Saint Thomas kid looks real good but why so much ink, on the board? JJ doesn't seem to have at a chance, for a quality freshmen like that. It's not in his genes.

Yes, we have two open roster spots with Reece and Pilavios leaving.

As for your last question, you do realize he is actually rated lower than Joe Reece was by that same recruiting service?

Gilesfan if Thomas is not as good as Jaden, then why so many people are writing about him on this board? Jones no genes. Jaden is a 2 star!

Such a bad take.

I didn't say he wasn't, I said he "may not." Really, whats the difference between the 250th and 275th ranked recruit? Could it easily be flipped?

FWIW, I dont know what Jones no genes means.

Also, Im not sure where the best spot for recruiting rankings is. Rivals has him listed on their site as a 3 star, which is the same as what 247sports has. Rivals has Saint Thomas as a 3 star.

247 has Johnson at .8562. They have Saint as .87

Joe Reece was .87

Because some like to talk about recruiting on this thread. With transfers, recruiting is picking back up. One minute we say recruiting ratings don't matter, will go by who has offered and next we say he's only a 2-star. Going by the mixtape/highlights, I like the looks of Jadin Johnson, just spend a few minutes and watch his videos. I think he's a steal and a good fit.

They are a fun team to watch. Seem to be well coached. I don't know what Jadins numbers are but he has nice mechanics (probably needs to just speed it up a little). He has good size/athleticism.

I am rooting for them to get Saint as well.

Think 247 is the most useful for rankings since they do the composite. But at the 2* and 3* level, much like football, it’s not very telling. The difference of being a 2* and 3* is mainly based on their offer list.

I mean, you can go through the list of all time highest rated recruits in both sports for ODU and see what a mixed bag it is.

That seems logical. I also think they weigh size heavily, which obviously causes the rankings to be thrown way off at times.
