Right. Just noting they didn't always go by Stackhouse Elite and played mostly in Canada as Northern Kings. Probably could have explained it better but doing 5 things at once at the moment...
So what is he a 3 or 4 star? Should we be happy about this, or like Jacob said is this a under whelming?

He was the top center on their board after July. I didn't see him because they were at different events, but I know he really impressed both Mick and LD in Milwaukee and became a priority from there...

I feel like if he was a 4*, he'd be a 4*. If we actually use all of our scholarships this year, I won't complain about him being in the class. I just don't like tons of diamonds in the rough on a roster of 10-11 players.
 

The reason I said underwhelming is bc I'm looking for a HS "headliner" in each class. We've had that in Caupain, Clark, Evans, and hopefully Cumberland the last 4 years. Not sure who that guy is for this class. Williams or McNeill would be nice. Not sure if they're quite on that level, but if we actually have a full roster, I'd gladly accept that.

I feel like Williams could be that guy. I'll take a somewhat raw, high motor, defensive minded post player. We've got a number of guys who can score on the roster already - I'll take a big time rebounder & rim protector on the roster who can probably play the 4 or 5 position to go along with Brooks.
 
Question for Chad or anyone that really knows...we are in the mix with McNeil Moorman Gaines and Williams as far as guards.. What are we going to do, add 2 of these players or 1 and then another big Man like epperson?

Yeah we've been wondering about help down low after Washington/Clark/Moore leave, so this definitely addresses that. If worst case we can rely on him to be a rim protector, you could do worse. I prefer we move to smaller lineup/4 out lineups anyway, so him not being a scorer doesn't matter much to me.

I'm not Chad, but I feel like it'll work itself out.

Maybe he will be like a Brhima from UCONN

But caupain wasn't a 4 or 5 star if I remember correctly.

one of these guys could have a career like career like TC, not like mick hasn't done well in developing 2-3 stars guys in to great players. His issue is more turning 4-5 star guys into superstars

Caupain was a year younger than everyone else in the class. Hard to imagine he wouldn't have been right there had he spent another year at the HS level. Probably not 5* but would've been viewed as a headliner. I think Chad said the original plan was to redshirt him too.
 
So far we've got Moore, the shooter we've been wanting for a long time. And now Nsoseme, which you can never have enough rebounding and shot blocking. Give me Epperson and Williams and I'll like this class a lot.
