Quentin Thomas to UNC

I'd agree with sly for now. I think Roy is done recruiting this year. Howard is going to the NBA. Really, he'd be dumb not too. He is top 5 guaranteed.

Quentin Thomas (what I've heard):
Thomas has great "potential" and is getting better and better every time out. He has great quickness for his size and is a good, not great shooter that is improving that part of his game. As a distributor, Thomas is a true point guard - something that Curry and Ginyard aren't. He is a game manager with the tools to be a nice defender as well. He needs good coaching and development to be an NBA starter but he has that kind of potential.

Livingston (what I've heard): His size and athletism make him stand out. He would be a legitimate #1 pick candidate if he came out especially considering he is a PG and Howard projects at PF and not Center. He will be a great college player even if it is for one season and will be very difficult to deal with. He isn't a lights out shooter, mainly because he doesn't have to be. He breaks down defenses well and he can go to the hoop and finish like a SF with that size and skill. He'll demand double teams to get it out of his hands. He and Reddick would make a scary combo.

That said, Quentin Thomas is a wirey player as well at the point with good size/quickness. Ginyard is similarly long with good height and is a good defender. The Heels are going to be tough in the press with great quickness.

 

Ginyard and Thomas will complement each other well.

 

Personally, I am hoping Livingston does go to Duke.

As sly has stated before that would just add to the Duke/UNC rivalry mystik and there would be some titanic matchups on the way. Those 2 regular season games are already some of the best in sports for me. We'll be talking about 1 vs 2s with those recruiting classes.

 

no flame....
until the NCAA and NBA solve the problem of 18 year olds going pro, the Duke-UNC rivalry will not be the same.

 

you wreak'n

 

I agree... same way with EVERY NCAA Rivalry across the country
