Give me some of your thoughts on who will be drawing lots of attention from colleges this season in the paint.

Cameron Howard- Timken

Josh Egner- Jackson

Mark Henninger- Jackson

Perry has a 6'9 soph but Ive heard that he wont see much varsity time but he mite be someone to look out for in the future.

[yellowandblue]

Does anyone know how good St.V bigs are.

[hs sports fan]

Does anyone know how good St.V bigs are.

Daylen Harrison, who is about 6'7", is arguably the best player in Summit County. However, he does not play in the post. I assume that, by big men, you mean post players. I know they have a lot of size, but only B.J. Brophy has much varsity experience. He only averaged about 4.5 ppg last year and seemed to be under-utilized when I saw them play. I'm sure he'll be getting looks from D-II, D-III, and NAIA schools though. Other players that should be mentioned that have not been already:

Nick Harney-Benedictine-Jr.
Jake Mays-Tallmadge-Sr.
Andre Pavloff-Walsh Jesuit-Sr.
Josh Jonaitis-Hudson-Jr.
Colin Geaney-Hudson-Jr.
Reggie Keely-Cleveland Heights-Sr.
Mario Hines-Garfield Heights-Sr.
Zach Wasson-Orrville-So.
Darryl Baldwin-Solon-Jr.
Zach Price-St. Edward-So.
Robert Wilson-Streetsboro-Sr.

[thehasbeen95]

Robert Wilson Plays A LOT bigger than his 6'4 6'5 muscular body frame. so does 6'4 Robert Stallion for Benedictine.

[thehasbeen95]

But to Answer your Question on who will draw Attention this season. Of course Cameron Howard from Timken. you have to mention Mark Henninger and Josh Egner from Jackson, Reggie Keely from Cleveland Hts, and of course the anticipated Return of Mario Hines of Garfield Hts. Also( If he plays which I think he will) Justin Jamison at Strongsville. Last but definately not least Nick Harney at Benedictine.

[thehasbeen95]

Sports Fan, did St.V's bigs improve any besides getting a nice talent in Jakkar Sampson coming in from Solon?

[thehasbeen95]

Also Cleveland Hts has another 6'8 kid that is extremely athletic and a good shot blocker. his name escapes me right now.

[HoopHound]

Who was the 6'4ish frosh starter from Revere that transferred? My mind's a blank on his name.... and can't remember WHERE he transferred to either, :blush:

Was the last name Weeks?

[thehasbeen95]

Was the last name Weeks?

His name is Will Weeks and he transferred to Garfield Hts Where he will be a good addition along with Carl"taye"Jones at the Point and 6'8 6'9 Mario Hines in the post.

[BDevil41]

That would be Will Weeks. I believe he transferred to Garfield Heights?

[BDevil41]

I was a little slow with that one. my bad

[thehasbeen95]

I was a little slow with that one. my bad

lol. well atleast your dead on with the info BD

[HoopHound]

Thanks guys... I guess I gotta lay-off the Canadian Club soaked kibble.

Weeks IS who I was thinking of. Kid MUST have grown to at least 6'5 or 6'6 by now. I was VERY impressed with his inside presence when I saw him play... great footwork and hands to boot!!

I don't think you can have a "NEO bigs" thread without including him.

[hssportfan08]

watch out for Lamar Mcknight from chanel. Not a true big, but dominates nonetheless

[hs sports fan]

Also Cleveland Hts has another 6'8 kid that is extremely athletic and a good shot blocker. his name escapes me right now.

According to MaxPreps, that would be senior Ryan Martin.

[BDevil41]

lol. well atleast your dead on with the info BD

haha thanks for not judging me

[Henry37]

I think the Householder kid from Tallmadge is even more valuable than Mays.

St V getting a kid from Solon? Yeah, that's right around the corner.

[THSBEEFCAKE08]

Josh Daniels 6'5 from Tuslaw.He is a stud.

[hs sports fan]

Josh Daniels 6'5 from Tuslaw.He is a stud.

Is there a reason he only scored 10 points last year?

[aauplayer]

One of the most athletic big man in NE Ohio is Jamell Harris. Easily 6'10" now, great wing span and can control the paint of D with his presence. Needs to be motivated once and a while but has all the tools to be very good

Already committed to Eastern Michigan.

Getting all of the players to play together, care about each other and forgetting the "I" and playing as a team will be Coach Joyces goal. Div-2 is a very tough Division in HS BB. As others have said "on paper" they look pretty good.

The thread starter asked who will be getting looks from college coaches, so I left Slack and Barnes off my list. Slack has committed to Miami (OH) for football and Barnes is being recruited by D-I schools for football. College basketball coaches will stay away from them.

[Bucky]

Cugini is 6'5". But not a big man. Neither is Hildebrant.

lorenzo definitely aint no damn 6-5

[Buckeye Brutus#10]

One big man to watchout for is Harding's new 7 foot move in from Alabama.

Great, Solon loses another stud hoops player. We lost Carl Jones, Reggie Keely, Sir Charles, and now Sampson. Well it's been due to recruiting and coachs, not grades I've heard. But you don't always know. Is Darryl Baldwin stable?

[HoopHound]

Is he the coach's son, '16?

[thehasbeen95]

Is he the coach's son, '16?

If he is I thought he was more like 6'9 but Cam Black is still growing so I will take 16's word for it. good fit for Akron. I like his game he just needs to fill out a lil more and he'll be fine.

[kent16]

Is he the coach's son, '16?

Ya hes the coaches son and his little brother is pretty good too he is about 6-4 250 and is only a freshmen. He prolly will play some Jv this year
