For all of you insiders:
Let's say Groce and Co. land Frazier and Goodwin. (What a class that would be!!!)
I know another big would be a priority, but wouldn't a bouncy long wing who can shoot the 3 who is also a coaches son like Terrence Lewis be a nice addition to the class?
I would love to add a quality big like Kiir, Culver, or John but I don't feel confident in landing any of them.
Finally, is there any concern that Goodwin will "McBride"? by that I mean be a really good h.s. player (b/c of being already physically developed), but just an average BIG player?
Not an "insider" and there's a very select few who seem to have good info, but I'll offer my thoughts.
Another big, as you said, would be ideal. I think those chances increase if you show a potential recruit who they would play with. Gray, Kiir, and Uyaelenmo probably all know Frazier since they are all from Florida.
Lewis would be a great addition. I wonder how many wings the staff wants to take, however. You could make a case for Justin Smith being able to play some 4 since he's 6'7" and can jump out of the building.
As for Goodwin, I doubt he "McBrides." Goodwin, like Ray Rice when he first arrived, could probably stand to become more lean and therefore more explosive. Also, like Rice, Goodwin is not a great shooter. He has a ton of room for improvement in that area. Lastly, his drive and competitiveness is something that will make him an impact player. I see leadership qualities like Tracy Abrams has displayed. He hates to lose, doesn't take plays off, and wants to guard and shut down the opposing team's best player. He did a good job against Rako who is 6'11" and going to USC in the state tournament.
