Luis Montero did not have enough eligible classes and is unable to graduate in time to be part of the USF 2015 class and will reclassify to be a sophomore junior college 2016 recruit.
This delays his arrival at USF till 2016-2017 season where USF really needed his scoring and will have only 2 to play 2.
They will also have to fend other teams off for him for another 9 months unless he is allowed to sign this spring which I don't think he can do.
Transferred to one of the top juco programs in country in Idaho, he did not play this season.
If the other top signee Tulio Da Silva doesn't qualify for this class either like Russ doubts he will, this class as it stands to be a disaster void of any impact players and any top 150 players, worse recruiting than Stan who brought in impact players like Corey Allen, John Egbunu, Chris Perry, and Troy Holston.
Without Da Silva and Montero and top talent replacements for this class, we are looking at the bottom of the barrel again next year losing a guy who scores half of his teams points on some games, 2nd leading American conference scorer Corey allen. If Russ is right on despote what Perry Says, and I trust Russ, our top returning impact front court player will be gone as well with career ending medical condition.
Outside of Troy Holston, who are the shooters and scorers going to be to replace all of Corey Allens and Chris Perry and Da Silva and monteros scoring and projected contributions?
Russ says Roddy Peters is a project, AC (great true pg) can't score or shoot consistently and needs great scorers and shooters to dish to, cousins is terrible, and Bo despite his hustle (hes earned a spot on team) can't shoot and score, and Guerrero disappears almost every game offensively because he has no other front court to back him up or play next to him, and his offensive man he's guarding out plays him every time because he can't defend other than the occasional shot block because of his length.
Where are all the impact HS top recruits antigua is expected to bring for this class th at are expected to bring the shooting and scoring next year that we so desperately need.
Weve got a undersized 6ft shooting guard whos other best offer was like Hofstra, and the other guy is an undersized 6"6 power forward ranked the 330 player in nation, and he will need a couple of years to be serviceable if ever (see dre clayton and zeigler playing power forward). This class is not looking good, he has no experience coaching but he's expected to bring in players and talent better than what Stan brought in the last 2 years in impact players like Allen, Egbunu, Perry, and Holston.
Next season is not looking good unless has a couple of recruiting aces and immediate impact transfers up his sleeve.
You guys agree or disagree?
As a season ticket holder the last 2 seasons and supporting the program the last 20 year, I can't take another season like this year which will go down as the worst since the dreaded McCollum Era we diehards all survived.
I'll renew but it could get ugly next year.
Russ, what's your take on the impact players coming in for this 2015 class and how antigua 3rd class 2016 is shaping up? Is help really on the way as we are hearing?
