I wouldn't say it's hot at all given what he inherited and what he has brought in, but he does need a solid year this year. He's at the put up or shut up portion of his tenure.

It is imperative that we bring in another top 15 class next season. We don't have to have a several top 20 players, but we do need to bring in some very solid guys that we can build on.

Yeah, I feel like we need around a top 15 class every year to become a top program

I'd happily take something in the 30s for this year. I don't feel confident about getting a single guy we are after.

While I agree about taking a top 30 class this year, I think you should feel confident about one guy. Javian Fleming may not be ranked, but Avery has been all over him for over a year now. I'd be pretty surprised if we didn't get him.

I don't claim to be an insider. My percent chance picks are basically guesses based on where the guy is from and what I've read about them. The favorite comes from 247's stuff which isn't very reliable this early.
These are just the guys I would recommend paying attention to. You can follow EYBL here D1 Circuit
I'll post notables from the Adidas and Under Armour circuits once they get their information together, but the EYBL is the best summer league. 66 of ESPN's top 100 players in 2017 played EYBL, and from 2012-2016 CBB national champions averaged 5 former EYBL players on the roster. I'm not sure about this year's UNC team.

Chances for Robert Woodard are way higher from what I hear. MSU might be the favorite but if they are we're right behind. He is our #1 priority.
Posted on 4/20/17 at 3:19 pm to Gongora
I just read in the EYBL preview that he chose to play for Mississippi Express because he wanted to put Mississippi on the map. Also, he's a MSU legacy. That's why I put it so low. Like I said I don't claim to be an insider. I'm basically guessing.
Kira Lewis is also playing for Miss Express.

It's hard to say because we don't know the status of guys like Armond and Key, and we don't know if Sexton will be one and done. A guy like Hall could also declare for the NBA after this season.
At the moment we have 1 scholarship available, and we know Riley will graduate so at least two. Probably more.

Sorry my post probably didn't come out right. I'm not trying to criticize. I'm passing on info. We have a legit shot at him. That's all I'll say.
I thought Woodard was playing with Da House this year. I could be wrong. That's same team as Fleming.

They played with da house last year. Probably went to better teams to get better exposure.
Posted on 4/20/17 at 4:00 pm to Gongora
They both played for Da House last year, but they both decided to play for "shoe teams" this summer. Fleming along with Myreon Jones is playing for Team Thad in Memphis in the Under Armour Association now.
I think they might go back to playing for Da House once the summer circuit leagues end. They probably wanted to face better competition.
