Depth, class management and needs are important where the program is at the moment. Boals had a front court need and was able to fill it.

I think the best barometer is, what schools offer a player? He had two AAC schools offer. Seems like that would put him in the recruiting niche Ohio should be aiming for.
Sometimes I agree with that, and sometimes I don't. If you look at three important players on the OU roster, that wouldn't be a good barometer. On the other hand, there are several where it's a perfect barometer in my opinion.

It's like any other metric or measure...they are only indicators. There are players who fall outside that. Still, among all the imperfect indicators, this seems the best assessment of potential.

I don't disagree with your point there Jeff.

I don't know how a kid like that even gets seen. Was at that school since middle school. Does not play summers with exposure and Covid does not let college coaches go to High Schools in person or games in person. I am stunned that any AAC schools have even seen him. It is easy to understand our connection given Sears and the coach we hired from Hargrave that watched him for 5 years but there are hundreds of kids not getting seen this last year that would have garnered offers from tournaments in summer or Prep programs. I am not sure what High School tourneys have taken place this year with fans.
