too bad there is no clip of the dunk described in the article.  Sounds like what Henderson did to Zo in the NCAA's years back.

1 (Taylor)↓ = 1
2 (Ware)↓ 2 (King)↑ 2 (Allbritton) 2 (Smith) 2 (Branch) 2 (Johnson) 2 (Kromah) = 7
3 (Hollis)↓ 3 (Pellom) = 2
4 (Edwards)↓ 4 (Warren) = 2
5 (Katuka) 5 (Opoku) = 2

I would put Travis King as a PG.  Obviously he was a little slow for a pg last year because of the knee problems.  But I think a year of off season trainging and work on his point skills, he'll be fine as a combo guard.

Dywane Smith and Aaron Ware are both SF type players for GW.  Athletic wing guards who can score in low and on drives but not good shooters. 

Let's say Mat Allbritton will be leaving.  Branch probably not comming.  Branch would be a shame as he's the highest rated SG of the Johnson, Kromah, Branch trioka of SGs. It's surprising we haven't heard anything yet or that he announced another school. Maybe he's going the Prep school route as well and he'll be on Hobbs' list for net year.

Hollis will have to get most of his minutes at the PF spot as the other bigs (Edwards, Warren, Katuka and Opoku) clearly do not add up to 80 minutes of playing time.  Katuka = 20-25; Warren = 17-20; Edwards = 10-12; Opoku = 0.  That's about 55 minutes total so Hollis will be needed for about 25 as a PF.

PG: Taylor and King (combo)

SG: Johnson, King, Kromah, Branch (or another mystery recruit)

SF: Smith, Ware and a little of Hollis 

PF:  Hollis, Warren and Pellom

C: Katuka, Edwards and Opoku

Mister Days,

Was Kromah the last prospective recruit you were refering to?  Can we epect any more players to be announced soon?

Not impressed either by the names,though VCU has come up in the world.

Don't think he was really heavily recruited, but maybe someone else knows differently.

Have seen his height listed from 6'3 to 6'5 in the articles, so hard to tell his size other than that range.

Surely like the 45 percent from the 3. Hope he can make his own shot.

If he's signed, welcome to the Colonials, Mr. Kromah!

The only question for Louis is that he mentioned si freshmen coming in and we have si names but one of them apparently not coming.

Apparently not coming - Kinley Branch

Coming:

1) Warren

2) Smith

3) Johnson

4) Kromah

5) Pellom

Do we have any word on Kinley Branch yet?

It is somewhat surprising nothing has been said on his possible removal from GW's incoming class list in any of the recruiting publications.  He's a pretty highly regarded recruit and if he was going to sign somewhere else, you'd think that would come up somewhere. i think the official signing day is April 17 (?), so we should find out soon on many of these kids. 

Maybe Branch goes Prep school for a year and then comes to GW in 2010, assuming Hobbs still has his job.

Hooper,

Was the PG you're thinking of on campus yesterday?
