Sometimes you recruit a guy to maintain a relationship at a school but not enough to actually land him.

Yes, I don't think he was a top target

His rankings were based on his play as a freshman/sophomore and his coach/father hyping him up on the recruiting trails. In all honesty he was a borderline P5 recruit as a freshmen. He didn't develop as much as he should have as a sophomore and then really regressed after his knee injury he sustained between his sophomore and junior year. Penn State allowed him to save face and "decommit" instead of embarrassing him by pulling his offer. He still has a lot of potential and is a good mid-major pick up but he didn't have a committable P5 offer still on the table when he picked Detroit. oh I see. Hope this isn't something that will up biting CSU in the butt. |

Personality is important to Gates and Gates also plays a certain style.
Sonny could be the Davis replacement in their system but that system hasn’t had a ton of success in the Horizon League and Sonny isn’t Davis.

They can have breakout season this year,if they improve defense |

I don't know much about the kid. However Gates tends to recruit a tallish backcourt. Charles Lee was quick, played good defense, and had a good shot. Where do you rate this kid using Charlie as the benchmark?
