Is this the proper forum to discuss our current roster being taken over by the Matt Suther all-stars but we apparently quit on Custer?

Sure. It would appear Shannon Spradling and the gang basically tell us who to take off MoS and then steer the higher end guys elsewhere and we sit around with a dumb smile and do what we are told.

And Seton Hall.

His offer list is actually somewhat impressive (if truthfully accurate).

Neville Fincher did a strong job of utilizing his year at military school to the point that he raised his stock from a mid-major level talent into a high-major recruit. Now, the New Jersey native will play his college basketball in the Big-12.

A day after leaving Kansas State following a successful official visit, the 2013 6-foot-9 power forward out of Hargrave Military Academy (VA) secured his fate by committing to the Wildcats.

"The team is cool," he told Rivals.com following the visit. "The coaches like me me. The fans here know me. I like their style of play. It's in a city where there's no pro sports team out here so the Kansas State basketball team is important to everyone in this area."

A long and lean interior player with excellent athleticism and an ability to create havoc in the post, Fincher chose oscar Weber'steam over a number of high and mid-major schools. Kansas State, however, caught his eye, especially with their recent success under Weber.

He joins Jevon Thomas, Westicles and Marcus Foster in Kansas State's class of 2013.

He has an absolutely fantastic name for the protagonist of a book.

kitten_mittons · « **Reply #2391 on:** January 07, 2013, 12:26:35 PM »

I've only seen three things about this character, and each time he's gotten an inch shorter.

Scout had him 6'8" in 2011. Rivals says 6'10" now. ESPN says 6'9".

kitten_mittons · « **Reply #2393 on:** January 07, 2013, 01:55:56 PM »

I really wanted him to be 6'10"

You probably could have said similar things about Jamar a while back as well.

Not comparing the two, specifically, but if I'm not mistaken, that was his evaluation coming out of HS.

Quote from: kellis

Fincher said he was also recruited by Marshall, Seton Hall, Duquesne, Western Kentucky and Houston. He chose the Wildcats over that group, because of the school’s academic reputation and his strong relationship with assistants Chester Frazier and Chris Lowery.

does this dude want to be a vet

wabash909 · « **Reply #2398 on:** January 07, 2013, 05:20:23 PM »

So, basically he appears to be another DJamer.

Quote

From Phenom Hoop Report: 6'10 Neville Fincher of Hargrave is a strong and
physical center that is a willing rebounder. While somewhat raw
offensively, he should be a target for lower tier to mid major D1
schools.

If this is the caliber of recruit Weber is going to load this roster with, we're effed.

Mixed-Nutz · « **Reply #2399 on:** January 07, 2013, 05:39:29 PM »

Flincher got a lot more bounce than DJamer and is considered one of the best bigs remaining in the 2013 class. BTW I will take an athlete over skilled awkward loser.
