The difference is Smart sounds like when he isn't playing well he finds ways to contribute.  When things were not going well for Sutton he imploded and played like a giant turd.

Great, do we have any kind of shot at getting either of them?

[Underdog Wildcat]

Smith, yes

Goodman, committed to Rutgers(and David Cox), so no

[steve dave]

There was some slobbering over Smith on twitter this past weekend iirc.

someone told telep they liked him more iirc.  91 seems like only kinda liked.

that was josh capers.  a regional guy for scout.  he wanted telep to validate his opinion.

[Underdog Wildcat]

I was honestly hoping for a little higher than 91, by my estimation that puts him in about the Top 125-140 range on the ESPN rankings, jumper from deep may not be as money as I originally thought(damn highlight vids) but it's good hear from reliable sources that he's a worthy high major talent.

but it's good hear from reliable sources that he's a worthy high major talent.

we are the number 5 team in the country and still forced to say crap like this about our recruits

this and we were on ESPN a bunch last year.

he's not the highest rated recruit kstate is recruiting, naysaying nabobs of negativity type retards.

+ FSKC, ESPN2, CBS, ESPNU.  the recruits are probably just waiting for the first commit and then they'll all commit- like when the a snowball rolling down hill, by the time it's all done GRCOAT will look like GRJOKE

the crap that frank pulls with sams and kelly can't help.

[mcmwcat]

[sys]

So just which suitors is he speaking with most often?

"Coach (Chris) Ogdon at Texas, Mr. (Frank) Martin at K-State, the coach from Missouri. They're all pretty good schools, though."

[WillieWatanabe]

i like.

[mcmwcat]

Mr. Martin 

[mcmwcat]

So Frank is our lead recruiter on a TX kid?  Does Figs have an eye injury or something?

Can someone photoshop that pic into some black elites?

[WillieWatanabe]

• SF Marcus Smart (Flower Mound, Texas/Marcus) has a terrific body and plays with a fire, but he goes through periods of the game without being productive. That should not happen as he is equipped with the tools, basketball IQ and athletic ability to be a force. His outside jumper needs work but Smart can be special.
