I don't think any of them in this class are one and done caliber. That doesn't mean they won't try, but there's no one in this class with that Hawes/Wroten transcendent caliber talent. Even Roy and Ross weren't one and done caliber guys. I think they all play two years at least. If someone ends up better than advertised, great.

I have it on pretty good authority that Baby Boy is staying more than 1 year.dnc said:I don't think any of them in this class are one and done caliber.

Only exception would be if he was a projected sure thing lottery pick (not happening unless he has a monster season).
No idea about Chriss, but he's the only other player with a chance of leaving for the NBA. I seriously doubt he does. The 5 star kid from Maryland is a more likely 1 and done than the guys we already have. Assuming he actually signs with UW... -
Consider me skeptical about Chriss. He's listed as a 6'8" 205 power forward. I'm sure he's put on some weight, but even at 225 there's no way he's going to be one and done as a 4. I'm not sure he has the ballhandling skills to be a one and done on the wing.ThomasFremont said:

I'm really excited about him but i think Murray's much more likely one and than Chriss is, and I don't think Murray's one and done. I could see one or both of them being two and done though. -
Davis being local, I can see maybe sticking it out. This kid from MD I'm fairly confident about because he signs his LOI before the season starts. But Davis next year, the porter kid in 2 years and anyone else Romar subsequently gets to commit...I'm afraid are going to see Andrew Andrews and 8 freshman playing rat ball and winning 5 PAC12 games. There's going to have to be another sales job or plenty more coffee cups to get the kids not to decommit after this year's dreck Romar rolls on the court.

Hopefully the kid realizes Romar won't be his coach the day he walks on campus.

Not every coach is going to be calapari, but somehow the guy pulls all 5* frosh and gets them to play together by seasons end. Romar has struggled integrating high end talent to actual production and team play.Tequilla said:Just curious - how much have you watched them play?
Brown looks to be a legit 6'1" the last I saw him play ... he didn't look small and actively played on the interior.
My comments on Davis being Wroten-esque were not meant as a complement. They were meant more from the standpoint of being more interested about the individual than the team. In his commitment story, he made remarks about a number of guys coming in ahead of him are one and done.
Again, if he is going to scrap the bullshit offense he's run for the last 3-4 years, and go back to his defense that earned him the reputation he's living by over the last 4 years than everyone will be better.
It's romars job to get the kids from immature, babied, non defensive AAU binky sucking dipshits, and make them into actual basketball players.

I agree as well, but kids these days.dnc said:I don't think any of them in this class are one and done caliber.
