Gotta wonder if that offer is still on the table with Mason's commitment?

Mc Bulldog (4/27/2011) Gotta wonder if that offer is still on the table with Mason's commitment?i hope it isnt. I saw VanFleet play several time this year- he is good high schoolo, player but I didnt see anything special- certainly not the shooting resume of Mason. Phelps needs to go after some bigs, even if they arent scorers- a defensive/rebounding guy like Joakim Noah.

Woods graduates after next season, and then Van Dees, Clarke, Uhlenhopp, Hawley and Simons all graduate the following year. Need to start restocking bigs now...otherwise, Drake's big men will all be freshmen in the 2013-14 season. Been there, done that. Didn't like it.

He's got to be the happiest guy in the Valley (that he didn't go with Drake).
What do you think now, Illinois? First team all-state and even then you didn't like him.

Great judgement. I've done the same. Reminds me of a story my Dad told me. At a Final Four in the early 60's after watching Virginia play, a friend of my Dad's said: "He's too slow to make it in the NBA" That player was Jerry West!!!:w00t:

If he had played for Phelps he wouldn't have been any good. Probably would have sat on the bench.

Drakey (3/23/2014) If he had played for Phelps he wouldn't have been any good. Probably would have sat on the bench.Well put Drakey. It would have taken a couple years of over practicing to get Fred playing hurt at High Level!

VanFleet wouldn't have fit in the Phelps system. To aggressive on defense taking chances for the steal. On offense pushes the ball ahead to fast. Not enough dribbling and using the shot clock until you have to throw up a desperation shot at the buzzer.
