6'6" combo forward from Louisiana, Scout had this to say about Hoyas target over the weekend:
"Ricardo Gathers, PF, Riverside Academy – A strong 6-foot-7 power forward, Gathers is an imposing prospect that has a college ready body. For a guy his size he moves extremely well and has an impressive overall skill set. Where he can affect the game because of his strength and athleticism is on the glass. He reeled in a game high 11 rebounds to go with his 15 points...Ricardo Gathers rattled off a list that included LSU, Texas, Baylor, USC, Kansas, Syracuse and Georgetown. He said LSU and Georgetown were coming after him the hardest."

Not sure how this whole thing shakes out with only two schollies remaining from 2011-12. We do need some guards to help out Starks and Vee.
My guess is that Ochefu and Kyle Anderson are our top 2 which I think works out okay given their skill sets. But if Anderson goes somewhere else, it would appear we need to have a guard in the 2012 recruiting pipeline. It seems our primary focus in on big men again.

Let's not confuse the Board's focus with the coaching staff's.

I'd say he's probably favored to land at LSU being a hometown kid plus what would seem to be a priority for Ochefu and already a crowded front court, but worth the effort. #34 overall on Rivals #25 on ESPN #29 on Scout

Looks like the addition of Kirby has really helped in the south...
