Watson has a huge upside and plays much bigger then 6'8". The more I watch of him, the more I love his game.

Really hope we are in strong contention for Watson.

Watson continues to impress me. He's mobile, active and has very good hands for a post. Outside of JJ Jr., the staff could bring in a heck of a 17 class without leaving the DMV.

Here's hoping we land our top targets. True indeed Enj.. The other problem is the lack of open slots right now for 2017, it's gonna be an interesting summer & fall..

"Big man Nate Watson of DC Premier snuck into the most recent 2017 Rivals150 at No. 143. Next time around he'll likely be a little higher.
A rugged 6-foot-8 insider, Watson did work when he got the ball on Friday night. He has good touch, he is efficient around the rim and he will rebound.
According to Watson his recruitment has really taken off. He listed offers from Maryland, Providence (Ed Cooley watched Friday), Clemson, West Virginia, Wake Forest, N.C. State, St. Joseph's, Virginia Tech (Buzz Williams watched) and Georgia Tech.
After some moving around between teams, Watson feels comfortable at Arlington (Va.) Bishop O'Connell and with DC Premier, and he feels like the stability has been good for his game.
"I'm just putting extra time in the gym," said Watson. "I'm working on all of my game and I'm really comfortable with where I'm at."

Watson has now become my favorite Post Player in the 17 Class that we are on. He might be a little undersized at 6'8" but like Chris Lykes, Watson plays so much bigger then his height. He's long, very active, great hands, soft touch with athleticism. What's there not to like about his game.

NATE WATSON, C, DC PREMIER, 2017: Offers continue to roll in for Nate Watson and after getting another look at the Bishop O’Connell star this past weekend, the 6-foot-9 center could see things heat up even further. If you are grading on the looks test, Watson passes with a breeze. He is more than just a good looking big man though as he has gotten a lot more athletic near the basket and productive each time out on the floor. The DC Premier junior played angry all weekend long as he scored with efficiency from 15-feet and in as he posted numbers on the scoreboard of 26, 12, 15, and 21…impressive, to say the least. His averages are solid all the way around showing off numbers of 16 points and six rebounds per game on 65-percent shooting; get ready to see a much more heated up recruitment with the 757-native.
