Basically, it breaks down like this: before changes were made to the recruiting calendar, college coaches had six days to evaluate prospects in grassroots settings in April, then 15 more in July, for a total of 21 days. Now, there are just 2.5 grassroots days in April, and only four in July. So 14.5 days of valuable recruiting time has been cut (for all prospects who weren't invited to USA Basketball or the annual NBAPA Top 100 Camp) and replaced by high-school-centric events run by state federations that received uneven reviews last month, if they even happened, and regional camps scheduled for later this month that most Division I prospects are expected to skip because, sources said, some of the same grassroots coaches the NCAA were trying to limit but couldn't are now using their influence to convince players to ignore the camps. "So the camps will just be a bunch of Division II players," predicted Evan Daniels, 247Sports' director of recruiting. It's such an unnecessary mess. It's the first year of the new recruiting schedule\calendar. Definitely needs some tweaking and now that they have experienced this new format they can improve it in bass vaaarious areas. One of the aspects I like is an opportunity to see prospects compete in different mediums. Coaches get to see prospects compete with their high school teams during the summer, see them compete in individual camp setting (NBA Top 100 etc) and with their shoe circuit programs. It's opportunity to get a more well rounded evaluation of a prospect. Improvements that can be made is add another 4 day period at the end of July with the travel teams. We always see some underrated prospect blow up in Vegas at end of July. It was just a couple years ago that Zach Novel dropped a ridiculous amount of 3's in a game in Vegas that got him some national attention and solidified him as a national prospect. Also most of those games are outside of the shoe circuits so you can see great matchups like Mass Rivals vs TTO or Compact Magic vs. Oakland Soldiers. I like that it's only one weekend in April. The student athletes are still in school and you don't want to take them away from that focus. I like that June is no longer completely closed off to College Coaches. I like that prospects can show more of their skill sets away from their travel coaches who might be pigeon holding a players game to fit the team's needs. Lastly I think it will be an atrocity if travel coaches try and limit the August opportunities for their players and that will only validate the Rice commissions assertions that the travel/ shoe circuit coaches have to much authority over these young men's futures.... |

The only person from this article that I wasn’t aware of was Caleb Dorsey. After watching some clips he looks like an interesting and underrated player. Seems to a primary ballhandler with good length. A wing with some versatility to his game and a solid stroke. Someone I’ll be monitoring moving forward. |

The guy can clearly shoot. It's hard to understate the importance of having guys who can put the ball in he basket. Given how undisciplined AAU is, if the guy shot 42% there, in a more structured offense designed to get him open looks, I think he could do really well. You'd expect that against bigger competition, his two point numbers could fall, but I think it's less impactful on threes. |

With his speed, and not being the focus of the other team’s defense, he’ll get plenty of opportunities for open 3s. Keep working hard, Dante. |
