quote from Roscoe while he was Maryland's camp......
"I hope to have a decision on my high school by next week. Really, I pretty much know where I am going, but I can't announce anything at this time. I am just waiting on the final paperwork to get done." As for college, I have not yet begun to narrow anything down yet. Every school that is recruiting me is equal in my mind. There are no leaders, they're all the same.
"I don't have any timetable for a college decision whatsoever. Maryland is still in the mix, and they are recruiting me hard, but I need to get the high school situation taken care of first. "It is important that I go somewhere where I play great competition and play more games. We only played about twenty games a year at Walbrook....I need more games and stronger competition."

graeagle, how much impact will a switch in high schools have on the recruiting of a guy like Roscoe? I ask more from the idea of a coach like JT3 developing a good relationship with a high school coach of a top recruit, and then seeing the recruit bail from that program to go elsewhere. Or is a guy like Roscoe more likely to have his recruiting done thru his AAU coach or other people?

from what i've heard in the past Rosocoe's recruitment is going through his fmaily not his coaches. From what has been said in the past they're going about it the right way.

Roscoe is not getting an offer from UNC. If he does it will be later in the year (fall/spring). He is also going to take his official visits, so his recruitment won't play out for a while.

per scout Roscoe to attend Oak Hill Academy How does this impact us? Perhaps not at all, given that Roscoe's family is handling his recruiting. Graeagle, seems like I have a lot of questions for you today. ;D

If Gtown plays ucla, can we buy In and Out Burgers and sneak them into Pauly?

Not to get off topic Grae, but getting in and out burgers would be necessary and furthermore this said game would have to be over winter break so i'd be in l.a.

I think that could be managed with a little ingenuity. You know, like that guy in the commercial who dressed as a pregnant woman so he could sneak nachos into the arena.

Duke has offered Roscoe. They're hoping to get both he and Harrison Barnes.

Thanks Grae! - Sweetney's comback is inspiring me.
Duke is going to have some very unhappy players.
They have Ryan Kelly, the plumlee brothers, Hairston, and potentially at least one other big time recruit that is a forward - add on that Singler might stay another yr. and if Dawkins is not a true 2 - somebody is getting screwed (beyond Olek Czyz who really has to be wondering if he'll ever see the floor).

Duke is going to have some very unhappy players. There's a guy running a local AAU squad that could be a tad unhappy too.

Well #1, it wasn't actually true at that point. Sometimes kids say they have an offer when they don't and that was the case at that time, now he actually does have an offer from Duke. Beyond that, though, I view this board on occasion because it's the best G-town board on the net and my cousin is a big fan/recent alum so I try to keep up with them. I also know that Georgetown has put in a lot of time recruiting Roscoe and will likely be among his top schools until the end so I thought the information was pertinent. Duke is looking to bring in a monster 2010 class in both quality and numbers (possibly as many as 7 + a transfer in Seth Curry). K is trying to build the team in a mold similar to his Olympic team with lots of long, athletic, versatile forwards. He'll have Kelly, Hairston, most likely Barnes, and he's also looking to add 1 more combo forward in the class. Right now, Roscoe is at the top of that wish list in terms of combo forwards with Duke also looking at Dominique Ferguson and as has been mentioned, Terrence Jones. Duke's only offer in the 2011 class at the moment, Quincy Miller, is also a combo forward. I'm not sure I'd say that they're recruiting over Josh, but he's certainly not going to walk into a situation where playing time will be given to him. Finally, Tyler Thornton was told very clearly when he was being recruited by Duke that they would be pursuing a big time scoring PG in the class and he committed to Duke with that knowledge.

Guys,
I know you guys are all friends and all provide valuable info (and certainly have more ins than me) but what's with the constant and instant hostility towards anyone else? Maybe I'm walking into something with history here, but it doesn't seem like he (or previously (and especially) RB or anyone else) really deserves the assaults.
What am I missing?
