Here is Nate's write-up - admin can take down if I have copy/pasted too much (link is insider)

Evaluation
June, 2009: Lubick runs the floor like a man possessed and will score in transition due to his sheer effort of desire to run the floor harder than his opponent. He has sneaky athleticism and though he does not look like a good athlete, he has enough bounce and quickness to play in the transition game. He will also rebound the basketball on both ends as well as finish in traffic with authority. Lubick plays with good intensity and rarely takes plays off. He also has the passing skills and jump shooting skills to play in the high post, which makes him a perfect fit for Georgetown's motion, passing game offense. Lubick has good moves with back to the basket and score in the half-court. He also does a good job of contesting shots and taking ownership of the paint on defense.

Starks

June, 2009: Starks has very good quickness and his jets allows him to attack the opposing team's defense, an aspect the coaches love to have at their disposal. Defenders cannot just back off him as he has range that extends out to 3-point range. Starks will also connect on mid-range, pull-up jumpers, getting good elevation on the shot. He plays as a scoring point guard and does a good job of playing in this style, but he needs to work to involve his teammates more at times. He also needs to work on his shot selection, as he tends to take difficult shots at times. He also needs to work on his tendency to over-penetrate and get himself into trouble.

yawn...ESPN always disappointing.

[nnb5]

I didn't see that Jones, Smith and Kendrick were considering Gtown. Did you post them here because they might be?

Sorry, this might be a dumb question...

[royski]

They are all considering Georgetown. ESPN is quite awful at updating school lists. We weren't on their list for Monroe for an extended period of time.

Nate's description sounds a little Mark Madsen-esque. I'm sure he is more polished offensively.

[summersshowers]

i'd love to get a mark madsen level player. the guy was a beast in college.

[chep3]

Yeah, if Lubick ends up a 2 time All American, I think we'd all be ok with that.

I like this part:

This athletic power forward keeps working and improving. Young's ability to dominate the paint on both ends of the court is what makes him such a strong prospect. He has the ability to run the floor and does so at times to look for an easy transition basket or an early post up. His back-to-the-basket game is developing and needs polish; he scores mostly on power and athletic ability although - but he does display a good touch inside. His jumper facing the basket is extends to about 12 feed, so that area needs development. Young great is on the glass - he is active and will go and get rebounds out of his area on both backboards. He does a good job scoring second-chance points and finishing dump-off passes up to the rim quickly and with power. On the defensive end, he is a physical presence who works on not letting his man catch and score. He also rebounds and blocks shots consistently. If he works on his skills and continues to play hard, he has the potential to be a top power forward in 2010.
