Needless to say Walton would be a very nice pull for the staff...
3. If you need a freshman next year to come in and knock down shots, what available senior are you focused on?
Bossi: In my mind, Kerwin Walton is the best shooter left on the board. I know there are higher ranked guys available, but Walton is a big-time jump shooter. Not only can the 6-foot-5 wing from Minnesota really shoot it, but he is a crafty defender who has some toughness to him.
Walton saw Arizona and North Carolina officially during the fall and both were in to see him in the last week. Recently, he’s made a couple of trips to Minnesota for unofficial visits and Arkansas and Oklahoma have been in. If I had to handicap it, I’d give Arizona the lead but Walton isn’t giving out many hints just yet.

We need guys who can shoot. He looks like a great option that would be a nice addition.

I wholeheartedly agree...but does anyone know of our realistic chances...appears we may not be the first to the party...any info suggesting that he may have interest in Georgetown, possible visit, etc...I also love the kid Reeves from Ga...same questions...we're showing interest in some very attractive players, but as always...gotta land the fish...

Does he remind anyone of Kenny Williams who we were involved with but ended up at UNC? Very good shooter, good size, but maybe not an elite athlete. Just watching a few mins of highlights that’s who came to mind for me...

This would be the highest ranked SG that Ewing landed. Arizona amd Has offered. We got involved late. Is there a solid reason to believe that the kid is interested in us?

Walton can really shoot it... Dude scored a combined 81 points in two games. Really impressed by his skillset, but unsure how well he fits with what we're trying to accomplish.

He's got some pretty well established suitors. I know Pat made a visit, but I don't think this one's very realistic.

We could use a Walton at Georgetown.
