He's DEFINITELY high on our radar. Requests have been sent to have the Recruiting list updated, but please note that Buff's (& everyone's) attentions are focused on the Tourney right now.
When you get a chance, can you please edit the Thread title & get his name spelled right?

I was actually sitting here wondering if that was his name and how one would actually go about pronouncing "Jospeph."

What class is he? 2008? You heard he's a lock? I suspect he'd go to MSU if they gave an offer.

Yes, 2008. While noone is a lock before they sign an LOI, he would be a great get for the Hoyas.

ON that message board they say he is a lock and that JT III has the WCAC on lock down right now. One guy went further to say that Joseph is ready to verbal for the Hoyas.

This is the second time I've heard Kris Jospeph has already verbal to G'town, JT3 has wcac on lock right now. How many ships do they have anyway?

No, I have access to all of scout.com, so I can read any message board. Just went a little deeper to give people on this board more info thats all. Come on man, I was born at Georgetown Hospital. No way am I a under cover MD fan brah please. I was born into this world with Georgetown Blue in my BLODD.

I like the service that the UMCP board provides. While we go further in the tournament than them, its very nice of them to chronicle our successes in recruiting as well. They should be lauded for this service - this information might have otherwise gone over-looked at this busy time.

I LOVE reading a Cuse blog that has Syracuse as "clearly in the lead for this kid"...high comedy.
With Amaker out at Michigan my guess is that knocks them out.
Go Hoyas! Take advantage of the run.
Nice recruiting tool...one of 4 teams to go to the Sweet 16 twice in a row...
This should help the '08 push even more....tough to sell against us.

I love our strategy of mining the local area first and foremost. This is great and will help lead to more Hoya fans in the area. We should get more casual fans supporting the Hoyas if they love Chris Wright or Freeman or Joseph. It's a great strategy for building the program in the right way.
Sprinkle in an outside recruit, but just mine the local waters.

shouldnt we forget about 3 star recruits now, considering the way JTIII can recruit? you would think this guy wouldnt even be on OUR radar now. but i am sure that JT III knows what he is doing. a guy like this i am sure will do what jt iii wants in the system.

Not at all. Success is predicated on being able to put together a well-rounded team with complementary skill sets. Because the recruiting services tend to overemphasize a single skill (scoring), it is important to mix in a number of recruits who have different skill sets that might not be as appreciated as pure scoring. Every team needs players who can fill a role, without needing to be a star on the team. I suspect that this is what JTIII has in mind for Omar next year, and to the extent that Omar is prepared to play that role, he will be a success even if he's not playing 35 minutes and scoring 18 points a game.

From everything I have heard, the guy is a stud. If he has verballed like the terp poster said, why wouldn't they announce it? Is there a legitimate reason to keep it from the public?

The "star system" is manure--but if you want to be honest--this kid is best JR in area--he's BIG TIME. He's already on record as saying he won't attend Michigan State and he grew up a Cuse fan due to location in Toronto--but he's a major priority for Hoyas and getting a commitment from Joseph would likely mean having the two best recruits from WCAC for 2nd year in a row-and possibly 3 if Braswell stays at DeMatha--but rumors are he's leaving. Joseph is a Reggie Williams type of forward--he can do it all--although he's already thicker build then Reggie was--he's similar in all around game/talent. As far as I'm concerned he's a MUST GET for next year's class.

I trust our resident recruiting guru's (RDF) opinion of the kid's talents. Jersey, where are you on this kid?

DON'T let the rankings fool you on Joseph. A lot of people who really know the game are suggesting he's the best junior in the area (including Clark and Braswell). Rivals has yet to really notice him, and when a Hoya fan asked Jerry Meyer (the top basketball recruiting guy there) he straight up admitted that he has yet to see Joseph play. Kris is Canadian so he hasn't really gotten a lot of run on the AAU circuit here, which is where the recruiting "gurus" do most of their scouting. He'll be on one of the All-Met teams despite playing out of position on a weak team. Once this summer passes and he plays some AAU ball, we'll have a better idea of how he stacks up. But from all the good things I've heard I really have no doubt that he's definitely a top 100 4-star caliber player. In general putting too much stock in recruiting rankings isn't a good idea but with Joseph they're even more misleading.
