Recruiting targets
Posted: Thu Dec 01, 2011 1:48 am
With 4 open spots left (maybe only 3 if Altman decides to give a scholarship to someone like Chris Larson), there aren't many recruits left with Oregon still on their radars that could be of help next season. Of ones discussed so far, the ones I understand to still be in play are: Anthony Bennett, Phillip Nolan, Ricardo Gathers, and Clyde Santee. I don't really have a good feeling about Bennett or Nolan since they have some pretty solid offers from a lot better programs than Oregon right now. I haven't seen enough about Santee or Gathers to predict Oregon's chances with them. All of those seem to be post players, which the team desperately needs, but see almost no guards there. The only guards/SFs I've seen discussed so far have been Wannah Bail and Michael Carey, but those two seem like big reaches for Altman. Only way I see of getting a couple contributing guards will be the JC route and I can't seem to find any updated rankings/scouting reports on people for the 2012 class. Any others I missed?
