Sick.

He's a four star prospect, http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p= ... id=2820423 , with offers from USC, ASU, Arizona, Washington, UNLV, Georgia, and St. Johns.

Kind of scrawny for a 6'6"-6'8" PF but he can either put some weight on or become a SF. Lots of potential.

My guess is he'll play SF wherever he goes. Reminds me a bit of that Anthony Jones kid @ Baylor, although Jones is more perimeter oriented in comparison to Polee.

You got to love we are getting a visit from Dwayne just hours after receiving news about Altman coming to Oregon. If he could seal the deal here, that'd be a great start!

Interesting. Was he interested before the news of the new coach?

I remember seeing us on his interest list about a month ago, but nothing more than that.

I wonder if Humphrey or Crittle will reconsider their plans to transfer. They may see a new opportunity under Altman. He runs an uptempo game that they came here for but Kent never fully put in. If they don't stay, there's got to be some other recruits that Altman can bring in to help. This team is in desperate need of some 3-point shooters and a post player.

Polee would be a huge pickup this late in the game. The Terrences seem like very unlikely options.

Agree, I'd love to have Humphrey back. This team needs all the shooters it can get and Humphrey is a pretty good defender too. Don't really want Crittle back. He seems like a good kid, but not a great fit.

Another Dunkfest...

It's always possible the Terrances aren't on Coach Altman's radar, or he not on theirs.

Rumor is the Altman knows his dad already, and that's how he is able to get a visit this late in the game.

He looks like Durant when he goes up for the dunks..They are both so scrawny but get way the hell up there!

What kind of range does he have? If the only thing he can do is dunk, then he would be a serious project.
