Title: Cooper Flagg
Post by: MuggsyB on July 08, 2023, 12:36:19 PM
I've been hearing a lot of buzz about this kid.  I can't think of a hooper from Maine.  Anyhow, I've read he could be the best American hs prospect in a long time.

Yes. Unless Cameron Boozer, who is in the same class (at least for now), is better.

The Athletic just did a piece on him; sounds like Flagg has enormous potential. That he can play at a high level, and that he's white, will push the hype-meter significantly.

I think that ranking isn't recent.

There's a lot of debate as to which is the better prospect, and the CBS Eye on CBB podcast spent time talking about both this weekend from Peach Jam. It depends on who you ask, but both are considered elite prospects.

All right, all right ... Shaka might as well get both of them.

My guess is Scheyer will. Flagg will reclass to 2024, Boozer will come in 2025 with his brother.

I don't like that guess. Please offer another!

It won't matter after we win the 2024 National Championship. Scheyer will get recruits who leave after one year, we'll cut nets and bathe in glory for years to come. Is that better?
