Will Buzz land another top 100 prospect for the 2010-11 class?

I hope so but I think it is unrealistic.

Almost no shot.  There are currently only 13 players from the RSCI Top 100 that have not committed and/or signed somewhere. 

Brandon Knight
Josh Selby
Tobias Harris
CJ leslie
Terrence Jones
Doron Lamb
Cory Joseph
Justin Coleman
Roscoe Smith
Ray McCallum
Trey Ziegler
Jayvaugh Pinkston
Shaq Thomas
Enes Kanter

Of those, MU has been involved with Harris, Jones, Lamb, Joseph, Coleman, McCallum, Pinkston and Kanter.  All but Coleman and Pinkston have eliminated MU, in some cases quite awhile ago.

It seems the only way it's going to happen is if some guys decommit in the spring due to coaching changes and decide to come to MU.  That or Buzz signs a fringe guy like Reggie Smith who blows up and makes his way into the Top 100.

Coleman has major academic issues and probably going the prep/JC route, and Pinkston has Vill and St. Johns as favorites.  Then there were none.

Pinkston announces Wednesday and Villanova is certainly the favorite. Today his coach was asked if he was down to two (Vill and Tenn). He said Pinkston is still considering five (including St Johns, Marquette and Seton Hall). So were probably a long shot but not out of it yet. Maybe Buzz can pull a very large rabbit out his hat.

He better pull something out of his hat. We need a top 100 post, and have not had one in eons.

Not a single one of the Top 100 players left is a true post player outside of Enes Kanter, and chances are he'll never play college basketball due to amateurism issues.

I voted "no" but want very much to be wrong.

Always a chance that some good players decommit in the spring when someone pulls a TT

If I am right, the absence of Junior will mean that there is little chance we land another top 100. 

I always thought that if Buzz can figure out a way to make the tourney this year and get to the second round or so, then he would get some good momentum and PR and land another top 100.  Either way, I still like 2010 without a top 100.  We can basically roll Junior into the 2010 class and with Jones and Blue, its pretty damn good.
