Speaking of overrated recruits, Ater Majok's probably leaving UConn

Things seem to be going south in Storrs in a hurry

Exactly, BIQ isn't necessary in HS, and is developed in college.

Some that played here:

Willie Kemp (top 25)
Darius Washington Jr. (top 5)
Anthony Rice (top 10)
Sylvester Ford (top 10)
Paris London (top 5)-top 5 name, anyway
Pierre Henderson-Niles (top 25)
Billy Richmond
Jimmy 'Snap' Hunter

Who mentioned Caracter? He turned out all right after he transfered, and he's now with the Lakers. How was he a bust??

And how was Telfair a bust?? You can't be a bust if you never played cbb, and as far as I know, he's still in the NBA.

Paulus was more of a bust as a football recruit.

McRoberts was certainly not a bust either. Hell, he made ESPN's top plays just two nights ago.

Rick Rickert and Josh McRoberts were rated at or near the top of their class. Neither dominated the college game, both were soft as Hell, and neither made/has made an impact in the pros, thus they were egregiously overrated. As was Greg Paulus, Brian Zoubek, and a slew of others. In a few years, I'm fairly confident we'll be able to say the same about Jared Sullinger, while Perry Jones is playing in All Star games.

What are you talking about, in terms of college impact? A ton of bigs stay more than one year.

Are you saying someone coming in as a highly ranked prospect should be a one and done and that's what you're basing it on?

Isn't this the college and high school bball forum? You could have titled it some of the most overrated NBA prospects. If you look at what Sullinger is doing now, for instance, he is living up to the hype, I believe. Personally, I'd love to see Sullinger stay in college because he could be one of those guys that just tears it up. But I doubt he will.

And if you are rated as a top prospect and you stay in college does that mean you suck? Maybe you do it because you wanted to get something done (like win a NCAA... something not very many NBA players have done, truth be told.)

You are right about Duke players getting hyped unjustly, but that's life...

Telfair wasn't overrated, he would have been great at Louisville. You can't grade players on what they ended up like in the NBA. I think he would be a starting pointguard (He starts on Minnesota until Flynn comes back, but thats minnesota) if he went to Lousiville

telfair

he was the next great pg before he was even 16....seemed like SLAM had him on the cover hyping him every week

As an IU fan Sherron Wilkerson. More disappointing. Very athletic but turnover prone in the system.

"a lot of duke players"

Domzalski was dumb enough to sign with (stack McDonalds All Americans) Duke. He could've been a standout on the West Coast. But hey, he got a good education.

**Sarcastic** · 01-02-2011, 09:05 PM

Felipe Lopez never lived up to the hype.

Also didn't help that Wilkerson was a woman beater of course.
