2015-[/B]
Elijah Thomas- 5 Star- 6'9 250 lbs- C- Rivals- 9 Scout- 12- ESPN- 6 Arrow Index- 2 up
Bio- A bruising post player in the mold of NBA star Zach Randolph. Elijah Thomas has a complete arsenal of post moves, with range out to 15 feet. Thomas is very athletic for his size. He also is an exceptional passer and shot blocker.
Location- Lancaster, TX High School/Prep- Lancaster AAU- Team Texas Elite
Prediction- I fully anticipate Thomas signing on the dotted line to be a Rebel.
Stephen Zimmerman- 5 Star- 7'0 230 lbs- C- Rivals- 4 Scout- 5 ESPN- 4 Arrow Index- Lateral
Bio- As multifaceted as it gets for a 7 foot player. Big Zimm literally can do it all. A game changer in every sense of the word.
Location- Las Vegas, NV High School/Prep- Bishop Gorman AAU- Oakland Soldiers
Prediction- It looked like UNLV was completely out of the race for his services. Now that Coach Miller has come on board, we have as good of a chance as anyone.
Horace Spencer- 4 Star- 6'7 195 lbs- F- Rivals- 79 Scout- 34 ESPN- 44 Arrow Index- 2 up
Bio- A workman extraordinaire. Spencer will get in there and mix it up with anyone. His offense needs work, but he is a monster defender and on the glass.
Location- Henderson, NV High School/Prep- Findlay Prep AAU- Gym Rats
Prediction- Will probably be the first Rebel to commit for the 2015 class.
Alonzo Trier- 4 Star- 6'3 185 lbs- SG- Rivals- 38 Scout- 20 ESPN- 23 Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- Frankly, this kid is unstoppable on the offensive end. Just ask Findlay Prep. This bully boy guard gets buckets in every shape and form.
Location- Rockville, MD High School/Prep- Montrose Christian AAU- Athletes First
Prediction- There's a strong connection there after the signing of Pat McCaw. I think Simon gets it done for us.
Jalen Coleman- 4 Star- 6'3 180 lbs- SG- Rivals- 31 Scout- 25 ESPN- 58 Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Coleman is another guard that can score anyway he likes and is a dead eye shooter. Unlike his counterpart Trier though, Coleman does it with a silky array of moves.
Location- La Porte, IN High School/Prep- La Lumiere School AAU- All Ohio-Red
Prediction- Wait and see mode.
Eric Davis- 4 Star- 6'3 165 lbs- SG- Rivals- 34 Scout- 32 ESPN- 28 Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- His game is very reminiscent to Jalen Coleman. Both are finesse guards who have dynamic arsenals at their disposal. Out of all the shooters we're looking at, i'd say that Davis is the most willing and able passer of the bunch.
Location- Saginaw, MI High School/Prep- Arthur Hill AAU- The Family
Prediction- Wait and see mode.
Dwayne Bacon- 4 Star- 6'6 185 lbs- SF- Rivals- 33 Scout- 21 ESPN- 40 Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Think BDJ with out the baggage
Location- Fort Pierce, FL High School/Prep- Oak Hill Academy AAU- Showtime Ballers
Prediction- None.
Nico Clareth- No Star- 6'4 180 lbs- SG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- A guard in the mold of Alonzo Trier in that he is very physical. Can really take over a game with both his scoring and passing abilities. Very underrated.
Location- Towson MD High School/Prep- Calvert Hall AAU- DMV Elite
Prediction- None
Mamadou Ndiaye- No Star- 6'7 185 lbs- SF- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Still waiting to get my first glimpse of this under the radar player
Location- Columbia, MD High School/Prep- Oakland Mills AAU- DMV Elite
Prediction- None
2016- [/B]
Thon Maker- 5 Star- 7'0 200 lbs- F- Rivals- 3 Scout- 3 ESPN- 1 Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- A phenom with an unreal skill-set. Thon is like a stunning mix of Durant and Garnett. U have to see it to believe it.
Location- Martinsville, VA High School/Prep- Carlisle School AAU- Team Loaded
Prediction- Many will disagree with me here, but i think he's ours for the taking.
Derryck Thornton Jr- 4 Star- 6'1 160 lbs- PG- Rivals- 20 Scout- 11 ESPN- 24 Arrow Index- 2 up
Bio- A dynamic PG who is just as good with his left, as he is with his right. So much so, i'm not sure he has a dominant hand. He has stellar vision and handles. Can score with equal fervor.
Location- Henderson, NV High School/Prep- Findlay Prep AAU- Dream Vision
Prediction- Will be a Rebel, and early.
VJ King- 5 Star- 6'7 185 lbs- SF- Rivals- 7 Scout- 6 ESPN- 6 Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- Probably the best scorer in any class right now. His jumper is a thing of beauty and he makes getting his own look effortless.
Location- Akron, OH High School/Prep- St Vincent St Mary AAU- King James
Prediction- Word is that he and DTJ are a package deal. Time will tell if that's true or not.
TJ Leaf- 4 Star- 6'9 210 lbs- F- Rivals- 17 Scout- 13 ESPN- 25 Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- TJ is just nasty. The kid can throw it down on u just as easily as he can eat u up in the post. Has great vision, range out to 3, and runs the floor like a gazelle.
Location- El Cajon, CA High School/Prep- Foot Hills Christian AAU- Compton Magic
Prediction- Wait and see mode.
Justin Jackson- 4 Star- 6'7 210 lbs- F- Rivals- 24 Scout- 22 ESPN- NR Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- Reminds me of Shep in all honesty. To me their game is like a mirror image of one another.
Location- Henderson, NV High School/Prep- Findlay Prep AAU- YAACE
Prediction- Depends on how a few other pieces fall into place, but i really like where we're at on this one.
Trevor Stanback- 4 Star- 6'10 210 lbs- C- Rivals- 41 Scout- 42 ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Is basically the antithesis of what his brother was for us. Trevor is great shot blocker with solid instincts and he already has a very polished post game. Moves over both shoulders are well within his means.
Location- West Hills, CA High School/Prep- Chaminade AAU- Pump N Run 2015
Prediciton- Would love to get a legacy commit out of him, but his recruitment is hard to read at the moment.
Zach Collins- 3 Star- 6'10 210 lbs- C- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- I haven't paid much attention to this kid to be honest. Will be watching him closely this summer though.
Location- Las Vegas, NV High School/Prep- Bishop Gorman AAU- Dream Vision
Prediction- None
Kwe Parker- No Star- 6'2 165 lbs- SG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Outside of Seventh Woods, this is the most exciting player regardless of class. A true to form human highlight reel. This kid has unreal leaping ability, but isn't just a dunker. Parker also has a nice handle and a smooth jumper. Very underrated.
Location- Fayeteville, NC High School/Prep- Trinity Christian AAU- Carolina Diamonds
Prediction- Wait and see mode.
Jermaine Haley- 6'7 185 lbs- PG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Just popped up on my radar, but i want this kid to be a Rebel based on the research i've done. Incredible handles, vision and instincts.
Location- Burnaby, Canada High School/Prep- Canarais Basketball Academy AAU- Drive Basketball
Prediction- Wait and see mode.
2017-
Troy Brown- Projected 5 Star- 6'6 180 lbs- PG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- Anfernee Hardaway incarnate. Kid is going to be a star.
Location- Las Vegas, NV High School/Prep- Centennial AAU- Las Vegas Prospects
Prediction- Too early to tell.
Christian Popoola Jr- Projected 4 Star- 6'4 180 lbs- SG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- A savvy lefty who is already showing signs of being a prolific scorer and shooter.
Location- Las Vegas, NV High School/Prep- Bishop Gorman AAU- Dream Vision
Prediction- Too early to tell
Charles O'Bannon Jr- Projected 4 Star-6'4 160 lbs- SG- Rivals- NR Scout- NR ESPN- NR Arrow Index- 1 up
Bio- Kid is already nasty. Excels in the midrange game, but is lights out from the arc too. Will be better than dad when it's all said and done.
Location- Las Vegas, NV High School/Prep- Bishop Gorman AAU- Vegas Elite
Prediction- Too early to tell
Matur Maker- Projected 4 Star- 6'10 195 lbs- C- Rivals- NR Scout- NR- ESPN- NR Arrow Index- Unknown
Bio- Not nearly as dynamic as his older brother, but few are. Still, he is impressive in his own right. A rangy shot blocker with a burgeoning post game.
Location- Martinsville, VA High School/Prep- Carlisle School AAU- Team Loaded
Prediction- Likely package deal with his brother Thon.
