check out Dacian Spotted Elk (no, there's not joke here. he's Native American).....
Endless energy and the kid can really play....he's fast too....
He's the type that will either end up at a small school and score a lot of pts....or end up like Jorge at Cal, and just work his tail off every play, and be a glue player.
I think I saw that Pops wrote a blurb about him a few years ago.....Dacian's will be a Sr. next year.

Findlay ought to look this kid up, he'd be a great fit between big named players....his HS team is terrible, but he got them into the playoffs and nearly beat the #2 seed (went to OT).
He's one of those kids you come away impressed after seeing him, but he doesn't get the attention....I'm sure the lack of precedent (a real native american making it big), doesn't help.
