I was just talking to my uncle, who was my high school basketball team's HC, and in 3 years took us from being a 5 win team to the state's final four. He has over 20 years of coaching experience in NE Ohio at the high school level. He's also a die hard Buckeye fan. Anyway, he's seen Dallas Lauderdale play twice this year in person, and he told me that if he plays a minute next year he'll be shocked. He's not any good, and he couldn't believe the Buckeyes offered him a scholarship. He went on to say that with the kid's attitude he'd likely be off the team by the end of year one.
Mac has said Lauderdale is trash all along, and has taken a lot of heat for it. Now, that is not to say that Mac's not a hater, we all know he is :chuckles: , but you can hate and still make accurate evaluations.
Btw, it wasn't all bad news. My uncle has seen Koufos play many times in his high school career, and he says he's a fantastic player. He says that him playing beside Oden (hope, hope) would just be scary.
