Guest HowieP1 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Looking ahead to 2006: Derrick Caracter, one of the top prospects in the 2006 class, lists UK as one of his five favorites, along with Stanford, Georgia Tech, Connecticut and South Florida. The 6-9 300-pounder from Elizabeth, N.J., is considered likely to try the NBA draft after high school, but he told Rivals.com last week that nothing is certain. "I need to be at least a top-three pick in the draft," he said. "Otherwise, more than likely I will go to college." Caracter averaged 25 points and 10 rebounds last season and is ranked No.6 in the junior class by Rivals. http://www.courier-journal.com/cjsports/news2004/08/29/uk-C16-natl0829-8742.html Here is the Rivals Top 150 for 2006: 6 Derrick Caracter F  6-9/301 Elizabeth (NJ) St. Patricks  list http://rivalshoops.rivals.com/viewrank.asp?ra_key=811 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recruiting has picked up a notch lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HowieP1 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 All I have to say is that USF hoops has alot more hoop now because of the BIG EAST invite. The recruiting has picked up a notch lately. It will only get better.Here is the current 2005 class rankings from Hoopscooponline:http://www.hoopscooponline.com/members/toprecruitingclassestodatefortheclassof2005-2005.htmlI was surprised to see that they have Chris Howard ranked better than Zaronn Cann. Perhaps, that's because Cann is coming off a serious injury and they aren't too sure if he will regain his old form.BTW, Insiders just gave Howard 3 stars as they did Cann.http://scout.theinsiders.com/a.z?s=359&p=9&cfg=bb&c=8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just cant wait until he gets USF winning on the courts. I think he is going to do that, and I wont be surprised if we make the postseason very soon with McCullum at USF.
