Because Daniel West, Philip Jurick, & Renaldo Woolridge all have question marks.

1. Daniel West is far better than his ranking indicates. In fact, he's easily one of the best point guard prospects in the Midwest.

2. With Renaldo's upside, it's easy to see why Pearl gave him an offer. He gets better and better everytime Forbes watches him.

3. If Philip Jurick develops a work ethic, he'll fainly erase his question mark.

I realize the 3 of them have the potential to be great D-1 players, however given where they are right now [as developing prospects], it's absurd to even contemplate that they're the National Champions of the future.

There's nothing more idiotic than future lineup assumptions with players that have yet to step foot on a college basketball floor, while the two the best players in the given lineup haven't even committed.

This future possibility would have a real shot:
Ramar Smith
Scotty Hopson
Tyler Smith
Wayne Chism
Brian Williams

How about with this possible rotation:

Ramar Smith > Daniel West
Scotty Hopson > Cameron Tatum
Tyler Smith > J.P. Prince
Wayne Chism > Duke Crews
Brian Williams > Philip Jurick (?)

Williams would definitely have to step up because the big man in the middle could definitely be the achilles heel of next year's team. Also, Jurick would have to be a pleasant surprise. However, that is a pretty athletic 10-man rotation.

A 9-man rotation is probably more likely, with Chism, Crews, and Williams in the rotation for the 4 and 5... with Tyler stepping in there when needed.

Pretty solid. C'mon, Scotty!

A kid named Joe Jackson at white station is the best I've seen. He is a soph.
I would put Leslie number two since he won the head to head.

Yeah, I guess you could make a case there. Who's the other one, Elliot Williams? He's a year ahead of McDonald so that's not really fair.

Which team is better? The team UT has this year or that lineup next year with Ramar and Tyler a year older? And what are the chances that they both stay?

Depends on the development of Williams and Tatum. If they progress as they should, Tennessee will be a better, more versatile team next year. Ramar will certainly be back. Tyler, I'm not so sure.

I believe Joe Jackson will be a better player than Elliot as well.
Elliot is a very explosive slasher, but Joe's mixture of athleticism and decision making is very rare, especially for a sophomore.
Leslie is a completely different style player than Joe and Elliot.
Joe and Elliot are more flashy type players with more modern-day moves. Leslie is the old-schoolm fundamental player.
I have always said Leslie's game reminds me of a CDR type player. He can be deadly from the outside, he can dunk on you, but his strength is his mid-range game.
