Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - FIU Panther Fan - 09-15-2010 10:41 AM Darnell Harris a 6'8" Forward has verballed to FIU and Coach Thomas (those rumors about Coach jumping at any opportunity are really hurting his recruiting ability-end sarcasm). Harris is a ESPNU Top 100 player (83 overall). ESPN has the following on Harris: Quote:Strengths: The following links takes you to FIU's projected 2011 class (for those that are going to say, yeah, but they haven't signed ... In 2010, ALL of FIU's verbals eventually were signed). Of course this is all depending on Coach Thomas remaining at F I U (which we all understand) and his recruits making it on campus (get to studying boys). Both contingencies are applicable to EVERY team in the SBC. 2011 FIU Recruiting Verbals RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - Hilltopper2K - 09-15-2010 05:42 PM VERY NICE. You know, a lot of people say that it doesn't matter how much talent IT rounds up because he can't coach. I tend to think that if IT keeps rounding up this kind of talent then his coaching will take care of itself. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - FIUFanatic - 09-15-2010 10:16 PM Agreed. Good to see that IT keeps getting fairly good recruits to commit/sign with FIU, despite what the naysayers keep arguing/wanting. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - WestEndRaider - 09-16-2010 12:37 AM Nice pickup for FIU, they have really recruited well these past few years. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - FIU Panther Fan - 09-19-2010 08:33 PM From our board: Quote:Cedrick McAfee, a 6-2 or 6-3/180 combo guard from Memphis (TN) Melrose HS, has committed to FIU, according to sources, and to an article in scout.com. ESPN grades him with a 96 score, and ranks him as the #12 point guard in the nation, and #59 player overall in the nation, while Rivals rates him as a 4-star player, ranking him as the nation's #19 point guard and #74 overall player in the nation! Scout also rates him as 4-star and the #27 shooting guard in the country. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - CitrusUCF - 09-19-2010 08:44 PM Jesus, Isiah is sure reeling 'em in. Now just a question of whether he can coach them when it matters.

Now just a question of whether he can coach them when it matters. Or if he even WILL coach them. Cause you know he's gone as soon as he gets a better offer. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - FIUFanatic - 09-19-2010 11:27 PM One step at a time guys. Every SBC team is subject to coaches moving to "greener" pastures. First step is commitments. Second step is signing, and third step is to actually have those players sign enroll and play. At least, contrary to what some thought, Isiah is recruiting very good...actually, much better than anybody anticipated. Another great get by FIU and by the Sun Belt!

RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - CitrusUCF - 09-20-2010 09:29 AM I think they're going to win a pretty good amount of games off of talent + subpar coaching alone, but they'll never quite get "there" - wherever "there" is. If he ever manages to become a good coach, they could be scary good.

Ends up McAfee changed his mind. http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=9&c=2&cid=1004273&nid=4202280&fhn=1 RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - Paul of Troy - 09-21-2010 09:32 AM (09-21-2010 09:24 AM)Sun Belt Follower Wrote: Not so fast, guys.

Ends up McAfee changed his mind. He hasn't "changed his mind". We already knew he was going to make those visits to Aurburn and Baylor. I would assume that he would take an 'official visit' to FIU as well. Nowhere in that report (or anywhere else) does it say he has de-committed, only that he intends to make the visits already scheduled to the other schools. Scout is trying to make news where there is none. RE: Men's BB: New verbal for FIU - FIUFan - 09-22-2010 09:25 AM Please read the entire quote from his AAU coach here on ESPN: "FIU is still a strong consideration and Cedrick look's forward to visiting the campus...". http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/recruiting/player/news/_/id/74250/cedrick-mcafee He's the #59 High School player in the country add him to the #83 player in Darnell Harris and you can see this team making some noise down the road.

By the way, what do you think about 2 Top-100 players coming to one Sun Belt school? And don't forget, he's got 7 more schollies to hand-out. |
