I like Knapke's offense a lot. I also see a drive in him to improve. His defense needs work. He plays 6-11 as a help defender but man to man he still plays small. Hopefully, he can improve technique and keep getting stronger. However, I think he's more of an offensive big who would be better off playing next to someone who is a more natural post defender with a stronger center of gravity.

I have a contact at Illinois PrepBulls-Eye who told me that 2018, 6-8 Recruit, Ryan Davis is in the "same mold" as Nathan Boothe. He says that Davis is a versatile, Big who can play the 4 or the 5, is strong on the glass, a good scorer in the post and has a face up game to match. He added that he needs to improve on his footwork but has lots of upside. He also spoke highly of 2018 Illinois Point Guards, Kendle Moore and Kaleb Thornton who Toledo has offered.
