Senior stats, per On3:  26 pts,  8.8 reb,  4.3 ast. His team is 22-2. Not sure how good the competition is, but there are a few other division 1 players on his team and it's a prep school out of Phoenix, so I assume they play somewhat of a national schedule. 

 

He's listed at 6'7" 205 on their roster. Wiry and athletic. With Rhymes and Frager on the wing, there will be no lack of positional size and athleticism there. They can both shoot it, too. Only question is how soon they'll be ready to contribute. Rhymes will be a 20 year old freshman. 

 

I wonder about the level of competition as well, but he passes the eyeball test for me anyway. If he is the real deal he should be a solid rotation player as at 20 years old he will be the equivalent of a sophomore in college.

Just based on rumor mill, word-of-mouth kind of thing, I understand it might be more likely that Frager starts than Janowski. We'll probably be looking for a portal point if we have NIL money to go after one.

 

I know I will be in the minority here, but I'm not as high on Janowski as most seem to be. IMO, Frager has the higher ceiling and is likely to contribute sooner.

It appears we will need to find at least one more serviceable big and a point guard for next year.

Yep, a transfer lead guard and transfer post depth should be the biggest priorities.

My list:

Bigtime PG, spend money

long athletic wing who can shoot

Young 4-5 guy 

If Jano is not good enough to be a solid back up combo guard we will need to go find one of those as well. Hopefully Jano can fill that role and Frager and/or QR can be real contributors off the bench on the wing.

Thing I liked about that the most.  No looking at the other kid, show look at me, just the smile with his teammate at the end.  I am okay with some different and appropriate signs of emotions but not when it isn't "real" like many players do today.  ie... #13 from OSU the other night.

I thought back to Copeland a few years ago when he got T'd up and he hardly looked at the guy and this guy stood over Connor for a while and the officials did not have the guts to T him up.

Not the greatest of applause’s but it was at a weird time too. Hopefully he didn’t feel “off” with his big screen welcome. I think it was just at a weird point in the game.

I should have said 'to notice'. Been guilty of that myself

He will probably de-commit once he realizes how bad the wi-fi is at PBA.

Well is he planning on tweeting at halftime? Because that hasn't worked out well in the past anyways. LOL

I'm pretty excited to see Quentin Rhymes in Lincoln next fall. I hope his game is in line with Brice, obviously it won't be senior-year Brice but the QR-BW comparison has been made by Fred.
