BU Scholarship Update

[PeoriaLou]

Okay, I'm pretty new here and need a quick recap of BU recruiting.

Class of 2006 recruits:
Xavier Crawford, 6'9 FR PF
Andrew Warren, 6'5 FR SG/SF
Matt Salley, 6'8 JR PF
Ryan Phillips, 6'4 FR SG walkon

Class of 2007 commits:
Sam Maniscalco, 6'0 PG FR
Jeremy Fears, 6'4 PG/SG (Transfer) JR
DeAaron Williams, 6'6 SF (JUCO) JR

If I have read correctly, BU has 2 scholly's left for 2007, in which a big man is a primary focus. Sound right?

[Da Coach]

correct, as far as I know

[Braveman]

What is X-man's true height? I have seen him listed everywhere from 6'8- 6'11...

[Da Coach]

Al Biancalana told me he was a legitimate 6'10" when he was at Mt Zion prep school back in March of 2005.

I also recall seeing Xavier at the Riverplex a year ago, and I saw him from very close range, and was abble to compare because several BU players (Ray Brown, Sam Singh, Cellus) were standing right next to him. I believe he is legitimately over 6'10".

I agree, he is about 6'10, I saw him at breakfast a few times in april.

And since MOST people sit for b/fast he's probably closer to 9 feet tall

[Fetz86]

he was standing in line to get his food, than stood up again when he was done to put his tray on the rack
