BU recruit- 2010 Mykel Cleveland- juco PG

[SaintLouBrave22]

Illinois has been looking strongly at the junior college level for point guards. They were heavily recruiting Dodie's younger brother (even sometime after he committed to Arizona St), are still debating on whether or not to offer Cleveland, and are also very interested in former Evansville point guard Kaylon Williams. They would like a point guard who knows the system to bridge the gap between McCamey's departure and Tracy Abrams sophomore year (so he wouldn't have much pressure as a freshman and would be able to learn the system). Thus a junior college point guard seems to be the best option.

Bertrand is an option at the point spot but Paul and Richardson have yet to prove they could effectively be point guards. It would also take away from their ability to score the basketball.

Didn't Richardson win Freshman of the Year honors?


Paul is another story, but he's a shooting guard...thats where i would be wanting depth...

That kid needs to show me much more to figure out exactly why he's considered such a talent...

Didn't Richardson win Freshman of the Year honors?.....

yes, but his statement was that neither Paul nor Richardson had shown they were effective point guards..both are good freshman off-guards

I can see them going after a JUCO PG....tracy abrams is only a junior in HS so after McCamey leaves they probably need another option besides a true freshman.

I don't know if Joseph Bertrand could do it...he is 6' 5" and a ATH

I can see Paul doing it though
