I'm just curious as why Furman and NKU would recruit these kids if they're bound to fail anyways. I think both boys will be fine and have success at their respective programs.

I think Faulkner could play at a high D1 level, if he hadnt signed early i think offers would be coming his way from power 5 conferences...JMO

Did you ever see quads green play in high school? Obviously not.

No i did not, im basing my opinion on what i see at UK. I see a small 6-0 guard, that does not have elite athleticism, speed, or leaping ability. A solid role player but certainly not elite in any capacity, IMO

I agree that the top 10% are eye catchers with their athleticism and skill....but there are dozens upon dozens in the other 90% that could play at a High D1 school and contribute. Look at NBA rosters, MANY
smaller colleges represented ...more high D1 schools represented obviously, BUT most of those are the 10% ers that i referred to previuosly. IMO

Quade Green is a bum! He's equivalent to a 15 region player.
