[HabaneroBuck]

Is Dante a good prospect as a point guard? I always assumed from his athleticism that he was a wing prospect, but the idea of a 6'5" or so point guard who can grab rebounds and dominate a smaller guard is very exciting. It would be hard to project where he'd play for the Bucks because he would be behind Cook, Lighty, and presumably Conley. Nevertheless, his enthusiasm is awesome.

The fact that Xavier has already offered him is telling, also. They reportedly got a steal in Nate Miles in this class, so the early offer is quite telling to me. Schools like Kentucky can afford to wait a while to offer the cream of the crop. Xavier cannot afford that, so the staff always targets the best early and gets in on them. Kind of like the relationship Thad has built with Conley and Oden! I'd offer him quick before he blows up (assuming the academics and attitude are in order). It is probably not a necessity based on his obvious attraction to Columbus, but it doesn't hurt momentum to get another verbal. At least, this is spoken from a fan's standpoint!
