'07 GA PF J.J. Hickson (N.C. State Verbal)
  
Rivals.com
Scout.com
Wheeler High School (Marietta, GA)
Height: 6-foot-8
Weight: 230 pounds
AAU: World Wide Renegades
Ohio State is showing interest in this highly ranked prospect from Georgia. Considered the #20 prospect overall in the 2007 class. Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida State, Georgetown, Kentucky, Michigan State, Purdue, South Carolina, South Florida, Virginia Tech, Wake and New Mexico State have offered. He is also listing Arizona, Georgia Tech, Miami (FL), North Carolina, Syracuse and Virginia.
Bouncy forward who simply gets things done. Works around the basket and wants to step outside. Like how he rebounds and plays in attack mode, even from the post position. Will be an excellent transition finisher.

It is hard to call him a fall back b/c he is ranked as the #20 player in the class, but I think the staff has Lauderdale in their sites and they would probably call it a class for big guys after him and Kosta.
I would have no problem bringing in two guys of that size, but I don't see it happenining.

Lauderdale and Koufos seem to be the main targets but the staff is still looking at other prospects and Hickson is a very good prospect.

Hickson does not name any favorites. Hickson averaged 19 points, 9 rebounds a game as a Junior. Hickson's AAU coach stated that Ohio State, UNC, UConn, Illinois and Arizona were recruiting him "hard".

Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgetown, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan State, North Carolina, Ohio State and Wake Forest along with many other schools have offered. Hickson will narrow his list after 1 May and announce the list in July. Playing time is a major factor along with the coaching staff. Distance will not play a role.

At the Bob Gibbons TOC in North Carolina.......Hickson struggled in his first contest and nothing new in his recruitment. He will narrow his list in the near future.
