I believe Sullinger projects as a center and Thomas projects as a SF.

I remember reading JS is projected to grow to 6'10"-6'11" which with his athleticism means he could probably play either PF or C. Thomas is most defiinitely a big guy with guard like skills, so SF is probably going to be the position for him depending on how his body grows. I honestly think for the college game, the way many teams are playing small, the best bet is to basically play 2 PF's. Don't get me wrong, I'll take a dominating center like Oden or Mullens, but in today's college game, I'm thinking having 2 PFs around 6'9"-6'10" is the way to go.

Thomas has the inside/outside game of a true SF... With that said each could play the PF spot, but it is really the big guys that are the guys we are recruiting that are one and done, which seems to be the main reason for us targeting lots of big guys...

Isn't this the same last name as the Malik guy that Jim O tried to get but lost to Oregon? Any relation?

Yeah same name, but Malik Hairston was a midwestern boy and Josh is from VA.... I'd be surprised if they were related.

Yeah, I think I remember Malik being from the Detroit area, so it's definitely a different hometown. But, that doesn't really rule it out.
On a bit of a side note, I remember keeping an eye on Malik's recruiting about 5 years ago, and the entire Bucknuts forum (I think this was before BP started... or at least before I knew about it) was banking on Jim O getting this stud recruit. Well, as we know, O'Brien couldn't close the deal and everyone on Bucknuts imploded. "Buckeyes will never get top B-Ball recruits!" "We can't compete in recruiting with the traditional basketball schools!" Looking back on those posts, all I have to say is:  !!!!Thad Matta is THE MAN!!!
