What I think is hilarious is that they are going to basically base this off of seeing him a couple weeks on a team of guys he has never played with...  |
He didn't have a very good HS year either. He was beaten/challenged head-to-head by many PGs like Grady, Lucas, Sag. Arhur Hill, etc.
The MI class of 08' is one of the worst in 15 + years |

Conley isn't a very good comparison for Noopy. Conley is at least a threat to score and can blow by his defender whenever he wants. Noopy isn't quick enough to get by a defender that is playing off him and he doesn't look to score very often.
His drop in the rankings isn't that surprising. He really didn't have a great high school season...not sure where you are getting that he was the state player of the year.
He has very good ball skills and great court vision...wouldn't surprise me to see him have a good career at OSU. |

I am guessing that you have seen him live from the report, so I would ask who you would compare him too... |

Offut at #112 and Crater at #114 is a joke. They won't be staying this low.

Actually, Offutt at 112 is fairly consistent...Noopy is another story.

The thing about Offut is that the little remark they say about him is that he is returning from injury...Well it was my understanding that he has returned form it and it should no longer be hampering his ranking...
