2014 6'1" PG Shawn Roundtree Jr (Edwardsville, Ill) - Ohio Interest

Posted: 3/15/2014 3:17:54 PM

Here is an article on the game played on the 7th. Roundtree had game-high 23 points.

I think (?) they won again yesterday and are still alive in Illinois playoffs.

I've seen crazier things happen.

Either this is a diamond in the rough or we're starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Hard to say, unless someone can find video of him. But he did get a nod from Roosevelt Jones, who would be starting for Butler if not for an injury:

Here are some highlights of him from his Junior year.

Overall I like his game. Seems to hustle a lot and is pretty balanced offensively.

It is worth pointing out Ohio hasn't offered from what I can tell. We have been scouting a TON of point guards for 2014. With all the guys we seem to be looking at, I feel pretty confident the staff is doing its due diligence on this 5th recruit.
The two HS Senior's we already have signed both have pretty impressive offer lists outside of us. I trust this staff to go out and get the best player possible. I definitely want a PG with our 5th scholarship, whether that is a transfer, a JUCO or a HS Senior.

I've seen crazier things happen.

BOOM!!!!

Edwardsville lost in a high scoring 38-33 thriller the other day in the state semis. Roundtree led scoring with 13 points. They play in the 3rd place game today.

This site has him as an under-the-radar type recruit. He got pretty good reviews across the board for his play in the state tournament.

I am not sure what other PG's Ohio is looking at right now, but based upon what I have seen and heard we should sign this kid if he wants to come to Athens.

I liked what I saw and in talking some guys over in Illinois that have seen him play, they have a favorable opinion.
