Updates approximately every fifth page on this thread (or when drivel crosses 99% threshold). Comments, corrections, and additions welcome: public, PM, or by email. My scholarship math is not as fine-tuned as Acorn's, so proofreading/info in that realm will be appreciated.

The Kool-Aid list reflects publicly available sources, typically internet recruiting sites (e.g., Rivals.com, Verbalcommits.com, etc.), and published reports. The list is maintained for entertainment purposes only. It contains no information received from coaches or recruits. waitress takes responsibility for any omissions, typos, or other errors.

Back-of-the-envelope scholarship count: Davidson gets thirteen scholarships. For the 2015-2016 season, Davidson presumably has 13 scholarships used by: Barham & Sullivan(RS) (class of 2016); McAuliffe, Belford (RS), & Gibbs ('17); Aldridge, Ekwu, Magarity (RS), Michelson, Reigel, & Watkins ('18 ); Kovacevic, & Pritchett ('19).

    No real rumors yet, but seems like Robinson would be a great fit. A former top 100 recruit, would give us somebody in the sophomore class next year, add to our guard depth, and he'd be set up to replace Jack at point as an upperclassman. Also, ESPN listed Vanderbilt as a finalist when he was in high school, so he at least previously had interest in academically rigorous schools in the southeast. Definitely getting ahead of myself but keeping an eye on it.

    Lefty. Bouncy. Nasty.
    Hm, now where have I seen a player with those same three attributes?

    He looks like a mixture of Jack and Jordy.

    Robinson and Grady and our guard worries are over...? Inside/Outside...deadly.

    New Kellan Grady article and quotes from Scout, pretty nice read despite them spelling his name incorrectly. He seems to really love Davidson but with 2 years left I'm concerned he'll blow up to a level where huge programs start going after him and lure him away (I worry a lot) http://www.scout.com/college/basketball ... dy-emerges

    Also a nice writeup here: http://hoopseen.com/index.php/news/head ... -super-six

    Jairus Hamilton

    Jairus Hamilton was in Belk Monday night for the Mercer game, think he also spent some time afterward. With his size, skill set, and athleticism probably has unlimited upside. Good student, seems to like Davidson but getting a lot of attention and will be highly sought after with two years of high school left. Had 23 last night versus 2A power First Assembly.

    Phil McKenzie, Cannon's 6'5 wing was also present.
