Has anyone heard of these two players. Josh Harrellson is asking out of his LOI at Western Illinois and Crean is supposedly interested. Verdell Jones is one of the unsigned point guards still left for the 2008 recruiting class. Please post if any has more info on these two players. http://indiana.scout.com/a.z?s=170&p=2&c=7...l%3frefid%3d400 http://indiana.scout.com/a.z?s=170&p=2&c=7...5%26refid%3d400 |

I know Verdell Jones he plays in the same conference as my high school does. I think he scorched us both times he played us. Hes tall and quick. Heres another link to one of his vidoes: Verdell Jones vs Jared Bayless |

I wouldn't be too upset with Crean if he can't too many people for next year. He is immediately under the sanctions that Sampson was under. He can't have any official visits, he can't call players, and he can't recruit off campus I believe. He's pretty limited in what he can do, which isn't good when you need so many players at this late in the game. |

I take it Jones is in the white uniform #12 and Bayless in the green uniform #32. Jones looks decent, but Bayless looked much better. They are two totally different players. Bayless looked more explosive and Jones reminds me more of Greg Graham, thin with long arms. |

Bayless definitely looked impressive, but Ebanks is probably the only talent left that even compares. |

Kid's got some offensive potential. Looks like he has a knack for finding a way to get the ball in the basket. That video was from a year and a half ago. Hopefully the kid has bulked up a little since then. I want to call the kid on out his defense, but Bayless is gonna be in the pros next year...so it's hard to get a good read. |

Jones has been marketed as a flashy combo guard leaning toward point. Any truth. I like the Harrellson idea myself. I think with only one year of JUCO experience and the big Wisconsin banger style of build he could be an impact for us on the boards and the defensive end. Bobby Capobianco in 09' with Elston and VanTreese is the frontline of the future, with Pritchard, will be bluecollar as hell. |
