Basketball recruiting site Rivals.com has recently released an updated list of the top recruits of the 2009 class. Royce White of DeLaSalle is now a 5-star recruit, ranked #17 overall for the class, and Rodney Williams of Cooper is a 4-star, ranked #37.
So disregard my previous post about how I thought they might not be worth going after just because they are Minnesota kids. With this updated information, they are now absolutely must-gets. The Gophers can't lose hometown kids of this caliber to Wisconsin or Kansas anymore. Hopefully Tubby can keep them here.
Yes, that would be nice to keep some talented hometown kids. That would definitely boost the image of U of M basketball for any other prospects.
