Evaluaqtion Summary: Jarrod's stock has fallen somewhat from his summertime high, but he is still an athletic wing who can handle the basketball and a good shooter out to 20 feet. He tends not to drift beyond the arc at this time. While only average defensively, Davis has long arms and other tools which could make him a menace over time. He also rebounds quite well for his size.

Evaluation Summary: Cummins has an excellent basketball IQ, is a good high pass passer, and shoots with consistency inside 16 feet. However, he needs to work on his back-to-the-basket game and finishing with his left hand. He also needs to be more aggressive and consistent in the paint.
Schools in the Recruiting Mix: Providence, Seton Hall, Fordham, Rider and Iona.

Evaluation Summary: Thomas, who missed last season has drifted a bit school-wise. He's also now playing for a somewhat obscure junior college. Nevertheless, he has the attention of college coaches because no matter where he shoots the ball from, it does not drift. So far in 2010-11, he's shooting a sizzling 62% from the field, including 55% from 3-pt land. He also starred at Thomas Edison HS in NY, so he has played against a very high level of competition.
Schools in the Recruiting Mix: Providence, Siena, Boston University and UMBC.

Evaluation Summary:Hopper is an improving big man with a nice touch out to the perimeter and has the ability to finish up close. However, he's not an athletic kid (especially defensively) and that will put a lid upon his recruitment.Nevertheless, his skill level has the bigger schools monitoring his progress.

PF# 30 Natl' Rating: 3-Stars ESPN Grade: 91
Evaluation Summary: Younger brother of former UMass star Dana Dingle and is of outstanding personal character. Daniel plays with a lot of heart every time he steps on the court. He is a very good passer top of the key passer and plays with a good basketball IQ. Very coach-able.
Evaluation Summary: Jordan is an intriguingly athletic prospect who can dominate in the paint. Like most young big men, his defense (and rebounding) are well ahead of his offense, where most points are scored off tip-ins and dunks. His shot-altering 7'4" wingspan says a lot of what you need to know about his defense.
