Kegler and Malik underachieved based on our expectations, but both averaged over 10 points a game their freshmen years. We had 3 people do that this year. I'm not looking up numbers or anything, but I would guess that Mcdonald's All-Americans start 90+% of the time their freshman year. So for us to assume he will be a big piece of our puzzle next year is just logical.
History tells me to undervalue the 5* Southern basketball player. Nick Spoon and Devin Booker are about the only two in the last five years that haven't been evaluated incorrectly from the recruiting services. I hope Perry is the 3rd one to be rated correctly. I need to watch some of his games.
