What the fuck does "Strength: Outstanding" supposed to mean?
That he has outstanding strength?
Clearly it means his strength is exceedingly poor.
Obviously this is right. I think he was confusing it with a "Strengths: ... Weaknesses: ..." style of scouting report. That would make "Outstanding" a pretty nonsensical reply.
Here is the 2011 top 75 from scout:

Kearney 41
Williams 43
Brundidge 61
guys you mentioned supposed to be interested in Michigan?
plus those are the four guys from the state of Michigan in the Top 100
I think Kearney and Gibson have high interest in UM (Kearney has an offer but I don't think Gibson does yet). We have a good shot at Brundidge but Williams is a little more of a longshot. We should have three spots to give out next year and it's possible three of those four could end up being our 2011 class.
We are also in on a number of recruits out of state but these names have come up the most because they are in state and it has been easy for them to get to campus for games and unofficial visits.
The feeling over at Rivals is that Kearney and Brundidge are UM leans, with Williams being the longest shot.
All four have been on campus. I believe Brundidge numerous times and his outstanding strength probably means he can take it to the rack absorb the hit and still make the shot.
Kearney was just hear for elite camp and visited previously coming away extremely impressed. I am surprised that Patrick Lucas-Perry is not on the list. Started as a freshman at Flint Powers and has played in two state championships winning one.
we are looking at two consecutive very solid classes, one of which will be outstanding.
I'd take Zeigler or Prather over any of these dudes though just because they have the ability to fill an immediate need. Need someone other than Darius Morris who can slash it to the hole and dish out to our shooters. There's a good chance that Manny will leave for the NBA after this year with DeShawn which would certainly hurt our team (hopefully just temporarily) in 2010.
Would he be the brother/cousin of former Wake Forrest,Atlanta Hawks first rd pick Jeff Teaque?
You should facebook him and ask him yourself!
I'll have one my sons do that for me,when they return from their summer vaction.
I do not like to hear Williams is a long shot. Amir is my top choice for 11 with Kearney a close second and Brundidge a close third, hell I would love to get any of them here and I think Belien pulls in 2.
I am also surprised that PLP is not on here...I thought I had heard somewhere not long ago that many felt Patrick Lucas Perry was the best high school player in the state right now, regardless of class.
I have read that too. I bet he will eventually be on both lists.
PLP has never been rated as highly as these other kids. Physically all 4 of these kids are ahead of PLP and that is a big reason they are rated higher.
I am not sure if Belien has offered PLP, I've seen conflicting reports. For a kid entering his junior year of HS. he is one helluva player, this just happens to be a very deep class for hoops talent in Michigan.
