Yeah i was very surprised to hear that Bradley; the first school to recruit him, and the first school to offer, wasnt even mentioned by him as a school he wanted to visit or as one of his leaders.

Da Coach said:
No, but I didn't think that Tyler Hansbrough was either. They seem like they have very similar backgrounds.
On one hand it seems like kind of a put down that he isn't even giving BU the time of day after already offering him (even Shaun Livingston told the Sun-Times that BU was a possibility, when we all knew there was no chance), but on the other hand it's probably good that we aren't wasting time and resources on him if he has no intention of coming to BU.

I have seen him play and he is very good, but here are a few other thoughts.
Since Prosser was in 5th grade, he has always been 4-6 inches taller than anyone on the court,
and that has a way of making you look a whole lot better than everyone else even if you can't shoot.
Jordan Prosser IS NO TYLER HANSBROUGH. Hansbrough was powerfully built, was dunking over opponents by the time he was freshman,
and could run the court like a deer, lead a fast break and finish.
Hanbrough also played for the top big school in the entire state of Missouri that even had
some national ranking, while Prosser plays for a small school that isn't likely to even win their own conference.
Prosser has a little way to go in some areas.
If, by chance, Jordan Prosser is done growing, then at 6'7"-6'8" he isn't likely to play center above the mid-major level,
and if he's going to play PF, he needs to bulk up, develop a little more range, and still may have to settle for mid-major.
I would say he is not even where Carlton Fay was at as a sophomore.
Just recall that when Blake Mishler was a sophomore, there were people ranking him statewide i9n the Top 20 as well.
The fact that after his junior AAU season, the only competition he is going to be facing since he plays for Class A Eureka,
are guys from Flanagan, Rantoul, and Roanoke-Benson will make it tough for Prosser to impress the likes of Kelvin Sampson and Bo Ryan.
PS-- Eureka, based pretty much just on Prosser, was ranked #8 in Illinois in the preseason Class A rankings, last November.
They finished 19-9 and unranked.
