Scout has Isaiah Johnson listed as follows:
Center, 6'9", 250lbs, Not ranked, 2 star.
Maybe he will rise with some AAU exposure this summer, -- or not?
Many questions: How quick? Is he long? Any hops? etc, etc, etc."Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it! Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it." Goethe

Enquirer articles says 6' 8" (whatever)
only a 2 star - meaning what?
1. stars are irrelevant?
2. that's good for a center?
3. we getting desperate to recruit bigs?
This is a local kid but I'm not familiar with him. What's the scoop?

He's a guy that is sort of a late bloomer as a basketball player. Focused more on football in HS and - given his frame - had some interest from MAC-type schools. Would be a bit of a project and might be a redshirt candidate but by all accounts is a good teammate and locker room guy. Upside might be a Jason Love type.

More like 6' 9" 270. Put up 35 points against a 4 star center. He's just not playing much AAU ball. Very likely one of those hidden gems in which 3 years from now Xavier fans are scratching their collective heads saying, Why didn't Mack recruit this guy?
Think of the star system as a tool, not the bible. Look at how many Xavier greats we would have missed out on if the star system was the end all.Balls of Steele!!
