Yeah, he's definitely right around 6'7 and 205 lbs.
This is an excellent pickup for Xavier. All of the scouts and pundits are calling him an elite shooter in the '17 class.
I know Snow has his opinions but I can see Ridder playing some 3 and 4 at Xaiver. He needs to get stronger, but he's got solid athleticism.

Jared Ridder commits to the good guys!
Like most combo forwards, Ridder is much more appropriate for one position than another, and because he'd struggle to guard a lot of 3s, the 4 is more appropriate after he's done some college level lifting. Now, since we're discussing what Snow said, he did also say he could see Ridder on the wing in certain lineups; it's just dependent on who is around him. I could also see Ridder improving enough on defense and at ball-handling to earn legitimate minutes at the 3, not dependent on certain lineups, but that would probably be like when B.J. Raymond spent a lot of time at the 2 (a combination of experience and good team defense).

We needed a shooter in this class because the other recruits we are going after really aren't great shooters. This is a great pickup and start to the class.

6'7 205 is a great build for a shooting SF. He's a little bigger than JP. It would be nice to have him play in a similar manner, especially defensively.
