@AdamZagoria Iowa State adds 6-foot-6 Darlinstone Dubar, who immediately anybody's All-Name team

“He has great length and can score in a variety of ways,” Scotland Campus coach Chris Chaney said. “He’s a tough defender who will make an immediate impact if he continues his improvement. Has the chance to be a special player if he continues the passion for the game.”

Not the same caliber of player but similar style to THT, also similar to Talen, he's looks physically ready to play in this league.

Why do you say that? Their bodies aren't similar at all.

I think its long arms, broad shoulders and how he uses his body. Reminded me of the HS tape on THT. THT was much bigger and probably stronger, like I said, not the same caliber but reminds me a lot of him with the way he plays.

With the Anderson backlash, we definitely need to hear the expert opinions at the time of each commitment.

I don't understand why we're paying Prohm millions when there are several posters here who've forgotten more about basketball than he'll ever know. We could hire them all and have a coach by committee and still save money. They can obviously recruit against the blue bloods, would never miss on a recruit with their eye for talent, and can coach circles around Prohm. Yet Jamie won't hire them. It's mind boggling.

Found this on his twitter page. He was dunking on his Maryland visit. I have a feeling between he and Blackwell there will be some awesome dunks that will raise the roof at Hilton!

Mr. Dubar has been given a rating by 247. A little lower than I thought he would get, but ratings mean nothing, especially the early ones. Caleb Grill and Tre Jackson were nobody's this time last year, I thought they looked solid-to-good last night.

Thanks for the insight! Surprised they got a rating in that fast. Given that there is no bball being played this week in prep and if they already had that ranking why wasn't it in lol? Curious to monitor to see if it moves at all through his Prep season. Also, just realized Rivals doesn't have any rank or rating in for him either. So there may be another update in the near future.

Providence's God Shammgod from the late 90s is still captain of the all-time all-name team in college basketball.
That's awesome - I forgot about him. I personally loved the name Spud Webb (that dates me, I know).
