2014 SF/Wing Joe Burton (Oklahoma State Verbal Commit)

[Bluejay Bilas]

More great work from WBR: http://whiteandbluereview.com/?p=25241 This was already posted in "2014 recruits" thread. But, I don't think there is a Joe Burton thread elsewhere on here, so here is one.

Were we late to the party on this guy? Or was it simply a matter of Burton not being discussed on this board? Either way, this guy said he models his game after James Harden, and it shows whenever he drives to the basket and forces his way to the rim.

I like. A lot.

Both. More of #2 than #1. We're late, but at least he has been offered by the Jays.

Do you have information that we were late on this kid or is that simply your conclusion?

we were not first to the party, but that can be said for a number of the guys we're targeting now. Joe is a great player, and interesting prospect, he does have offers from lots of Big XII might be tough to wrangle him out of Texas, but this staff has done it before

Is the staff still on target with Gilmore? Or has this recruit taken priority? From what I've seen, they are starkly different types of wings
