I will let this speak for itself:

Iowa Western Community College saw their season end at the hands of Indian Hills Community College in the 2 out of 3 finals played in Iowa. Indian Hills, the number two seed, swept the Reivers to advance to play on. Assistant coach James Bankhead gave JucoJunction a quick update today on the schools recruiting the Reivers sophomores.

Lloyd Phillips
Lloyd Phillips: (SO) 5-foot-10 (165) combo guard from Washington, D.C. Lloyd is getting strong interest from Middle Tennessee State, Illinois State, Western Kentucky, Troy, Eastern Illinois and Montana State. It looks like Illinois State could be getting a visit very soon in the future according to Bankhead. Lloyd played his freshman season at Allen County (KS) and had made a verbal to University of Montana but decided to return to junior college and found his way to Council Bluffs, IA. Lloyd averaged 18.2 ppg, 3.1
rebounds and 4 assists this season.

I seriously doubt msu has much of a chance considering at least 2 of the other schools recruiting him are ticketed to the Big Dance. That is a pretty good recruiting edge imo. :twocents:
 
Lloyd, I am hoping that is a misprint and should say "MONTANA" not montana state. What do you notice in the 1st sentence? MONTANA stands out, just like it should come decison time. :thumb:


BTW, MSLACAT this is one post I did not like seeing the content of. Tell me/us you changed that from MT to mtst. Come on, Lloyd is smarter than that. :thumb:

Gee, that sounds familiar. :thumb:

Mslacat, on a serious note, when i go to the recruiting sites and look at Western kentucky or one of the other schools said to be in the hunt for Phillips, his name doesn't come up on any of their lists. Is there a reason for that?
 
The article that I quoted above was from Jucojunction on the Rivals site. It was posted yesterday and I posted it most like pretty quickly after it appeared. Bret Swanson who wrote the article generally has a relatively quick turn around when he interviews a coach and when it makes it onto his site. I would guess that he talked to the Iowa Western coach on Monday or Tuesday. I would guess the info is pretty current, but it could be possible that a school was left off the list.

About the the databases Scout.com does not cover the JC basketball ranks very well. They have maybe at most a 1/10th of the JC players Rivals have, and there is no rhyme or reason as to which players they have listed. Rivals has Jucojuntion, plus 4 or other local sites that cover JC ball so they have a much complete and updated database of JC players. Right after I read the article I did check the MSU data base at rivals and Phillips was on their. He has never been on their list before. As a matter of fact up until yesterday I had no clue MSU was involved with Phillips.

Now a question for you Griz fans. When I talked to people from UM about Phillips left they say he had a problem with credits or grades from his former JC. When I read about why he left on the net from his perspective he makes it seem he did not like Montana or just did not fit in. Which is the truth.

Phillips is a 5-10 shooting guards. How many 5-10 shooting guard can you name that are at larger conference schools. The huge knock on Phillips is, can he get his shot off against athletic 6-4 guard D-1 guards. I think Phillips can thrive in a Big Sky conference school, but I do not see him going to a larger conference school

So THAT's why Martin fired up 3's from 10 feet beyond the line all the time.

And still Martin was 3-4 inches taller than Phillips

Dominguez from PSU is all the proof anyone should need to realize size isn't a factor, per se. If Phillips can handle the ball, there shouldn't be a reason why he can't get a shot off. I would imagine he is much more athletic that Martin.
 
OK here is a little info it looks like Illinois State,Western Kentucky and Middle Tennessee St are the schools on his short list
