Maybe I'm missing something but who makes up this "core four"? We know what we have in Dunn and Bentil and Cartwright to a degree. Everyone else is a question mark until proven. We have seen glimpses of Lindsey and prev season practice reports said that Bullock was solid. Since no one has defined what a STUD is I will take a stab. I define it as someone having an impact from Day 1. It doesn't have to be a 20ppg scorer. Just someone who makes a difference from the beginning it's noticeable when they aren't on the court.

You missed my earlier response to walk, in which I provided my impression of what a stud is... "... my interpretation of a stud recruit would most likely entail a player who has the skills, attitude and physical tools needed to be a significant contributor (as opposed to a serviceable backup, day one). A guy like Reynolds was a stud the first day he walked on the Xavier campus."

71 - sorry - Never made that comment or anything close to it about us making the ncaas. Please find that post. JANUARY 7, 2014.THE EXACT STATEMENT BY YOU WAS "THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE...A VERY GOOD CHANCE..THAT VINCENT COUNCIL...BRYCE COTTON...LADONTAE HENTON...AND CHRIS DUNN WILL NEVER PLAY AN NCAA GAME AT PC" YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT COUNCIL.AFTER ALL, HE GRADUATED IN 2013. And fri one- it's nothing against Q the player but he is only considered a 2 star recruit. What qualifies as a stud? Strictly based on freshman year production wouldn't Cartwright figure to be a bigger contributor than Lindsey?THAT IS CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY AND A MATTER OF OPINION.REASONABLE MINDS MAY CERTAINLY DIFFER AS TO THAT.ARER YOU SAYING THAT CARTWRIGHT WILL CONTRIBUTE MORE TO THE 2015-2016 FRIARS THAT JALEN L? 82 - those stud recruits will never play with dunn so I'm not sure how they fit into the core 4 but my comprehension needs work..... I EXPRESSED MY OPINION AS TO WHO THE CORE 4 WILL BE THIS UPCOMING SEASON.IT IS NOT FACT.IT IS MY OPINION.MY COMMENTS ON THE STUD RECRUITS RELATES TO THE FUTURE,WHEN DUNN IS GONE.IN MY OPINION PC WILL BE BETTER THAN THE PREDICTED 8TH PLACE FINISH THIS YEAR.STARTING 2016-2017 THE RECRUITS BROUGHT IN WILL DICATE HOW WELL THE FRIARS DO IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE RETURNEES. HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

82- you're right. I would consider Reynolds a stud. He has killed us and he makes a difference everytime I see him. 71- I agree as well. I think we will be better than the predicted 8th. I hope you're right that some of those guys step up.

To me, a Stud Recruit is pretty straight forward: it's a Top 100 recruit at a minimum.
Dunn, Ledo, Michael Smith, Rob Phelps, God Shammgod = Stud Recruits.
Gomes, Cotton and Marshon Brooks were all very, very far from being Stud Recruits. Jason Evans was also very far from being a Stud Recruit.
Many love to dismiss rankings, but is it a coincidence that the three best PC moments in the "Old BE" involved McDonald's All Americans (Delray Brooks, Michael Smith, Shammgod)?
There is a reason schools like Duke and Kentucky are not intentionally recruiting kids way outside the Top 100.
Once a kid actually steps on the floor, you can then determine if they are a Stud Player.
For the record, Jalen Reynolds was ranked 111 by Rivals. Almost hit Stud Recruit territory.

Didn't Reynolds miss his first year? Partial qualifier?
