'08 OH SF Delvon Roe (Michigan State Signee)

Roe is developing his game from the Inside/out, which in my opinion is the proper way to do it for a big kid. I think Yancey Gates could profit from this approach.

Roe will not be a SF in college, he is a PF all the way. He'll rebound, play defense, block shots, score around the rim and hit 10-15 footers. He's got a very subtle game and is an extremely smart and unselfish player. Just lets things come to him.

Not sure where he fits with Matta's offense, but Roe will be a very good college PF somewhere.

Hey bn with him already being 6'7'' I think that he would really be one to go after b/c he could easily be 6'8'' or taller playing the wing by the time he gets to school. Reminds me of one of them GTown wings.

What do you think??

I think the staff will be watching his development closely. He needs to improve his shooting and continue to develop his outside game. He will be a top target in the 2008 class.

No offense, but if sehs95 (St. Edward's HS, 1995) says that Roe will be a PF, I trust his opinion. This talk of developing his outside game or being a big wing is off the mark if somebody who follows the program closely says that he'll be a 4 in college.

No offense taken, my opinion was strictly what Roe needed to do to warrant a look by the OSU staff, its obvious that Matta wants his PF to be able to shoot on the perimeter and if we are going to see him as a possiblity then he will need to improve that part of his game. I have no doubt he will be a PF, but I think to be an effective PF in college, you must be able to knock down that mid range jumper, especially in Matta's system.

Roe has started to gain the attention of some major programs. He has been impressive this spring and he is starting to get noticed nationally. His early list is Uconn, Florida, Louisville, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Illinois and Indiana. Illinois and Michigan seem to be pursuing him the hardest at this point.
