According to SourceHoops.com, Chris Griffin from Wabash CC will be visiting the Zags next month. He will also be visiting Kansas St. and Auburn. He attended FAMU High School in Tallahassee, FL, was in the class of 2010 and committed to Murray State. He played his freshman year there getting limited action in 22 games. Ultimately he decided it was not for him and left the school after his freshman year. Chris would go on to spend all of last season sitting out without a school. This may he committed to Wabash Community College, he will play 2012-13 at Wabash and is interested in transferring out for the class of 2013 to a D1 program. He will have two years of eligibility left wherever he ends up.
Chris' former High School Coach Rick Davis had this to say about his abilities:
“Chris is a three to four dimension player. He played the guard for me but he can also play from point guard to power forward. Chris is explosive to the basket and his mid range game is probably his best shot. He is a good shot blocker great passer and anticipates the passing lanes really well. He averaged more assists than my point guard last year. He is going to be our floor general this year. Depending on how teams play us, will determine what positions he plays this year.”We had a chance to catch up with Chris' former AAU coach, Chris Ayers who informed us that Ray Giacoletti has been recruiting him. He echoed Coach Rick Davis sentiments that Griffin is a "Skilled, tough, athletic Wing that can play multiple positions."
Not much is really out there on Chris Griffin, but with schools like Kansas State going after him and our staff looking at him as well it would appear he has the talent to play at the D1 level. We will refrain from speculating about why the staff is looking at JUCO players to fill scholarships until we know for sure who will and will not be joining our 2013 recruiting class. We will keep you posted as we learn more. GO ZAGS!
