April 16, 200719 yr Yet another great Kentucky high school player likely to go to a D-1 school, just great to see.
April 16, 200719 yr EKU has been on him the longest and hardest of the D1 coaches. However I heard that Newbaurer interviewed for the St. Bonaventure job... I don't understand why he would leave EKU for St. Bonaventure - lateral at best. ???A lateral move? I'm not sure I would go that far, considering that St. Bonaventure is in the Atlantic 10. Eastern Kentucky is in the OVC. Big difference ... Besides, I believe Neubauer played at LaSalle, so he has ties to the league and that part of the country.

I'll buy the part about his ties to the league.
April 16, 200719 yr Between Marshall, Morehead, and EKU, Marshall is the better choice IMO. The Thundering Herd is in C-USA so the competition will be higher than the OVC.
April 16, 200719 yr I could see Walls doing well at Marshall. How long before he plans on making a decision?
April 17, 200719 yr I don't see Walls being able to play at UK. I think Walls can play at any D-1 school. He is not just a shooter, he played the point for Scott Co. his sophomore and junior season and is an excellent rebounder. He reminds me of Dane Bradshaw of Tennessee or Lee Humphrey of Florida.
April 17, 200719 yr Better take that ride. Hate to miss out on a school like that. I doubt many other bigs will come knocking.
April 17, 200719 yr He reminds me of Dane Bradshaw of Tennessee or Lee Humphrey of Florida. Those two players aren't anything alike. Humphrey is a spot up shooter, Bradshaw is a forward trapped in a guard's body. 06-07 Stats: Bradshaw - 5.5 points (187 shots taken), 4.0 boards, 4.7 assists, 1.9 steals Humphrey - 10.3 points (305 shots taken), 1.3 boards, 1.3 assists, .5 steals
April 17, 200719 yr I'm not saying Walls would be a star at UK but he has played against the top d-1 talent in the country and been outplayed by no one. BTW it is between Marshall and UK(that is a fact).
April 17, 200719 yr Better take that ride. Hate to miss out on a school like that. I doubt many other bigs will come knocking. My opinion is there will be some teams who dont get their guy this spring, be needing a good shooting guard and all of a sudden Matt Walls could become a hot comodity.

He reminds me of Dane Bradshaw of Tennessee or Lee Humphrey of Florida. I think Walls can play D-1 but not at the elite schoools. He is no where the shooter as Humphrey or as strong as Bradshaw.

I have saw Walls light it up a few games this year. I have been very impressed by him. I believe he is similar to Bradshaw because he will do anything to win and potentially could do well in a role like Humphrey had with Florida.
