Why McNeace is the top target

In tracking the various prep prospects that San Jose State University has offered, one in particular stand out: Jamuni McNeace of the 2014 class.

Why?

Let's start with his August 8 tweet: "I'm officially 6'9 193.5lbs with a 7'1 wingspan and a 9'1 reach"

Yes, he still has to grow into his body but the wingspan and reach are unlike what any other current Spartan or recruit brings to the court. With Chris Cunningham and possibly Andrew Young departing after this season at the power forward spot, McNeace has great potential for being a mismatch and difference maker upfront.

Originally out of Chicago, he recently moved with his father to Texas. His basketball participation began in high school so he's still a virtual newbie.

West Virginia most recently started showing some love as has Texas.

Wright State, Long Beach State, Louisiana Tech, North Texas, Southeastern Louisiana, Utah, Duquesne and Texas State have offered.

He was also down at New Mexico on August 2 and will be back on an official visit come October:

"...McNeace told the Journal that the Lobos said they’d like him to redshirt his freshman season. McNeace, who said he only started playing basketball two years ago, expects to redshirt wherever he goes.

McNeace is a former club teammate of both Eldorado’s Cullen Neal and La Cueva’s Bryce Alford. He is expected to take an official visit to UNM in the fall..."
