SMITH COMMITS TO HUSKIES

January 8, 2010

MD forward Roscoe Smith committed to UConn over co-finalists Georgetown and Duke. Smith is one of the most athletic players at his size range (6-7) in the senior class, and despite lacking refinement he is too big and springy not to compete for early playing time.

Smith may remind Husky fans of current forward Stanley Robinson. Though not built like a big forward and not yet skilled like a wing (especially in terms of dribbling), Smith’s athleticism enables him to compensate for those deficiencies, and encouragingly he also is a dangerous, if inconsistent, perimeter jump shooter.
