Dwight Howard Journal

Here is a link to #1 Hoops prospect Dwight Howard. If this guy ends up in college for even one year I would be extremely surprised. If he does go, he's sure to be a one-year guy. He certainly would be fantastic, but can another one year guy help the program? Do we want another NBA prospect to leave early and forever be associated with GaTech, but not help the team acheive greatness? It is so hard for big men to integrate into a program in one year. Bosh did it well enough to win ACC frosh of the year, but the team ended up at the NIT, not the big dance. Now he's gone. We will always be proud everytime we see him play in the NBA, but the program did not go up a level. Hate to say it, but Randolph Morris seems like a better fit for the program. He could be a 2-3 year guy. Now, if they both want to come here and Hewitt can find an extra scholorship, well that would be the ticket.
