I thought that McCruter taking a post-grad year was an excellent decision for a late blooming prospect who showed flashes but still needed time before he could contribute at the college level. McCruter’s flashes are becoming more consistent and his body is starting to fill out. Add in the fact he’s shooting 3-pointers with more confidence and mixing it up in the paint as shown by a putback slam dunk on the first possession of the game and McCruter is trending upwards at the right time. I expect to see a sharp increase in recruitment for McCruter as he’s a no-brainer full scholarship target either at the Division II/NAIA level and worth a look for low major Division I programs as well.
