Yes, I went to Gonzaga, but I'm from Utah, and I played at Waterford just before Mika did, so I am familiar with the team.

I feel the only two LP products with elite potential are

Mika - he needs a big man to coach him to pass out of the double team, rotate to either side, and have any semblance of a mid-range, face-up game, and

Frank Jackson - and his PT behind Allen remains to be seen.

Hawes may be a prolific scorer in the future, Emery is a good shooter and has a lot of hustle, and Childs got some bottom-feeder PAC12 looks, but the term "elite" implies blue blood recruiting, McDonald's AAs, and last year's roster didn't have it, much less this year's.

To me, Mika is great, Childs is good with the potential to be great, and the rest are fine, but fell into the trap of LP hype.
