My brother went to one of his games last week. Stood on the floor as Dom walked by. Dom's 6'3 tops, according to a reliable eye-witness.

massive tool
Taller than when he was Jr. So much the better; not every guard has to be 6'5 to play for Tad. I would like to see Dom add about 20 lbs of muscle and be closer to L. Smart in stature; like an NFL safety. That, along with a drop-dead jump shot, is what's needed in Boulder right now.

Think Positive and life will be Positive.
Collier doesn't really NEED to add 20lbs. He doesn't need to play like smart either. He's not a big guard who's going to crash the lane every attempt he has. He's a great distributor and all around player. But a few weeks in the weight room would hurt.
I heard Dom has recently taken over the last 5 games or so in terms of scoring. Someone said they are playing without a scorer who is out right now, but I think it's because Taddy told him to focus on scoring at will.

but can he shoot the 3?
So far Dom is 47 for 120 on 3pt shots in his senior year, good for 39%. I would have liked to see a 45% clip or above, but we have to figure he's garnering a heck of a lot of attention from opposing defenses.
Ouch, he keeps dropping
Well, obviously, they are concerned with the discrepancies in his reported height.

He did not show well in front of ESPN at the Pangos Colorado camp a few months back. He couldn't hit anything from the outside whatsoever.
Great.

Which is a bit ridiculous. ESPN had never evaluated Ronnie, watch him for one day against CO kids, and suddenly he's a top 100 player? Makes no sense, and that's coming from a huge fan of Ronnie as a prospect.
It is not worth discussing ESPN ratings ITT.
Honestly, I hate bagging on rankings because it's cliché, but with ESPN it's true. If the guys are outside of the top 50, ESPN doesn't really have much info on them. Always go with Rivals & Scout over them.

According to Rivals, he hasn't signed an LOI yet. Would he be with going after if Spencer leaves?

I saw him at the Jayhawk Invitational in the summer, and wasn't really wowed by his offense. Does look like he could be an elite defender at the college level tho, or at least that's the first impression I get every time I watch him.
Know he had some injuries in AAU that effected that; dunno if that was the case for the Pangos Colorado camp.

I was a bit surprised myself, but happy for Ronnie and the Denver East program in general.

He's all signed for Creighton. He's a guy CU passed over in favor of George King.

We are going to love the 2014-15 team. Guard depth (finally) and a national Top 10 front court.

So Denver East played Omaha Central in Grand Island, NE last Saturday. Wish I'd have known about, I would have made the 2 hour drive. Dom had 29 in the game, and 15 in the fourth to erase a double figure lead for Central. Central did end up winning though. Harrell had 11 despite shooting 10 3's.
Hopefully this will post. Dom goes hard at the rim about halfway through the video. Didn't know he had it in him.
