Strengths:
Shane is one of the hardest playing guys in the state of N.C. Depending on the system he's in he could be an undersized 4 or a power 3. He gets things done with effort. He possesses a strong upper body and he's a very good rebounder. He can also shoot it to 18 feet. His execution comes off physicality and effort.
Weaknesses:
He has to develop his skill package and needs to add post scoring moves and add more reliability to his perimeter game. If he does end up at the 3 he must improve his ballhandling.
Bottom Line:
Shane is a super student and his a high character kid. He’s overcome two knee injuries in high school. He’ll probably find a home in the Big South.
[font=arial]Whitfield transfers to team with Tyler Lewis
North Carolina is loaded with prospects in the class of 2012. One player flying under the radar is Shane Whitfield, a 6-foot-5 forward.
In an attempt to make a name for himself, Whitfield is transferring next year to Forsyth Country Day School (N.C.). There, he will team up with North Carolina State commit Tyler Lewis in hopes of increasing his recruitment.
“It’s better competition,” Whitfield said. “I want to get better everyday.”
Right now, Whitfield has offers from Delaware, American, Campbell and Holy Cross, with interest from Richmond, Charlotte and East Carolina. [/font]
So what you’re saying is, instead of scouting this guy you just stroll on down to the local watering hole instead to get smashed and curse out the manager b/c he doesn’t have the Niners game on even when it’s not being carried?

lol I may have to do that as well, but yeah I will definitely head over to PCHS with anipalcraig this fall and get NNN a good scouting report on why he’s going to be better than Rodney White, Sean Colson, Jobey Thomas and Michael Beasley combined.
