I was browsing r/collegebasketball on reddit yesterday and saw the Scout 2015 Final Bball Rankings and decided to take a look just to see where they had Chris Clarke ranked but was pleasantly surprised to see how high they have Justin Robinson ranked.
VT Commits:
Justin Robinson - #59 overall - #9 Point Guard- 4 star
Chris Clarke - #76 overall -#13 Small Forward - 4 star
Kerry Blackshear - #105 overall - #18 Power Forward - 4 star
Chris Clark was also featured on an article "Five outside top 50 who could have big impact" which was published two days ago.
"There aren't many guys who fit a coach's personality better than Chris Clarke does with Buzz Williams. The 6-foot-6 and 195 pound Clarke is one of the highest motor players in the country and he checks in at No. 76 in the country.
Clarke is someone who probably starts from day one for Virginia Tech. His versatility is what will get him on the court given that he likely will be able to play on the wing as a small forward or as a matchup problem power forward. Clarke has an incredible ability to rebound the ball at his size, and with his athleticism and length, he plays taller than his listed height.
Williams absolutely loves tough and high energy kids to play his system of defense, and Clarke is just that. Even though Virginia Tech has some good young talent, especially wing Justin Bibbs, Clarke's toughness and versatility should get him on the court right away. Even in the meat grinder that is the ACC, it wouldn't surprise to see Clarke as one of the top newcomers in the league following the year.
Virginia Tech needs an infusion of talent, and Clarke is a big piece to the puzzle. It will likely be another re-building year for the Hokies, but a season after looking back with promise at a freshman like Bibbs, Virginia Tech fans will likely be doing the same with Clarke a year later."
