Recruiting season is in full swing. After a weekend on the grassroots circuit, One Shining Podcast discusses the best prospects in the class of 2017. Scott and I take a look at the top players we saw at the EYBL and Under Armour in Indiana and stack them up against recruiting classes of years past.
Topics include:

- Kevin Knox is on a dramatic rise. Where’s his ceiling at?
- Hamidou Diallo and Lonnie Walker are a pair of game-breaking shooting guards. We discuss why both are so coveted for college basketball coaches right now.
