North Carolina center signee Armando Bacot: "DeAndre Ayton. He was just so big. When I was in the 6th grade playing against him as an 8th grader he was humongous. How are you supposed to guard a player like that? It was tough." Jeremiah Robinson-Earl: "Trendon Watford whooped us. He was tough. Everyone on the team tried to stop him and it was impossible to guard him." (Rivals.com)
