This is getting serious enough to earn his own thread.

I didn't see Kalkbrenner play at the same age, but I saw Rock play last summer before anybody had even offered and was like e'Who the heck is this kid?" Seeing some of his highlights from this spring already and I'd say he's already made significant strides even from where he s last summer. Definitely some similarities there. I like him quite a bit.

Whoa... this kid looks a lot more fluid and quicker NOW than Kalk did even as college freshman... Almost Holmgren-like... Sh*t!

There's still a lot of developing to be done (and a lot of time for things to change) prior to the end of his HS senior year, but his game strikes me as more similar to Epperson's (*right now*) than Kalkbrenner's.

I kinda get Jack Nunge vibes from those brief highlights.

JT has now been "discovered" by 247.com. He should skyrocket to the top 100.
