Horace told the Insiders Report he would like to sign in November if he feels comfortable with the right school." - Insiders Report

7/16: "Big time over-achiever. Plays much bigger than 6'6, and was arguably the best rebounder in the camp. He's athletic and strong. Danny runs the break well and finishes plays above the rim. Looked like he was going to pull the backboard down a couple of times. He got calls from Wright St., Duquesne, Nebraska, Ohio University, Miami of Ohio, Western Michigan. Look for a lot of big timers to try to get nvolved later this summer and fall." - AllStar Report, ABCD Report Card
