Stuhoo

G_d bless 'em, the SEC is a sucking suckfest.

Oooh... him too. No internet access in the Blackmon house either [emoji79]

Well... Crean would recruit the dog sh!t out of Indiana if he was shooting for two star and low three star Indiana hs kids. It's those darn high four star and five star Indiana hs kids that seem to think they can go anywhere in the country. IT'S THE INTERWEB AND CABLE TV THAT'S BEEN THE RUIN OF US I TELLS YA!! (except of course, for Cody, Yogi, Hollowell, and Swanigan, who obviously didn't have internet access and therefore stayed in state)

Bam Bam?

Northwestern forward Aaron Falzon has season-ending knee surgery Dec 11, 2016 Associated Press Facebook Twitter Pinterest Email print comment EVANSTON, Ill. -- Northwestern sophomore forward Aaron Falzon has undergone season-ending knee surgery. The school said in a news release on Sunday that Falzon will seek a medical redshirt and would have three seasons of eligibility, starting in 2017-18. Falzon averaged 8.4 points and 3.4 rebounds while appearing in all 32 games as a freshman last season. He also hit 63 3-pointers, second-most in program history by a freshman. Falzon was limited to 20 minutes in three games this season.

If we're 1-0 we're ranked. [emoji16]

You're right. Let's go with the wrestler dude!

Too much polyester.

It would be incredibly disappointing if there was real evidence that we prioritized similar or lesser recruits from the east coast over the Midwest. It would also be disappointing if we took a player who would not be as valuable to our roster just because he was from the Midwest. It's a long-standing discussion on this board, but there's plenty of evidence that we work hard locally and regionally (Gelon, OG, Juwan, JSmith, etc), but don't pass up a good opportunity from the east. For the past few years, it seems that the most valued common denominator among our recruiting interests has been character, with high-level talent as the second highest priority. Ranking service star ratings? That is not a dis-qualifier, but also most assuredly is not a real factor.

Nope...Too friggin' cutesie.

It makes sense if he's good enough. Not trying to be a smartass; he's a 6'8" face-up wing who rebounds at a high level and is a high-character kid. We are likely going to lose OG, and so, Forrester's description fits the "we need that" bill. Is he the right guy for that slot? I have no idea, but apparently the IUBB staff has seen him in person, (I expect on multiple occasions) and thinks he might be.

A couple of points of interest: -> He is apparently about to start appearing on the high major radar: "Heading into the event this weekend, all of the talk surrounding the Westtown basketball program was about five-star big man Mo Bamba, Arizona signee Brandon Randolph, and five-star junior small forward Cameron Reddish. However, it was Jake Forrester, a 6-foot-8 forward out of central Pennsylvania, which took the floor by storm. " No surprise that there will be late arrivals to the scene. -> He is a very good student who re-classified to '18 once upon a time. I betcha betcha betcha we are looking at him for '17, not '18.

Nova is missing alone in the gym at night-level wide open threes.

DeRon, Juwan, CuJo, RoJo, Josh, Zak, Devonte and Justin is a pretty solid core to start with, and I expect us to add one more substantial contributor. We'll be good...or better than good.

Cautiously very optimistic

Apparently "family member" could include any household member, i.e; live-in girlfriend. That would make this a very bad personal issue for Bragg, but not a KU "his mama got a sweetheart job deal in Kansas" program issue.

Carlton Bragg of KU arrested for domestic violence against a family member. Not only is the crime a huge issue, but since he's from Ohio, I'm curious about his family member's employment while living in central Kansas.

Penn State? Oof.

Nope. Bad hands.

Yes, this one is really him too!

I predict that MSB scores, and scores big (for Tim Priller).
