    I had never heard of Kent Nishimura until maybe 4 hrs ago(thank you, Rex Chapman), and I’ve now listened to 10 or so of these and they’re freaking hypnotic. He’s 21, and he takes full arrangements and somehow distills all of the instrumental parts along with the vocal cadence into a single guitar line and then freaking kills it. It’s like the old Eric Clapton line about hearing Robert Johnson and asking who the other guy playing was. I don’t know if this is genius or a parlor trick or something in between, but it is a sight to see.

    I don’t buy it, but, for the sake of argument, would imagine that would put Fland back in play in a New York second.

    Wow, those bitter as hell UConn WBB gatekeepers who really look for any reason at all to trash Clark have got to be choking right about now. You’ve got to be impressed with how hideous they are in that they’ve managed to make Clark a sympathetic figure.

    Apparently Arkansas is facing a 2 year post season ban for recruiting violations related to, of all guys, Keyon Menifield.

    Yup, and until coaches take the hit even after they leave it’s never gonna stop. And Muss is such a POS. Can hardly stand the guy. There’s a reason he’s had a million jobs. Of all the names who got thrown around here when Woody got the job, Muss was the one that was just too gross. He’s never gonna stay anywhere.

    https://twitter.com/CoachingChanges/status/1776967509482316025 Not surprising, but it always makes me laugh how frequently schools get busted for recruiting kids who aren’t particularly good.

    Would not be opposed to exploring this one. He’s a year young for his class, so the season he had isn’t a shock. He’s got a great frame and he can really run. He’s strong enough to defend the block and he’s really quick off his feet. He’s got a chance to get a lot better.

    Just got done watching Shelley play a couple of games. The kid is gonna be an elite multi-positional defender. 6’8” with elite movement skills. He’ll be switchable 1-4, no problem. Maybe 1-5 in the right situation. And he can really run and he can make enough open looks. Fun prospect.

    Well now, isn’t this right here some passive-aggressive d-baggery.

    (2025) - (C) Malachi Moreno to Kentucky

    Moreno’s time as a somewhat under-valued kid is about to come to a crashing end. And, yeah, I know he’s a top 30-ish kid now. No, he’s better than that. Hopefully, IU being in early is significant or the Barrel Rick stuff proves accurate because everyone’s gonna be in here.

    Strictly a lottery ticket at this point, but I’m holding on to that one for dear life. And if you haven’t watched it, there’s a YouTube video from just a few weeks before he got hurt of his team(Atlanta Express) playing Bronny James’s team(Strive for Greatness) on ESPN. You could not watch that without inescapably concluding that Newton was a better prospect. No disrespect towards Bronny, Newton was just a Guy.

    Curious little note if IU should end up with Carlyle and Rice: when Ya got here and IU was offering every kid with a pulse in Georgia it looked like that was going to be a cornerstone piece of their recruiting strategy. Of course that’s not really how it’s shaken out. But, Carlyle(Milton HS before going to OTE), Rice(Covington East) and Jakai Newton(Newton HS) are not only Atlanta area kids, they’re from the same CONFERENCE. The talent down there is just nuts.

    Like this hire. Thought he might end up at Illinois with Underwood.

    ISU’s resume in the A-10 would have made the tournament, no problem. That, combined with receiving a 500% or more pay raise is why it would be a no brainer move for Schertz.

    (2024) - SF Bryson Tucker to Washington via Portal

    Don’t remember where, but I saw someone comp Tucker to Kerry Kittles. That’s a strong call, right down to the slightly funky action in the jumper.

    Has studied a ton of Edey film. Literally fires his lead elbow at the face of a kid who’s making no effort to contest.

    If you’re the Fever you obviously take Clark for a million good reasons, but, my Lord, Bueckers is a good player. There is literally no roster construction she can’t improve.

    See, this is why parents can never give up social media. What parent wouldn’t love telling the entire world that they call their kid Liky? And Happy Birthday to the young man.

    IU needs to recruit Lawrence just to keep him from having career nights against them twice a year.

    It’s my understanding, and, again, never met him, that he is intense in a way that would make Danny Hurley look at him a little sideways. But he’s won something like 5 D-2 Naty’s, so clearly whatever he’s doing works. And he’s only, maybe, 40, so if he can level up he’s got the chance to just keep going.
