100%. But the idea that the guy who wrote Kid A and OK Computer now looks like fishin’ grandpa really throws me.

Could see that one coming a mile away. Imagine she will have a very long, very successful career in sports media.

Glad you posted this. I keep forgetting that since he went to UK and plays for the Heat that Herro’s from Wisconsin and that’s the flagship program there. Karvala played for them as well.

Imagine you’re right about a Thompson offer going up under those circumstances. Would also think a Diane offer would get really spicy. And, yeah, Adidas needs to start taking care of this program rather than continuing to treat it like East Bumphrey Nowhere State.

Ok, this may be the most jarring thing I’ve seen in a minute. This is Thom Yorke. He just turned 57. I’m gonna take a leisurely stroll out into traffic now.

Kid has done everything right since he got to Bloomington. They all have, but he really has.

2 patches, huh? By ‘28 or so uniforms are gonna look like NASCAR.

Watched 2 of his HS games this morning. A shining example of a kid you dream on. He’s a tremendous athlete. Run, jump, change of direction, twitch, plus across the board. Stroke is pretty, though he has some inconsistency in his footwork to clean up. Took the ball to the basket and finished through contact, which was nice to see because his EYBL statlines looked like he fell in love with the 3. Played ok defense for the level but has the tools to be a very good defender. Handle needs work. Competed on the glass and physicality didn’t bother him. My favorite part: he’s late developing physically. I don’t care how well he plays there is no realistic scenario in which that kid would go after a year. He’d have to put on 30lbs of muscle to move on. So he’s a multiyear piece but on talent he can be a rotation guy immediately. 1 thing: watched part of an interview with him and he’s kind of a different kid. Can’t put my finger on it exactly. Don’t mean that critically, if the staff is down I’m down, but he doesn’t feel like a Sisley where you know the kid is just solid as a rock. Karvala’s at Bella Vista this year and I’ll be seeing them at an event in January. Hopefully I’ll be watching an IU commit. Diane will be there, too. Maybe I get to see 2.

If the young man is as interested in the close family environment as he’s said many times he might want to Google “Keith Appling.” Or “Tom Izzo witness tampering” or, of course, the tried and true “Larry Nasser.”

Wouldn’t think that will have that much to do with it. Taylor and Medlock are both 1st year Link Academy kids. Taylor’s from Kansas and Medlock’s from Michigan. Taylor was Nike and Medlock was Adidas. Doubt if they even knew each other 3 months ago. Imagine if he picks MSU it’ll be because Izzo’s Izzo.

Cancelled his UK visit, per the UK On3 dude. Certainly sounds like IU/MSU at this point. Assume this will rap pretty quickly.

Of the 3 kids they’re in on hardest, Thompson is the one it would bother me least to miss on. Love his talent, but not sure he’ll be ready to be a top 2 option on a really good team next year. But I see him possibly still being good enough to go after 1 year. So I’m not sure he’s a building block. Allmond and Taylor are almost certainly not 1 year kids.

I vaguely remember him having a pretty good game against Mokan when I was watching one of Taylor’s games at Peach Jam.

My thinking as well

https://x.com/RomeovilleKid/status/1975215588927783370 This sounds not that good for The Sanchise.

https://x.com/TravisBranham_/status/1975243920125927758 Uh, did I miss an offer? I remember Old Fart mentioning the staff watching him but it seems like kind of an odd time for a new offer.

And it certainly proved prophetic as Adkins announced for KU.

Adkins announced for KU tonight.

Allmond finishes off The Border event with 28/18 as The Burg wins their last game 69-65 and finishes the event 3-0. In addition to IU, per Markwith, Tennessee, Maryland, Miami and Oklahoma St watched him today.

Commits to Texas Tech.

Commits to NC State.

Why did Napier call TO? There has to be a rules based reason he did that.
