Recommended Posts

The state’s second-ranked Tigers pounded Granite City 71-29 for their 18th consecutive victory.  Smith, who finished with 11 points and 11 assists with Northwestern watching in the front row.  The newspaper account also said Smith had "4 thunderous dunks".

Are we recruiting mith too? Haha thanks for all the updates OF.

I wasn't sold on this kid or the situation. I'm still on the Green will be a great point or lead guard. After watching us this season where zero guards can consistently get their own or set others up I'm all in. He should be a good addition to an okay backcourt.

Is this a late bloomer, coaches rushing to fill a roster spot, or something else?


Former baseball commit, hadn't been on the summer circuit until last summer I believe, not a shoe company guy, doesn't play in a basketball hotbed (though East St. Louis about 15 miles away is), and probably a bit of a late bloomer.

Offered by Ohio State and Texas now. This kid has blown up. Really seems like a winner.

I don't think we are even in it anymore with coaching issues UNLESS rumored potential new coach candidate has ties, and I believe he does.

I'm having trouble staying current - who is this rumored potential new coach?

Didn't make it out last night. Eating Mexican turned into margaritas which turned into going to a bar to play pool at 2:00 which left me incapable/ill-fit to go to a high school basketball game. Or be within 10 miles of a school.

FWIW, I tried to send you a PM. You didn't ask for it, just had a few I knew to PM before bringing it to the board. You can't receive PM's it says....

You are cool man. I wonder why that is? I got a PM from Dallas yesterday. I should go through and clear them out. You aren't the first person to tell me that lately.
