Hope it's not paywalled.  Eric Bossi on his thoughts on rising seniors from the USA Baskerball minicamp.  Chase Branham and a number of other IU offers are mentioned.  Very complimentary about Branham.

Mildly interesting tidbit on an otherwise slow news day.  

Kevin Boyle and SPIRE Academy have officially partnered with Adidas.   All the years Boyle was head coach at Montverde Academy they were a Nike school.

Such a great event. Along with the Hoophall Classic in Springfield, MA probably the best HS event in the country. But it’s so close to Christmas that it’s tough to fit with regular life/family obligations. If they’d bump that thing forward a week I’d go every year.

Can’t believe those creeps won’t accommodate me. Do they know who I am?
