He played a vital role on this season’s IMG team as the best perimeter shooter, but also their best perimeter defender," Rivals' national analyst Jamie Shaw said. "It may be easy to pigeonhole Bates into the 3 & D moniker, and that is not a bad thing, but he has a little more shake to his game than that. Bates is good in transition and can knock down a 1-2 dribble pull up, but make no mistakes his offensive game is predicated on his deep range." mamasa, thebigweave, HoosierHoops1 and 4 others 7 Quote

Did you know that it cost over $70,000 for one year going to IMG-Bradenton? And did you see the following article about a fringe benefit for one student?/sad and sick https://lawandcrime.com/crime/former-florida-private-school-teacher-charged-with-driving-student-to-beach-engaging-in-sex-acts/ Quote

My daughter went to Phillips Exeter (in NH), cost well over $50K a year but she had a 2/3 scholarship, and is now on a full-ride scholarship at Vanderbilt -- which is freaking amazing, and she wouldn't have that without the boarding school investment in her future. The stuff about the teacher is unfortunate, and it's going on all over the place, male and female teachers. The public high school where my two sons went has had at least 3 teachers charged in such scandals, male and female, within the past few years. Stuhoo 1 Quote

Geez HH, that kid is just. a. little. impressive! My daughter went to high school at American Heritage in Delray Florida on a theater/music/academic 75% off ride. Would have been $50k otherwise. When she got there, we discovered that the 90%+ of kids were there without a scholarship and paying full freight--mainly very wealthy families that wanted to say that their kid graduated from a private high school with Ivy league and D1 sports destinations. As with HH, my daughter is now on a more than 50% college ride for musical theater at Boston Conservatory. And the school can say to wealthy parents "look ... another of our kids got somewhere good." IMG is a little different because they are sports-centered only, but methinks it is supported by the wealthy golf, lacrosse, etc families who pay full freight. My son sings classical--a very small and hard to find skill for universities. Every single member of his freshman incoming class got at least 50% off college tuition, and he had four our five offers like that (sadly, including one he turned down from IU). Basketball is likely the small, niche program at IMG where every single kid gets an all but free ride and helps with the school's resume. HoosierHoopster, lillurk, Hoosierfan2017 and 1 other 4 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 Travis Branham's list of sleeper freshmen. Tamar Bates | Indiana | SG | No. 29 Overall Mike Woodson took over in Bloomington and quickly got to work on the recruiting trail. He hit the transfer portal hard but also landed one highly touted high school prospect in Tamar Bates. The 6-foot-4, 175-pound shooting guard out of Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy broke out as a star in the 2021 class last high school season. The lefty is a confident and skilled scorer who is also capable of playmaking for his teammates. There is age and experience on Indiana's perimeter with guys like Xavier Johnson, Rob Phinisee, Parker Stewart and even Khristian Lander but Bates is expected to have a serious role with the Hoosiers this upcoming season. Bates skillset and his three-level scoring will be valuable to Woodson's program as they get things rolling in year one. https://247sports.com/college/michigan/LongFormArticle/Sleeper-freshmen-preview-college-basketball-Kobe-Bufkin-Tamar-Bates-Kowacie-Reeves-Tyrese-Hunter-Malaki-Branham-Josh-Minott-Jabari-Smith-174513755/#174513755_1 Joe_hoopsier, HoosierAloha, HoosierHoopster and 2 others 5 Quote
