Our rumored new assistant Thomas Carr  is very connected with Team Loaded so probably worth keeping an eye on any of their former players

Saw that. Also coached at Word of God at 1 point which is pretty much just a diploma mill but a lot of good players have funneled through there.

Player	Original College	AAU Branch	Portal Status
Jamie Kaiser Jr.	Butler	Team Loaded VA	Officially Entered
Tyler Lundblade	Belmont	Adidas 3SSB	Intends to Enter
Samson Aletan	Mississippi State	Adidas 3SSB	Officially Entered

 

Lundblade can really really shoot it; over 40% from three on volume and 93.4% from the line. And he's been coached up at Belmont. Hope we get involved and get him.

Chol Machot College of Charleston is one that is believed to be entering the portal. CofC has become a second team of mine as I've had a few grandchildren attend. CAA DPOY and elite shot blocker. Has off the chart per 40 minute numbers defensively and has NBA size and athleticism. Originally committed to Miss St before attending JUCO in Florida two years ago.

The basketball program has hired two Carrs. Cig is driving the pace car. I think our athletic programs are off and running.

Over five blocks per 40 minutes. Conference defensive player of the year in only 19.8 minutes per game. That's crazy.

Tons of turnovers and fouls, but clearly a talented kid. Intriguing, especially if Thomas Carr was a primary recruiter for him.

I like that he’s a multi year player too.

He’s also super skinny and probably needs to put on 30 pounds lol. Very toolsy with a ton of potential though

Tough to see Lundblade not following Jacobson to K-State, but if he’s actually available that would be worth getting into for sure.

I remember last year you were probably first on the Lamar bandwagon, even before it had come out that we were going after him. Any Lamars for this year?

CofC, you are a man of taste. My all-time favorite coach is John Kresse. People talk about “coaching geniuses”, that guy was the genuine article.

NO wonder we stunk last year.  We had all those coaches and not even one Carr.

I had two granddaughters play soccer there a few years back. They had a fun, young team this year but absolutely no-showed in the CAA tournament. I think their roster unfortunately is about to be raided. Machot can play in the NBA if he develops a consistent offensive game.

Chol Machot with an extra 30 pounds would be an incredible get

Yea. 7-0, 190 lbs is almost unbelievable. Heck of a shot blocker though.

No thoughts yet. Last year my obsession  was scoring wings. This year it’s PG’s.
