And showcasing your skills allows you to show what you improve on after the AAU days till the draft. Certain players while very good don’t look good in certain systems. Look at Max B for example. I certainly understand your point and it may be spot on, but I just don't think that aspect is as important as it's made out to be. Admittedly, I'm an old guy so there may be some generational issues with how I view things like this. Maybe in the end, agree to disagree a little bit on this. ellen.walden 1 Quote

cthomas Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Maybe, depending on if Hardaway can coach or not. Quote
TXHoosierDaddy Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Well who knows if a Memphis commitment is on the horizon. This is kind of contradictory. Quote
Zach Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Wow....so within 3 hours you have an article that says spring decision and a tweet that says he is nearing a commitment to Memphis! Someone has their story mixed up. Just not sure which one lol! SlamaJamaSisley and mamasa 2 Quote

I understand it's a big decision but it shouldn't take into the spring to know where a kid wants to go under normal circumstances. This is especially true for kids who want to be a one or two year college rental with no real interest in a degree. It took me until the spring to decide where I was going to college, and I wasn't even offered a spot on the basketball team... mdn82 and mamasa 2 Quote

Popular Post WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 19, 2018 Popular Post Posted July 19, 2018 Yeah, the staff could be scrambling down the stretch to try and put together a decent class, especially if TJD goes to a bigger name program. We are in a boom or bust scenario.We honestly aren’t in a scenario like that. Let me be the voice of reason. Nothing has happened except missing Carton, who was a long shot to begin with. Missing TJD can be manageable as well. As I said yesterday, it’s way too early to worry. The Watford news isn’t news. If you read tea leaves, the Watford recruitment appears to be a tricky one. Never really expected this one. Our homerun hopes are Stewart, TJD, Hurt, Brooks and maybe Nnaji. Our other options are strong players thus far. We return Green, Phinisee, Hunter, and Smith and others. We may not land 3 5 stars but it will be an excellent class. I confidently expect it.

Walking Boot of Doom Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Guys about 9 months ago we weren’t even talking to Watford, then we stopped talking to him again for reasons that have been hinted at, and now he’s flirting with Memphis, FSU, Alabama, LSU, and... Indiana? Hmmm...Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando BtownBanners Stromboli, WayneFleekHoosier, ElectricBoogaloo and 1 other 4 Quote

It’s especially important for the kids with one or two years to sell themselves to know as much about what’s going on at these schools by waiting till the spring when coaching and roster decisions will be more clear.
