Prob was.....until Fears told him that he'd competing with him for minutes after his reclass.Recruiting is fluid...........
I remember a short time ago when Mikey was a lock.......................
We took JaseRecruiting is fluid...........

Yep that’s a Nike sponsored team,same team James Brown is playing with now.Gill is gonna play AAU ball (w/Mokan Basketball). Almost sure they play on the Nike EYBL circuit.
Trust the staff but why Jase over Mikey? Saving cash for the portal?We took Jase
Fears and Lewis together would be too steep considering they’re incoming frosh. More affordable pickup with Jase. Our staff seems to favor portal proven NIL value.Trust the staff but why Jase over Mikey? Saving cash for the portal?

Incredibly small sample size! On the whole, Fears is an absolute baller. He is a take now or in ‘25. From the looks of it, if it isn’t now, it is much less likely in ‘25Jeremiah Fears through 2 games at the Border League:
7-24 from the field
1-11 from 3
1-4 from the line
8 assists
7 turnovers
Reclassification is a terrible idea. He simply isn't developed enough physically or skill wise. Another year of high school should be the preference.
Id imagine Mikey probably wants immediate playing time while Jase might be more willing to take time and develop.Trust the staff but why Jase over Mikey? Saving cash for the portal?
Maybe we're finally learningThat and Mikey’s people ain’t worth the headache
seems most good players have "people" that create headaches. At what point do you say, we need talent to win, so we need to find a way to deal with those headaches or we won't succeed on the court?That and Mikey’s people ain’t worth the headache

I don’t think acquiring talent has been an issue at all & not all headaches are created equal.seems most good players have "people" that create headaches. At what point do you say, we need talent to win, so we need to find a way to deal with those headaches or we won't succeed on the court?
Yes let’s pass on the hyper talented kid in 2024 since he had two underwhelming games so he can go to a blue blood the following year. Incredible idea.Jeremiah Fears through 2 games at the Border League:

If you don’t mind me asking, who are some players that have worked out for us while also causing Brad headaches via their camp? Or has it typically been guys that never truly buy in and leave after year 1.1. Brad has taken plenty of good players that cause headaches since he’s been here.
2. Are we not succeeding on the court?
depends what level of expectation you have. I think more were disappointed with last year than happy. I think this season will be very important for Underwood's tenure.1. Brad has taken plenty of good players that cause headaches since he’s been here.
2. Are we not succeeding on the court?
Including EYBL, top 100 camp, and the past 2 games, he is shooting 27% from 3, 39% from 2, and 45% true shooting. There is no indication that he wouldn’t go to Illinois if he was a 25Incredibly small sample size! On the whole, Fears is an absolute baller. He is a take now or in ‘25.

That’s tricky because Ace was bought in and loved it here but his mom did. Curbelo was bought in his freshman year but went off the deep end. But I’ll give you one…..Kofi.
