Not a good trade for us. I think we'll just keep Finke. I hope he thinks the same.

The point wasn't about a trade, it's about how a player that plays Finke's position just happened to transfer out.
Good kid. He'll work his tail off to get better. I'm glad we signed him or will sign him soon I should say.

Does Clownzo have a relative in education in Florida?
Kerwin Smith averaged 1 pt and 1 rebound. He likely will transfer to a lower division. Ryan Luther looks like the most appealing due to his fit for the offense and team concept. Ave almost 13 pts and 10 rebounds for Pitt. Very active, nice stroke from 3. Needs to return from foot fracture, that is the "but".

Yeah. Sometimes tongue in cheek is hard to see in words.

The Loyalty Game: How sneaker dollars transformed youth hoops
Thought the recruiting thread was the place for this link.

"Marvin Bagley Jr. and his wife filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in April 2008, during the Great Recession, listing their combined annual income at just over $44,000. Property records indicate the Bagley home was sold in 2011 at a trustee's sale -- typically a sign of a foreclosure.
Four years later, shortly after Nike's sponsorship of the team became public, they left their working-class neighborhood in Phoenix for Southern California. In a tax filing, the Bagleys listed a home address in a gated subdivision in Northridge called Porter Ranch. Similarly sized homes in the vicinity typically sell for $750,000 to $1.5 million, said Jose Contreras, a Coldwell Banker real estate broker active in the area. Rents in the neighborhood range from $2,500 to $7,500 a month.
Neither the Bagleys nor Nike would offer any details about the team sponsorship or the family's personal finances. Contacted via telephone and through the Duke University sports information department, the Bagleys "respectfully declined" to comment."

All you have to do is see the lefty sweet hook dunk, the lefty block shot, the left wing 3 pointer...think we'll be all right with this kid!
Good luck with that.

***BREAKING NEWS***
I’m hearing 4x��State Champ Coach Nick Irvin Morgan Park HS might be making a move to the Collegiate Level...If this is true recruiting definitely won’t be a issue kids love playing for coach Irvin @chicagotribune @Suntimes @camronsmith @HoopDirt @itsthebigs
Hope Nick does well at either Louisville or AZ...now back to recruiting - when is Jones next visit or scheduled date for announcing?
Any chance he's coming to Illinois as an assistant?

Really doubt anyone hires him straight away as a head coach at that level.
Maybe Walker or Antigua is going somewhere and Irvin will take that spot on our staff?
I believe Cal is set to get an OV. Xavier, Miss State are also in play.
Heard Nevada recently got involved as well.

Sounds like a player who still has no idea where he is going.

Well, cool, come on down....and we thought Eboigbodin was hard to pronounce.
If this has any validity, gotta assume it’s a job at DePaul.
I'm fairly confident that THT was not a exactly the program changer some want to make him out to be. A nice piece, sure but let's not get too dramatic.
This is either wrong or a very interesting twist. If A.T. is announcing April 11th, why does he have a OV at Oklahoma on April 13th?
