He's from Houston, just think he'll stay in Texas or OK. I think we have the best hoops situation, but I also think it's going to be a very hard pull. Bama is no slouch either.

The guy that recruited him to Oral Roberts is Beard's successor at Tech. IOW, IBIWISI.

Yeah the whole thing smells contrived. Tipton is a Bama student. Musselman recruited him hard out of HS. TT seems like a lock (LOL).. If he comes to C/U it may be the biggest upset of all time.. The guy is really good though. Played Liddell and Castelton even up head to head in the dance. No visit to C/U is fairly telling. Oh Sydney Curry your table may be getting ready.

Obanor would be a great get. But what we really need is a 4 or 5 that can rebound, set screens and catch lobs. Obanor’s rebounding numbers are fantastic and his shooting is definitely a bonus, but I think we’ve got plenty of shooting already.

I had forgotten about Curry, but at 260 pounds no one is getting through those screens. Reminds me of a taller Vital from Baylor that also looks like he can shoot a bit. Does anyone know if we are still in on him?

Obanor would be huge, but some stiff competition and Curry would fill our most important need just as well if not better IMO. Really think we just need 1 more rebounder/rim runner in the front court and we could have another special year.

Shocking news is that Pop has been fired and BU is leaving to be the full-time head coach of the US National team?

Having it publicly announced that 1 (or 2?) of your top 4 aren’t even recruiting you…announced them to early…then your name spelled wrong with your new graphic designer is a rough stretch for the kid.

It definitely is a reminder that for almost all of this nonsense, 99.99999999% of the world could give 2 $htis, and yet here we are hanging on every word/tweet/poorly-spelled graphic announcement.
