Hustle. The dunk would not have happened had he not raced across the floor.

Yes, how am I supposed to know where everyone went to high school and when? We lost the data and now we have to start over from the beginning. I think @racinghoss started us off last time, so please begin.

I can’t believe we got a commitment from a player of his caliber so far in advance. He’s a junior who has been committed for 15 months already!

Think about this: Assuming all remain and all commits stay committed, Dain Danja, Ty Rogers, Amani Hansberry, and Morez Johnson. Wow!

Don't sleep on Perrin. But, hell yeah.

Rogers at the point? JK. I am assuming BU will have top PGs and #2s as well. Epps should still be here.

With mature Jayden Epps!

[LvilleILL]

Amani Hansberry, Morez Johnson, Perrin, and senior Dain is going to be a crazy good front court
