Were we expecting any recruits this weekend?
I don't think Haunted Hoops is the type of event recruits attend.
Damien Saunders once made an appearance. Great sign by crean. Rumor has it roseboro was in attendance along with monterale "shackles" clark. It is also believed that mbakwe was seen in the back alley.

Tyshawn Taylor attended and committed right after Haunted Hoops.
yeah i knew this was not a big event like midnight madness, but i thought 1 or 2 may make an unofficial.

I thought Mbakwe rode his bike out to half court.
It looked like they had a lot of recruits for the 2020 class.
There appeared to be at least one recruit there - a guy about 6'8" wearing some red and black clothing without a team logo. A couple of other guys that appeared to be highschool ball players were also around, but probably there on their own. I have no info on who was there, however.

GOO -- I noticed the same. Big guy, 6-8ish as you said, wearing black and red gym track-type gear. Hung around the bench during the scrimmage. He looked older than a HS senior. JUCO?

Robert Jackson was sitting on the bench by the basket closest to the entrance. Could he be who you saw?
If not Jackson, it was likely Asrungue Souleymane. He played for Buzz and Monarch at New Orleans and has been around this summer helping out the team.

No, for sure not R. Jackson. I saw him too. This was a different guy.
