Recruiting

[BCHoopster]

So where is Buzz going the next month on his recruiting trails?  Is he just watching Stone or his next priority for 2014?  Who would that be?  Sandy Cohen who is a nice prospect is not
exactly what they need?  They already have 10 high major recruits for 2014, one or two might be enough??

This post is so all over the place.

My guess is he'll follow Diamond Stone everywhere. He won't worry about anything else.

Yes, he should leave no Stone unturned!

He's not going to put all his eggs in one basket.

I would be surprised if Cohen isn't a Warrior when all is said and done.

Stone is 2015.....Buzz will certainly spend time watching him but we have 3 more spots open for 2014 which will be his first priority.

(I was being sarcastic. If there's one thing I know it's that nobody outworks him on the recruiting trail. He's not stopping for 1 recruit)

He and the assistants will be a million places.. Buzz specifically.. would think he'll make visits to the Peach Jam (1st weekend)... not sure if Diamond is going play with a 16U team at Peach Jam this year?... I think his MKE Young Legends team gone be in... the Quon that same weekend (i.e., not this coming weekend but the one after). They'll hit up the adidas Invitational in Indy I'm sure...

Second weekend there are some Midwest joints.. the 'Quon for Summer Jam; Best Buy Summer Classic in Bloomington, Minn. hosted by Henry's D1 Minnesota team... they'll stop out for that one..

Third weekend.. Florida and VEGAS!!!! Many tourneys that final evaluation week/end in Vegas... Fab 48, adidas super 64, Big Foot Hoops/LV Classic..
-----------

Wow, time flies. As of today I think I'll be at the Best Buy Summer Classic and then running all over Vegas again for a few days later this month.

If Stone is as good as they say he is, I'd doubt he'd come to MU. This kid is a one-and-done player on the fast track to the NBA. I've read repeatedly that Buzz doesn't like one-and-done players and doesn't really like to play freshman. I guess he feels he can convince Stone to stay multiple years and develop his craft. I think he goes to a Kentucky, UNC, Duke, Kansas, etc. Somewhere freshmen are known to get big time PT and shine. I'm not saying I hope we don't get him, I saying I don't think we'll get him.

Glenn Campbell was something of a cliché but his cover of Jimmy Webb's Wichita Lineman was one of the most achingly existential songs ever recorded. For anyone who has driven Route 66 the pathos, isolation, and stark tedium of an unchanging moonscape is perfectly calibrated by the numbing staccato rhythm of high tension towers and telephone poles spaced in perfect cadence. That nameless, faceless people find love and meaning in such barren circumstances is poignant tribute to the dignity of the human spirit.

This reads exactly like a Patrick Bateman music review/solilioquy

The comments made herein are another example of summer boredom with people writing about their feelings which have nothing to do with the subject.

Missed this post earlier, Crash, but your review is dead on as usual. Moving song of a dutiful "Everyman" going about his business through boredom,loneliness and fickle Mother Nature. Maybe Webb's best effort. Campbell's, too.

The best acoustic rendition I heard of Webb's classic was by Pat Metheny here in Seattle. He played a baritone 6 string with Larry Grenadier accompanying on bass. It was hauntingly beautiful. Anyone who has driven from Enid to Wichita Falls has felt that hollow anguish.

I've read repeatedly that Buzz doesn't like one-and-done players and doesn't really like to play freshman.

I'm curious where you've seen this. If freshmen are ready, Buzz will play them. Look at Blue and Mayo. And I don't believe for a second Buzz will pass on a kid strictly because he's a likely one-and-done. Coaches may not like the one-and-done rule, but no one is going to pass on a kid who can potentially be the difference between an Elite 8 and a national championship.
