So, at the end of last season, MU is in a decent spot to land Stone, but has been eliminated by Ellenson who is looking hard at Wisconsin.  Buzz leaves, Wojo gets on board and MU gets into the picture for Ellenson, then lands him while Stone looks elsewhere and now appears headed to Wisconsin.  I'll gladly take that swap, and I'm not even on the BOT!

I'd make that trade in a heartbeat. Can't wait for HE to arrive.

Watching Diamond in action on TV tonight.  He's got 19 with five minutes left. (Come on Angels!)

But I didn't come here to talk Diamond, since that ship has sailed.  We need to get on his teammate Kostas Antetenkounmpo, otherwise known as Giannis's brother.  He's only a junior but has got tons of length and a lot of potential.

I saw him Giannis's brother at the Concordia tourney. He didn't start. Barely played and looked uncomfortable.

If he wants to stay in the states, he'll probably want to stay close to his brother.  Maybe Giannis pays for him to walk on for at least one year at MU.  If the light starts to go on, that could work out well.  With no further development, he'll probably still get an offer from Wisconsin-Milwaukee based on potential alone.

I think he would be worth a flyer.  We have 13 scholarships, I would use 1 of those on developmental prospects with good upside.  His brother fits that mold extremely well.

Dominican has some real size with 6'10" Stone, 6'8" Garrison Goode and 6'7" Kostas off the bench playing alongside them.

Bumping this thread mostly so I can post this video of St. Catherine's (alma matter of Jim Chones, Jim Mac, and Jake Thomas) beating Dominican last night on a buzzer beater.  The Angels' center Kelly Thomas (not sure if he's related to Jake) juked Diamond to get the game winning shot off.  Go Angels!

Good call, I would assume there would be some relation to Jake given that Jake also went to Racine St. Cat's, if I remember correctly.

Hearing it will be a really close call. RT @MKEWalnut: @jerrymeyer247 but will stone qualify for school?

Stay classy.

Yeah, don't think we need that. Definitely wouldn't be insulting his intelligence here if he were still considering MU.
