Recruiting as of 3/15/24

[Tha Hound]

They are in full QG mode.

Joey's timing was perfect.

They know it is a reach, but they are not going to just say good is good enough, they want great.

Goal right now is to get an on campus visit from QG.

Wojo & Stan watching QG; CC w/Joey, Wojo was as well earlier.

Good chance both will play at same time later tonight.. then, Nobal 20 mins away

Did you get caught in the crowd at the Cashman Center last night?  Heard some local sports talk guys  talking to Addidas Summer Championship's director Ron Montoya on the radio this morning.  Sounds like it was nuts.  Fire marshals almost cancelled the game.  Zion Williamson versus LaMelo Ball...

Massive crowd delays, nearly cancels LaMelo Ball AAU game in Las Vegas

Was not present for that mess... but, BBB plays again in an hour & a half on the same court (and where Joey is currently playing)... might stay in my media seat for a great view... or might steer clear :/

If it makes you feel any better, Ron Montoya said they had beefed up police/security for the remaining marquee games...(?)

Sweet, good stuff.  Any chance Nobal's, Joey's, or Grimes's game are streamed like last night?

Joey & Q aren't on the main court tonight. Coach Nelson & Wojo are standing by Joey's waiting for the prior games to finish.  So now all 4 coaches have been at adidas

I'm going to try to make it to Nobal's game, but traffic is ugly now... hopefully better when I leave. 25 min drive..

---
Edit: games running way behind. May stay at adidas & try to catch Nobal's game at 2:30p tmrw (at a closer gym too)

Haven't seen you mention it.  Where you staying JB?

First time on Fremont. El

Hit the Thai place across the street.  Fantastic.  East Fremont has become very cool in the last 5 years.

Le Thai I think it is. Was going to tonight but the coach's/media hospitality room was filled with raising canes just as I was about to leave and I only have room for beer now. Might try a late lunch or dinner there tomorrow, thanks for the input, looks good!

Correct. Late lunch is perfect.  Specials until 3p.

Gotta think LeDee is off the list.  Can anyone confirm?

Maybe but I wouldn't cross him off just yet. This article is from a week ago (3 days before Joey commit):

"Coming in and being me" seems to be very important to Mr. LeDee.

Your operative words.  We'll leave him on for now but I suspect he's gotten his last Wojo call.

Marquette: “They like me a lot. They been on me since the jump; I already had an in-home visit when them. They want me to come in and kind of do what Henry Ellenson did with them.”

Win the Fan Duel Classic?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Win the Fan Duel Classic?

2K Classic?

[Jay Bee]

Couldn't wait. Just put in an order.

MU has viewed Jalen Johnson. Obviously early, but he's going to get a million offers & have many of the big boys involved

Heading to see Nobal at 2:30

[DienerTime34]

Do we have a scholarship for QG?

[Jay Bee]

Do we have a scholarship for QG?

We currently have 13 scholarships available for 2018-19.

[The Lens]

2K Classic?

The FanDuel Legends Classic.  Incredible that we haven't hung a banner for that one.   Maybe for the 5 year anniversary.  Won't be a dry eye in the house when that thing gets hoisted to the rafters of the FoxConn Center.

Good for you JB.  With a nice cold one at their 6 stool bar, I presume.  All good.

So a funny and off track story.  Notice the interesting steel architecture on the exterior of the building?  jsglow jr. had his HS Senior portraits done in and around that block by our LV photographer.  In one of the shots he's sitting on that curb with La Thai's building in the background (restaurant didn't yet exist) and got accidentally photobombed by a full fledged pimp walking behind him. (No we didn't select it!)  But the very next exact same shot on the digital film served as his MU matriculation announcement.  Ready for 16th and WI we figured.

Oh, wow. The chef/owner is from Milwaukee, used to be roommates with one of my friends from high school.

Yes, ate at the little bar, but my old ones were limited to Diet Coke. I *think* last night I would up in a place next door called "don't tell mama" 

Watching PGE 17's.. of course all the coaches are commenting how a certain player is the best to come out of Wisconsin ever

Nobal still has a loooooong ways to go.

Carlos Curtis can play. Give him a few more inches (nh) & the high majors would be circling
