Recruiting as of 4/6

[Freeport Warrior]

NY2LA has their new league playing games, as well as a bunch of non-league teams. WI Playground Elite's performance last year got them a trip out of the EYBL, so they are in NY2LA's league... will Kostas be around? Not sure, but he could be. I believe their league rules allow 3 unsigned seniors per team.

Flory should be her with the Wisconsin Shooters.

Here are the teams in the 17U "league"

I believe the Howard Pulley 16's are playing up in 17U at the NY2LA tourney... but, their top 2018's are with the 17U EYBL team (Tre Jones, Daniel Oturu, Gabe Kalscheur)

Flory just joined Shooters last week and has looked real good -- kid does not miss from 3. That team should be pretty solid now. Brandon Hau, the 6' 8" wing has a D1 offer and Andrew Lewis from MKE Vincent is tough as well.

Funny thing about Playground Elite getting booted from the EYBL is that their 16U team now has a spot and they are absolutely horrible (much, much worse than their 17s (last year's 16s) who went like 1-17 in the league). Because of them getting the boot, Jordan Poole will play with Mac Irvin during the league.

I'll look for you at Hopkins this weekend JayBee.

How come Scoop hasn't been provided a live feed for the awards banquet?!
Don't they know how vital we are to The Program?

We have questions, dammit!
I demand to know what Wojo knew and when he knew it!

[real chili 83]

I'm credentialed for the NY2LA jawn in Mpls this weekend so must go...

...on the reals, check out this 2020 Jalen Suggs...

I'll have 15 pounds of brisket and a few slabs o pig on the smoker Saturday.  Boys are home from college. You and FPW are welcome to stop by for a bite after the games on Saturday. 

Trying a new recipe from F Dave Anderson for ribs. Involves smearing the ribs at some point in warm bacon grease.

Benny and Sturgeon are getting a little woody right now.   

[Herman Cain]

I'm thinking not only is it a gurantee that someone leaves but I think it's a gurantee we get one of the guys.

I'd be shocked at this point with the opening if Wojo missed on all of them.

Hoping that Wojo uses one of the potential openings on Kostas.

Anybody care to give a bullet pointed update on players we are truly in on that could be coming in in the current recruiting class?

Sounds like Gill (Duquesne) and Carter (UNLV) could be graduate transfers at the PF position?  Young an incoming freshman at the PF/C?  Who was the other big who would be a 2 year transfer after sitting out a year?

Gill and Young have visits set up?  Does Carter have mutual interest or is it "MU reached out" and nothing more?

Anybody else we're pretty seriously pursuing?

Thanks, a lot of long threads that sometimes go off topic so just trying to get maybe a bullet pointed update.

MU reached out to Malcolm Bernard (Florida A&m) but didn't pursue after that

[Herman Cain]

We know.

I still want Gill, Kalif  or any pogo stick 6-8 240 guy we can find.

[GGGG]

Marquette.  Is.  Not.  Recruiting.  Kostas.

But apparently we are still recruiting Eron Gordan.

No thank you

[Herman Cain]

No thank you

Why are you bearish on Kostas?

Unless there is a mass exodus, which there won't be at this point, MU has no room for a project.

He looks like a string bean for sure , but I thought he looked good in the Hoop Summit the other day. Give him a year with Todd and he will look much different physically.

Also I am not saying he will be as good as his big brother but all we need him to be is a quality college player and I believe he can be that.

Also some very good schools don't see him as a project.

Yes they do......they might be willing to gamble but at this point if coaches thought he was as good as you think he is he would have some real offers.....not just interest.

He hasn't taken any visit yet. I expect when the visits come he will get plenty of offers.

[PGsHeroes32]

Why are you bearish on Kostas?

Because all of D1 basketball is?

I'm not trying to have a guy on our team for 4 years out of hope he can be good for 2 of them. Unless it's a big man like Heldt.

Not a full report.  Jet Lag is hitting me hard and was late to the show and only talked to some folks,  I know I am not showing my Warrior side very well right now.


But some updates:

1.   Wally not there, was with Cross country team, but plans to be part of team next year.
2.   JJJ, DW, SA, HC, TC, AR, MH, LF, all good.
3.   SC3 not sure...just don't have info, don't draw any conclusions on this.
4.   Kalif Young still target.  If they can get him or someone else significant they will figure a way to make it work.

When u say if they want young or someone else "they will make it work "....Wojo and fam thinking of adopting?

EYBL is in session #1 this weekend.. so Poole won't be in MN? ugh...

My timing is up in the air, but generally when I'm credentialed I try to wear neutral colors instead of my usual gear. That said, I'll send my # your way in PM's. If you need anything when in town, please don't hesitate to ask and I mean that sincerely.
