[quote="Paultzman" post=403830]Aiden Igiehon a former SJU recruit, got five minutes tonight v SH and non factor again. Another so called elite kid who gets captivated by major power, but in year two seems afterthought. Beware of blue bloods recruiting over you.[/quote]

Free Transfer rule come on down!

Yep.. I’d take him in a heartbeat and we will find time for talent. Kadary a nice one too..
 
Familiar name per Matt Moreno;

I think people forget Jordan Brown was a 5-star recruit and McD’s AA guy.

He shows that today with 19 points and 15 rebounds in his Arizona debut.
 
It is not the start of the CBB season until you hear the voice of Bill Raftery.
Just saw a replay of Gonzaga v Auburn.

Correct you are and Jordan will be a force to be reckoned with. My sons buddy and summer of 2019 BrookwoodElite teammate Benedict Mathurin also had a very good debut with Arizona yesterday with I believe 12 and 4 at the guard spot. Ben has had a super tough life and against all odds is in college thanks in large part to the very caring heads of BrookwoodElite, I am not a coach there by the way just a supportive parent and volunteer lawyer.
Hopefully he can become the next Montrealer of Haitian decent in the NBA following Chris Boucher and Luguentz Dort. If there was ever a hard luck story to root for it would be Ben.

Saint Louis beats LSU despite not having two key players. Love to see Wade lose lol

Van helped build that St L foundation, potential Dance member.

I'm watching Liberty hammer the Gamecocks 68-50 late in the second half. The Flames are fun to watch and seem to have a good squad during the early juncture of the season. They lost to Purdue on Wednesday and then beat Mississippi State on Thanksgiving Day. They'll likely be a team who'll give a high-major fits in the Dance.

A cool and interesting quote from Liberty's head coach, Ritchie McKay. He said (paraphrased), "We don't have 5-star players but we're creating a 5-star environment and culture."

Similarly to how I view our staff are going about their business. Don't get me wrong, as I think we should be able to occasionally land the 5-star recruit (particularly a local kid more so than anything) and garner signatures from 4 (which we've always been able to do and will continue to do) and 3-star talent. But there's something to be said about building a culture.

Why would you root against a Big East team in non conference ?

In his debut as a Gamecock, he didn't look too good today either.
 
I saw mount st marys had a 21-12 lead on maryland. can only imagine the in game thread on their board lol
 
Richmond up 3 on Kentucky with 12 minutes left; game is on ESPN. Good game following this one with #14 Texas Tech playing #17 Houston.

Was thinking the same about their boards too. also. Iowa state was down to arkansas pine bluff for awhile. And ohio state had a tough time with a umass lowell. I know our board would have been lighting up for sure
