Some good stuff from Anya here

This makes sense. Schertz and multiple assistants are following him on Twitter.

Trilly has made the call for Anya to SLU

Anya incoming

I hope we get help from 10-13 but as is we're better than last year & many a year really as is.

Rob Avil-LOE...

There's always Jordan GoodRims.

Rob Wave haha!! That’s good and yes, good up and coming artist. SLU Alcindor is the one the media will run with I think

The pub is good but the roster is very incomplete. I'm hoping two more big transfers.

JGood’s tough and a worker. He’ll end up somewhere. Plus there’s always foreign hoops.

Suns are on the brink of elimination in round 1. Tons of top level talent on that roster. Frank Vogel still continues to have no clue how to manage a professional basketball roster I doubt the Vogel defender on here has much to say about this inevitable failure by the worst coach in the league.

As always, Just Win Baby Just Win!

Thanks, @The Wiz. Apologies, I missed your Hunter grades from a few days ago. Had a feeling they wouldn’t be great. As for Traore, when I first looked at his numbers he seemed like the kind of player that would be a great complimentary piece in our starting lineup because of his defense and rebounding (as you mention above), with a focus on baskets close to the rim in the cut-heavy Schertz offense. The hope being he’s still young and the staff/the system could help improve his 3P%. He reminded me a little of Goodwin. But alas, I don’t see him joining team 314.

FWIW, he's saying "Rob Wave." A play on the name of a rapper, Rod Wave, of whom Robbie's a big fan. He's got some good music

Yeah, they don't know they have to win games first . /s

As you can see, I posted a review on Hunter a few days ago. The computer was not kind to Hunter. One of the reasons it was brutal is because unlike many others he has a full set of data. And unlike S3 players(small size sample) it is much harder to turn these players around in terms of improving the data set(he actually declined in a number of areas from Fr to Soph) and it is also harder to fit them into a system.. on a positive note , he did get an A- on steals which was unfortunately cancelled out by TOs (F ). Computer bottom line on Hunter....Lots of points (15+ppg...hero ball) and lots of TOs on a poor team 9-22...sitting out last year for personal reasons and then starting in a new place (will be rusty coming out of the box) computer says best match is ....CTF. The computer labels this player as a ...PROJECT saying in order for CJS to work his magic, he may have to borrow The Wiz's wand. Traore...I haven't seen anything about him showing interest in SLU but this would be a nice get. While on the surface he is not the typical CJS player he would be able to fit into his system. The slash looks like this ..........C+ (2P) / F- (3P) / A+ (FT). While this doesn't look spectacular there are some other key stats...ie Rebs...78th ITN...Stls and Blks...both A. So basically, rebound and defense with a focus on 2P shooting...While showing a C+ average inside the arc he only needed 4 more 2PM (out of 215 att) to rise up to a B+ CJS worthy player. Bottom line...if you can get him...get him

Fify (Avila & Jimerson)

It’s fun to see the publicity but means nothing. It really only helps if you get off to a good start. Win your early games and you will get votes because you were on the radar.

We have one of the best players in the country partnered with one of the best coaches in the country

Why

This is a much, much different top 30 ranking

Is this his second visit?

After seeing Brian's post I'm curious what the computer thinks of Camren Hunter. Another player I'd love to see run through Wiz's computer is Seydou Traore. Let me preface this by saying I don't think he's coming to SLU. I believe I read somewhere that SLU had interest but not sure it's mutual. 3P shooting is rough but would hope that improves under a Schertz system (just a freshman). I really like this kid: 6'7 guard who averaged 12 points 8 rebounds 2 assists 2 steals and 1 block per a game as a freshman for Manhattan.

This is an awful edit.
