Frank just said Anthony Bonner's 6th grade son is 6-3 and he's got excellent perimeter skills.

This is awesome.

Yep. 180 shooter. 50%/40%/90%

#15 Seed, and a first round bye! Well done ladies! We await the winner of Washington and Liberty - with the #2 seed North Carolina in the same quadrant.

You're not missing anything. He's on the radar of or in contact with dozens of D-I programs. Schools are just not prioritizing JUCOs this year the way they are other D-I transfers - same reason the HS class of 2021 is going way underrecruited. Unfortunate timing for anyone trying to get in D-I for the first time. So there's a lot of monitoring of these players, but the offers are slow. I've noticed that the portal news in the past 5 or so days is really starting to shift toward commitments and new entrants have slowed to a trickle, so the offers may start to come in for guys like Leons very soon.

I think the JUCO kids are getting even more lost in the flood of transfers than the high school kids. It is spot programs on SLU’s level could get a steal in this cycle, but it appears everyone is directing the vast majority of their efforts to the transfer portal. With SLU, you can’t underestimate the impact of being a man down at a time like this either. Without a doubt, Stuen’s health is the most important thing. It is just a really bad time to be down a recruiter.

Shades of Izik Ohanon.

I am starting to want this kid.

Not to overreact to one video but that looked like Obi Toppin

The Bills haven’t been in a conference or played Cincinnati (that I can remember off the top of my head)in almost 20 years, yet I still hate them with a passion. To this day I believe if I saw Bobby Brannen walking down the street I would punch him right in the face. I wouldn’t be sad if Danny Fortson got a severe case of Herpes and to this day I wish Tony Bobbitt had been married to Lorena. Don't even get me started on Huggins. All that said, I wish Madsen a healthy college career.

Good for Sekou, but Pepperdine doesn't share all the fun of Southern California. As a Church of Christ institution, there's no drinking or dancing permitted on campus, and they strictly enforce it (yes, they expel students who break the rules). And Malibu is about 25 minutes up the coast from Santa Monica. There's quite a bit of night life in Santa Monica, there's almost none in Malibu. Great views of the ocean, but not much else from a college student's perspective. Romar is a great guy, so at least he'll be playing for one of the good guys.
