Frank said on his show today that SLU has offered Aaron Cook and are expecting him to decide soon.

Nice! Let’s bring him home. Would love to see what he can do out there with Collins, Nesbitt, Perkins and Okoro.

Frank said today on his show that Cook hasn’t decided yet if he’s playing another year or not. SLU is definitely in on him if he wants to continue playing.

Which board did you see that on, @3star_recruit? I’d like to check out that thread.

Frank said that the Bonners are in Atlanta right now.

Frank said on his show today that Antony told him that doctors are projecting Brock will end up being 7’1”. After spending so much time playing in Europe, Anthony wants to teach him guard skills as he continues to grow.

Here’s a highlight video from Larry Jr.’s junior year:

He also said Bonner has been in contact about his son, Brock, with Tate and other coaches, including Patrick Ewing.

Here’s a video that analyzes and grades Nesbitt’s skillset. The guy who recorded this seems to be pretty high on him.

I stumbled upon this scouting report/evaluation SI put together about Nesbitt. This just makes me even more excited to see him suit up at Chaifetz next season. https://www.si.com/college/recruiting/basketball/jordan-nesbitt-highlights-evaluation Prospect: SF Jordan Nesbitt Projected Position: Small Forward Status: SI All-American Candidate Vitals: 6-foot-6, 205 pounds School: St. Louis (Mo.) Christian Academy Committed to: Memphis Frame: Lean frame with room to add and develop muscle at the next level. Athleticism: Nesbitt is a long and wiry athlete with elite quickness which enables him to maneuver around and create for himself and his teammates. Nesbitt is shifty and slippery on the wing, and his combination of speed spurts and elite ball-handling skills make him tough to defend. Instincts: Nesbitt is a gifted scorer who can fill it up on all three levels, but has the vision to involve his teammates when he’s drawing attention from the opposition. Nesbitt remains in attack mode but makes good reads on the offensive end and doesn’t force shots. Polish: Nesbitt plays with a high motor but remains calculated in his attack. He doesn’t waste movement on the offensive end; every speed shift and hesitation has purpose and enables him to be effective. As a defender, Nesbitt brings the same intensity and is capable of guarding multiple positions because of his length. Bottom Line: Nesbitt’s size, length and skill as a three-level, high-motor scorer will ensure that he’ll be an instant-impact player at the next level. As he continues to develop as a defender, Nesbitt’s stock should soar during his time at Memphis.

Here’s what he had to say about SLU last summer: "That's just home. All of my family could see me play and it is family oriented. I know all of the players so that's great."

That sounds encouraging. Do you think a commitment may be coming soon, @TheOne?

Think Nesbitt will want to come home, @Coach314?

Wow! Will Ford and Tate go down that road again?

Here is the BBE roster for this summer. I’m surprised Larry Jr. and Tarris Reed aren’t on it.

Another former SLU target enters the portal...

He said he’s meeting with Ford today. I’m sure his future will be discussed and I bet Ford will welcome him back with open arms. He was asked about French as well. He said they haven‘t talked much lately and he’s not sure what he plans to do.

Goodwin is on Frank’s show right now. He said he will meet with agents to see what his chances are of going pro. If they say he will benefit from playing another year in college, he will come back to SLU as long as Ford will let him.

Now that it looks like McKissic is going to Kansas, Frank mentioned Alonzo Verge as another potential target for SLU on his show again today. He said that Verge is already in the transfer portal, although I haven’t seen his name in the portal yet.

I missed that part, but Coach Tate was on Frank’s show today and said they are definitely bringing in three players regardless if Goodwin or French stay or not.

McKissic got his offer from the Bills...

Here are some of the schools that have reached out to McKissic:

Here is the McKissic interview if anyone wants to hear it. https://www.spreaker.com/user/11374414/032321-6pb

Here’s an article about how McKissic will be in high demand: https://247sports.com/Article/UMKC-senior-Brandon-McKissic-hits-the-transfer-market-162881730/ From the article: “Saint Louis University will surely try to make a play to bring McKissic home for his final year of eligibility, but the competition is going to be stiff and at 247Sports we are expecting some fairly high level programs to get involved.”
