Not to my knowledge. I believe this is strictly an athletic scholarship from what he described to me.

Jordan Smith has an offer from SLU after his visit this weekend: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=282

The 15U Jets coach told me a number of his players visited SLU two weeks ago: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=276

After talking to Alex again, I believe what WR meant to tell him was that he WOULD have been chosen.

Alex Kennedy told me that Willie told him he was invited last year.

I spoke with HoopWorld.com's Alex Kennedy about Willie Reed: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=266

From Alex Kennedy at HoopsWorld.com: "Willie Reed – If there's one player that people aren't talking about, but who deserves attention, it's Reed. He's a 6-foot-10 center with amazing length and athleticism. He has worked out in Los Angeles and Las Vegas and impressed everyone that has seen him play along the way. He has a surprisingly good jumper, but it was his multiple alley-oops in each pickup game that made him a favorite to play with among the prospects. Reed's problem is that teams have questions about his character after he left Saint Louis University last year. One of his former teammates, Kwamain Mitchell, had been accused of sexual assault in Reed's apartment. However, Reed was in the living room watching a rerun of the Lakers-Thunder game when the incident took place in a bedroom on the other side of the suite. His presence alone led to a suspension from the university. Even after police declined to take action on the woman's claim and an attorney said that there was insufficient evidence to bring charges against either student, especially Reed, the school still wanted the center to serve a suspension and publish an apology letter. At this point, Reed's parents became very upset and pulled their son out of school. In the months that followed, Reed worked hard with trainers and prepared for the draft. Last year, he was a highly-touted player who received an invite to the Chicago Pre-Draft Camp, but now teams are backing off and he wasn't invited to the combine. If you spend time with Reed, it's easy to see that he's a great kid and the last person you would ever expect to be linked to a situation like this. He has a ton of upside and the skill set to play at the next level. At the end of the day, he just needs to one team to get past the unfortunate incident wrongly associated with his name and then he'll have a solid career in the NBA." I will be speaking to Kennedy tonight to find out more info about the draft and Reed.

That's an interesting attempt at the German language, lol. I have spoken to Breunig's coaches and offered to interview in German, but he's been relatively busy lately.

Thanks. We feel as though it's important to cover not only the immediate future, but also a little down the line. Glad you like it!

Posted a story last night. I'm trying pretty hard to contact the coach at SJNMA: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=244

Some of you have asked, and here you have it. Swopshire is getting pretty big-time interest: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=241

Haven't had any luck contacting his coach or him.

I'll check more into it. I'm not sure who it was, though.

Not that I'm privy to. This late in the game, it's very difficult to find talent.

No worries. If you have anything else, just let me know.

Drew has informed me that he was not at the Fan Fest, if you were wondering.

Drew and Ingram have played against one another. Ingram and Zavier Turner, another SLU recruit, both play for Eric Gordon All-Stars.

Thanks for looking out. Pat did give me permission. However, if you read Facebook's policies and terms of agreement, they own all of the photos once you place them on your page. Thus, I gave credit to Facebook. Hope you enjoy the blog.

Just attributing the photo to its' appropriate source.

Ingram expressed his interest in SLU: http://heardthisblog.com/?p=237

Jared Drew: "I like Saint Louis a lot" -- http://heardthisblog.com/?p=234

Our attempts have been fruitless thus far, but we'll continue trying. Some cooperate better than others.
