stlsfinest Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 The kid dropped 26 points on Mizzou recruit Marcus Denmon. Linn took 4th place, but Donnelly definitely had a coming out party on the 3-star prospect. I wonder if Majerus is still looking at this kid. Hopefully Linn can get a game in St. Louis so you guys can see this kid in action. I remember that there were some questions on this board about whether or not he could perform against quality talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign. him. up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p diddy Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 on friday against Lutheran North, he had nine turnovers and shot 1-11 from the three and LN had no mizzou recruits. they even had a freshman out there harrassing him into turnover after turnover. bad boyz for life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3star_recruit Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 You're not going to convince anyone of Donnelly's value as long as he plays for Team Missouri, V. The competiton just isn't strong enough on a regular basis. Playing for Team Excalibur hamstrung Harrellson in a similar manner. Is Donnellson playing for the Eagles or Gateway this year?

The competiton just isn't strong enough on a regular basis. Playing for Team Excalibur hamstrung Harrellson in a similar manner. Is Donnellson playing for the Eagles or Gateway this year? First of all, I'm not "V." You should really get your facts straight about the schedule that Team Missouri plays. They've been to the Nike Memorial Day Classic and the Howard Pulley Sabes Invitational. (Those events are usually exclusive to Nike programs only, but Team MO got the invites.) They've been to the Vegas Main Event, AAU Supershowcase, Mullen's High Profile, Jayhawk Shootout, Eddie Ford's Grassroots Shootout, Hoosier Shootout, etc. Most of these events are attended by the Eagles and/or Gateway. What else do you want?? This year, I believe they are even going to the Pitt Jam Fest, one of the top three events of the Spring. Most of the elite Reebok teams will be in attendance. Again, what else do you want? This program has already helped send a few players D1. I don't have to convince anyone of Donelly's value, 3. I simply pondered if Majerus was still looking at Jayme. I didn't bring him in for a visit...Rick Majerus did. If he turns out to be another Roth, what will be the reaction on this board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3star_recruit Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 First of all, I'm not "V." My bad. You should really get your facts straight about the schedule that Team Missouri plays.

What else do you want? You and I both know that the big tournaments have gold/silver/bronze type designations that indicate the level of talent on display. Team Missouri doesn't play the top teams at the high-profile tournaments. I don't have to convince anyone of Donelly's value, 3. I simply pondered if Majerus was still looking at Jayme. If you're bringing him up, it's obvious that you think he has value that others' don't. No one else is talking about him. didn't bring him in for a visit...Rick Majerus did. If he turns out to be another Roth, what will be the reaction on this board? "We shoulda offered him earlier" "He's too one-dimensional. I want XYZ player." "In Majerus we trust." "He doesn't defend well enough to play here." You know, the usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlsfinest Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 They were not at those tournaments. Good to hear from you OJ! You are absolutely correct! By the way, here are two Rivals.com links that talk about Team Missouri playing at the Sabes Invitational last May. http://rivalshoops.rivals.com/content.asp?...&CID=672519 http://rivalshoops.rivals.com/content.asp?...&CID=672847 I'm pretty sure Team MO was at the Nike MDC in Spring 06, but you are obviously the expert.

old school 12 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 They were not at those tournaments. Victor: This is Jayme's Old Man and also the director of Team Missouri. Yes, we did play at Nike Memorial Day Classic/Nashville in 2006, and Howard Pulley in 2007...In fact the Eagles played us and beat us by 20...so check with Mister G. We have been invited to play at Howard Pulley again this season and will be there in May. We should have most of our roster this time around in Minneapolis, so we should do a little bit better. Team Missouri is a non sponsored group out of Mid Missouri. We don't have the resources of major shoe company sponsorship to select players. But we do compete and our kids play hard. Several examples...wins over Arkansas Wings, CJ Miles All Stars out of Dallas, Houston Lynx, Team Adidas to name a few...a one point game with former Nike team Martin Brothers...and a three point loss to Rocktown..with George Goode, Issac Miles and several other shoe company all stars two years ago. Made the Indiana Elite July Final 4, won the Great American Shootout NCAA in Dallas and Finshed 2nd in the Bronze division at Rockin the Rock over the past couple of years. We do play a tough schedule for a small scale summer team. This spring: Eddie Ford's Grassroots Shootout, Pittsburgh Jam Fest, Texas Showcase in Dallas and Howard Pulley. With that being said, I have a good relationship with the Eagles' administration and respect them for their wonderful program in the St. Louis area that has produced many great, great players and the guys that coach them...its amazing...they never seem to have any turnover in coaches!!! As far as Jayme goes, he played like crap on Thursday night at state and he will be the first to admit it. Everyone has those nights, including the famous Billiken game at GW this season. Alot had to do with Lutheran North and the fine game they played. But give credit where credit is due. To be able to bounce back and put 26 on Marcus Denmon surprised some people from out of town, but was not a surprise to people in Mid Missouri who have seen Jayme play on a regular basis. Denmon is a very good player and defended Jayme throughout the game. Jayme had no problem getting his shot off against a very quick, athletic, big wingspan guard and to be honest Jayme made Denmon look a little confused on a number of plays. Coach Majerus says Jayme reminds him of a "high school Travis Diener". In addition to 46% from 3, Jayme also had 190+ assists this season and was second leading rebounder. The Linn HS schedule is not class 5, but I think it was quite a bit better than Maplewood's overall and I don't think it would matter who Maplewood would play anyway, as they have a great team and player Bryant Allen, who plays alot like Jamaal Tatum. He has a great future ahead of him and hopefully he will be a Billiken. Hopefully you will have an opportunity to see Jayme and our other kids play this spring and summer. Good Luck and I enjoy reading the board, even though you take quite a few shots at my kid. The Zac Efron references were a classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old school 12 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 so dad, does your son have an offer from slu? who else is recruiting/offers? thanks and good luck No offer, just interest..and that's ok, he will play somewhere. UNI, UWGB, Colorado State, NW State (LA), Marshall all showing interest as well..we'll see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Luck and I enjoy reading the board, even though you take quite a few shots at my kid. The Zac Efron references were a classic. I am sorry I was wrong about the tournaments. There are always teams saying they were at tournaments and I don't see them, but I forgot your group has always played 17's so I wouldn't have seen them in Nashville and I didn't go to MN last year. Just so you know I would never and have never taken a negative shot at a kid I know, and I have known Jayme for some time now. I am happy that he was able to lead his team to state. Maplewood's schedule is hamstrung by our weak conference and teams reluctance to play us, because "we have nothing to gain from playing Maplewood." We pretty much had to trick Gateway Tech into playing us and drive out to Linn to do it. MICDS and Meramec have come up with convenient reasons for not allowing us into their tournaments, while letting far inferior teams from our conference in. But we got into and won the most important tournament we could. The thing is Bryant's numbers remained pretty consistent throughout the playoffs with that of the regular season and he has a lot of D1 coaches in the gym every night to see him and quite a few have offered him. So maybe just maybe our schedule is perfect for what we want to accomplish free college educations and state championships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we can arrange another game for Maplewood at Linn in the Shootout January 09. I think coach wanted to come back and they have a fine team.
