SLUMS81 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Does getting Nesbitt increase our chances with higher-level recruits - Tarris Reed, for example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell, no. With Reed specifically, he's playing for MOKAN Elite with Damien Mayo and Larry Hughes, Jr., so those guys are all in a different program. Nesbitt is a Brad Beal Elite kid, so it always helps to keep that pipeline going. He knows the BBE/local dudes already on the roster, and there are more behind him that we're recruiting. So if things go well for him at SLU, it certainly can't hurt. I don't think it's going to be a deciding factor for anyone specific, though.

Will be six if Goodwin plays another year. Seems like our relationship with BBE/STL Eagles is in the best place it has ever been. If kids like Nexbitt, Thatch, and Hargrove have success here, the relationship will only get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgeldmacher Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 To add to that comment, BBE's website currently lists 20 players that are in college right now from their program. This list counts Goodwin. That means that 6 of the 20 current college players that came out of BBE are at SLU. That's a pretty big chunk.

3star_recruit Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 PrepHoops agrees that Luke Northweather is trending as a mid-major prospect. Luke Northweather (Mid-Mo Elite 17U) What a show Northweather put on in Louisville! The 6’9” five man from Missouri was outstanding using his size and skill to dominate on the interior. The rising senior has an excellent feel for scoring on the block with seals, spins, and power moves. Soft touch around the hoop. Finished well through contact and was very physical in the paint. Like how deep of a position he consistently got on the catch. Rebounded at a high rate in his area and on the defensive end was a force swatting shots all weekend whether it was other guards or opposing post players. Low-major and mid-major programs should definitely be on this five man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3star_recruit Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Kramer's had two good weekends in a row playing the spot-up shooter role for BBE. His overall game, which he won't get to show much on that squad, reminds me of Mike Crawford. brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if SLU will get in the mix on him, but I definitely think he is a guy that can play at this level with the right fit. The UAB offer makes sense because he is an Andy Kennedy type of player on both ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Kramer is a more physical player than Crawford, he'll post up quite a bit for SLUH when the matchup presents itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford posted up quite a bit in high school and even averaged 9 rebounds a game. That skillset doesn't necessarily translate to college at 6'4 unless you're really strong or really long.

seanwest Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Jalen Hampton from University City is going prep at Link Year. He's top 3 in the state for 2022 alongside Tarris Reed and Jevon Porter. He's 6'7 with elite athletic traits, defensive stopper on the wing, and an outstanding slasher. Been playing with us over at Michael Porter Jr. elite AAU program and he's been awesome. Plays hard every game and a competitor, once live period rolls around offers will flood in from Mid to High-Majors. wgstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’ve seen some really slick videos on social media that you have put together, great to have you on the board. When you have time could you provide a run down of some of the kids in your program? The Porter kid is so intriguing to me, Romar appears to have gotten a stud before he blew up. What does the AAU season look like this summer for those of us who want to try to follow along? And while I’m bothering you, can you tell me a bit about Link Year and the prep school in Nixa, We Are United, I’m seeing some intriguing names linked to both and candidly don’t know anything about either. thetorch likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
