courtside Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 1 hour ago, thetorch said: 2nd cousin!!! To Donny Ross!!!! I'm sold!!! My sources say he is actually, 3rd cousin once removed. Luke is probably the best shooter out of STL in a decade. Range to halfcourt, can shoot off the catch or the dribble. A little undersized at 6'2 SLU so far has competition from the likes of Colorado St and Belmont. Your sources, unsurprisingly, would be wrong.

courtside Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 1 hour ago, brianstl said: He looks really good in the AAU and team camp video I have seen from the spring/summer. His mom was a volleyball player so perhaps he can squeeze out a little more height too. His dad of course is the long time high school coach at Vianney, and, a former D-3 hooper of average height. ………….. Looks like Dillon Duff will be a Power 5 Football QB. He has offers from Minnesota and Indiana, and, he has lots of interest from several others. He’s the best athlete of the Duff brothers. 6’3.

He can create off the dribble, as well. His dad Kevin is the head coach at Vianney. Walsh is a pure shooter. He will have high percentages in all categories. When my daughter was in 7th grade, Luke was in 6th grade and they both participated in this free throw shooting competition that the Knights of Columbus run throughout the State of Missouri. I think it is for kids in 5th through 8th grades. They start at their school, then go to a district competition, then a regional competition, and then to the State finals in Columbia. Both Luke and my daughter made it to State that year. They ask for volunteers to shag the balls for kids as they take their shots. I was randomly assigned to help the 6th grade boys, so myself and another dad ended up collecting the basketballs when Luke was shooting. They get three warm up tosses and then take 25 shots. When it was his turn, he made all three warm-ups and then made 24 out of 25 of his official shots. So, basically, he made 27 out of 28 shots as a 6th grader with the pressure of competition and a championship on the line. willie and Pistol like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Ben Winker at CCP is going to be a top 100 kid (maybe higher) by the time he is heading into his senior year of high school. We need to offer the kid now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to offer the kid now. Yeah, was just advocating for an offer on MMP's Twitter account the other night. He's made dramatic improvements since last year. I think he's got a good amount of development left in the tank, too. I don't want to see him be like a Turnbull or Northweather that we just wait too long on. I think we should offer Johnny Jordan, too (2026 guard at CCP). brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it seems for whatever we just don't recruit well there under Ford. In general, what Jolly and Cory are the only two in the last 15osh years from a stats that size? Maybe its just geography more than coaching staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
