RE: Class of 2024+ - Hurlburt88 - 09-28-2024

Can't coach height!  But Eric (coach reveno) can coach a heck of a lot of other things.  I'm excited about this commitment!

RE: Class of 2024+ - bl82 - 09-28-2024

Nor can you coach quickness/speed and agility -- and Skrinda appears to have a heckuva lot of that for someone his size.

So, may foreign players receive NIL, or not? I thought not, but recent comments make me wonder. It would make foreign athletes all the more desirable.

International student-athletes cannot receive NIL within U.S. borders due to their F-1 visas. However, they can receive NIL money back in their home country. For example, Lifetime Cardinal pays Maxime Raynaud whenever he goes back home to Paris in the offseason.

Wow! After watching just a few minutes, I went from very happy to absolutely ecstatic. Can't wait to get this kid on campus!

RE: Class of 2024+ - PVTree - 10-01-2024

Have we ever had a point center? I saw him bring up the ball a few times, and he looked like a natural doing it.

RE: Class of 2024+ - BobK - 10-01-2024

Maybe Carlos Bea ? Yes I saw him play

Right on, he looks like a guard when he handles the ball driving to the hoop.  You want to keep checking to make sure he is really almost 7 ft tall.

Flipped a '25 PG from Harvard.

247Sports finally has us listed with commits, with both him and Kristers. They list Ebuka as 50th ranked PG in his class.
But they also still list Jerod Haase as our head coach so that adds a bit of skepticism to their accuracy.
They also list us with 4 other Prospects.
But the chances of us landing one of these prospects might be similar chance to Christie Brinkley calling me up for a blind date.

FWIW, it's very clear 247 doesn't care about us and I recommend not using them as a source of truth.

• At least one 2025 prospect we've offered more recently that isn't listed as being offered by us, despite his other offers correctly being listed (Iceland C Fridrik Leo Curtis)
  
• Okorie marked as never being offered by - or committing to - Harvard (among other offers), and never being offered by us despite his commitment
  
• Skrinda apparently weighs 0 pounds
  
• 2026 commit Jones marked as never being offered by us despite his commitment
  
• We offered 10 2026 recruits in October. 247 missed SIX of them.
  
• Haase is apparently still our head coach

I can add offers to the first post if you want to post them. Or is there a good source on the web -- obviously not 247.
