    2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley

    OT from McNeely, but Diarra was rated as the 34th best player in the country according to EvanMiya. The "play the best players" argument doesn't break in Nowell's favor unless he has a Steph level freshman season or you really mean "play the most talented players regardless of production" Maybe...

    Koby Brea entered the portal. Please please Coach Hurley

    Based on my vast experience of watching 5 minute highlight videos of both, Brea seems much more like Jordan whereas Hausen is more like Joey C. Brea lives at the 3pt line, then attacks the rim on overplays with a clear driving lane and has some athleticism to finish. Can be sold on either Brea...

    On one hand, Marquette may not see a single digit seed until the Elite 8. On the other, Shaka hasn't made it out of the first weekend in over a decade. For the sake of the Big East, please win today Marquette

    ACC:... “The 4 teams they have added since 2013 are hurting more than helping.”

    I keep seeing this screenshot in the replies anytime someone discusses the ACC, and I want someone to tell me I'm crazy but I'm pretty sure it's BS. I quadruple checked and I'm 99.9% sure it's a lie and/or factually incorrect... When I first saw it I was skeptical, tried searching for the...

    Quad 1 wins

    Warren Nolan has a nice summary sheet for all teams, including the definitions of the Quads based on H/N/A. https://www.warrennolan.com/basketball/2024/net-teamsheets-plus NET rankings are still in flux, but Kansas and Gonzaga will definitely finish Quad 1. As for Texas and Indiana, they'd...

    2024 Recruiting: Nike EYBL Peach Jam

    Team Takeover almost imploded late but held on for the W. A couple good sequences for Abraham/Ngongba: Ngongba offensive rebound, up and under put back. On defense, Abraham played good perimeter defense leading to a turnover, then finishes a contested layup in transition. Towards the end of the...

    2024 Recruiting: Nike EYBL Peach Jam

    EYBL/Adidas Weekend 2

    I like Isaiah Abraham's potential fit - closest I've seen to someone who can fill Andre's role. 6'7", can defend 1-4 and take the opponents toughest assignment. Limited on offense, but can fit into the scheme. Abraham takes the toughest defensive assignment letting the other guys on the floor...

    Of the 5 incoming freshmen

    Probably Solo Ball, but Stewart not far behind. I expect Singare to be behind Samson for backup C minutes. Ross is a dark horse if his shooting is better than advertised, but he may not be physically ready to contribute big minutes off the bench. I think I haver higher expectations for Stewart...

    Our Next Tight Game

    Possibly. Not many plausible 1 Seeds in the Northeast, so if we are a 2 and some Southern or Midwestern team is the 1 in the East, I could see the committee being hesitant to put us at MSG where we'd have a home advantage. Being on the 1 line makes the East much more likely imo

    New Practice Video

    A lot of Newton's moves, finishing around the basket, and just being a taller PG/CG reminds me a lot of what I've seen from Castle in highlights. Hopefully how we utilize Newton in the offense this year can be a blueprint for Castle in 23-24 and be one of the more seamless transitions for what's...

    Team Net Result

    I've gone back and forth but I'm leaning towards better defense and here's why. Cole, Whaley, and Martin were all good defenders but Cole was a size mismatch issue, Martin was slow laterally and I think the wrist injury hurt his defense, and Whaley took a step back defensively from his BE DPOY...

    Team Net Result

    I would say slight improvement: Gains from roster construction/more balanced skills will make up for departures. Last season we started: CG, SF, SF, C, C with a SF 6th man. When you look at it that way it's easy to see why we were deficient in shot creation/shooting but masked our offensive...

    OT: Connecticut College

    Graduated from Union in 2018 - I'm biased but would strongly recommend Union for those looking for a small liberal arts setting. Trimester system in addition to small class size gives you access to professors and you can tailor your schedule if you plan ahead. Going abroad is huge at Union but...

    Hailey Van Lith 2020 5'7" Guard

    I think AEH is much more of a wing, although she can handle the ball (similar to KLS). My guess is Coombs & Williams backcourt, with Buekers and/or VanLith getting minutes off the bench, then someone steps into a starting role as a Sophomore (similar to Dangerfield last year to this year)...

    Hailey Van Lith 2020 5'7" Guard

    Assuming we don't pick up any guards in the next (2019) class (not sure how seriously we are looking at Zia Cooke, Faith Masonius, others) we will only have Coombs and Christyn Williams on the roster, so there will be a need for multiple guard recruits. Watching Buekers play with the U16 FIBA...
