[Mr. French]

We need to check on Stores Jr. 2025 from St. Rays

 

[SouleMan]

Wonder if there's a different feel in the gym when Hurley walks in now.

No chance. He said he wants to play for a championship.
So he chose... Auburn

Dan Hurley walking into the gym like

I’m sure he gets way more handshakes and elbow sex from coaches. But I doubt players really notice who’s watching, unless they’re looking for the Cals and Selfs.

We will need another big after Clingan is a lottery pick in 2024.

4. Five-star SG Meleek Thomas – NH LIghtning 17u​

Meleek Thomas plays with a certain amount of electricity that is both exciting and productive. He is a very good point-of-attack defender, using his quick feet and hands to disrupt the point of attack. But he is also a fearless scorer.


He is No. 3 in the 2025 On3 75. Danny Hurley from UConn was courtside. So were assistants from Kentucky and North Carolina.

Are we in on Cooper Flagg or is he Duke/UK bound at this point

I think that would probably be a waste of resources.

Don't think we've even bothered, he's called Duke his dream school and I'm not even convinced any college should bother recruiting him

He played vs Stewart this year and had a really nice game. I can't seem to find it any more on youtube. I'm not sure quite where he would fit in our system... an undersized 5, but not really skilled enough to be a 4. He would fit more of the Johnson/Akok mold but he has more bulk. I thought we'd moved away from that a bit in our recruiting. I remember a big body with a little bit of skill around the rim. Will be nice to watch him more this summer and get a better sense of what he can do.

Maybe another Sanogo type player?

Cofie has much more faceup skill, but I wouldn't call him nearly as strong around the rim or on defense at the same stage. More of a tweener. Sanogo was always built like a brick sihthouse.

Again, this is all my memory from 4 months ago when I was mostly paying attention to Stewart. And it was only one game. It will be interesting to see what kind of #s he puts up this weekend. I'll try to watch a game later if I can catch it.

The way they have the stats collected for EYBL is much, much better this year. Should easily be able to get every players stats for each game, and for the season seamlessly

Betsey, for example: Tyler Betsey - 2023 Elite Youth Session
