2024 Recruiting: Ahmad Nowell to Announce July 23rd

[navery12]

Anyone else find ot odd that he would list 1PM CT on the announcement.

No, people in the central time zone are also interested in the commitment and follow 247

If I'm not mistaken, 247 headquarters is in Indianapolis which is CT.

All 4 schools are ET, nothing to see here, move along.

I get nervous ever since we got Timberlaked

Or Kasongoed

Or Kasongoed

Kasongo to the Jungle never came through.


And that was alright by me.

I’ve been telling my girlfriend “big day Sunday” and “something big happening July 23rd” for a week now.

99% I’m getting broken up with when she finds out it was a UConn commitment this whole time.

If she gets upset just tell her to relax and calm down.

My thought is that he can’t wait to announce his choice as CT.

Like his game a lot the more I see. I lean towards big guards but he has that strength and ability to change the game no matter his size. Mid range ability looks nice too as well as strong finisher. Add to that they say he’s a pesty on ball defender, what’s not to like?

Self-made 3pt shooter is kind of a funny modifier and I'm not exactly sure what it means.

It's a nice way of saying he works hard to improve... but yeah, it's stupid phrasing. Is anyone not a self-made shooter?

Ray may have come out of the womb bombing 40% from NBA range, but most other people had to work for it.

Even Ray was quoted as saying...

“When people say God blessed me with a beautiful jump shot, it really pisses me off. I tell those people, ‘Don’t undermine the work I’ve put in every day.’ Not some days. Every day.”
— Ray Allen

I guess it means either you try or you don't.

Watching tape of him brings the term “bucket getter” to my mind. Dude is both a scorer and a facilitator based on what’s needed and what the defense is giving and trying to take away.

We did get a lot of rain lately.

Kinda funny phrase for sure. Does this mean that Andre Jackson was a self-made bad 3 point shooter? I mean we know he worked real hard to be the best he could be.

Reminds me of Kyle Lowry. The game, the build, from Philly.

Said that too, combo KEA and Lowry. I know I will like him more than I do Lowry though lol.

Even Ray was quoted as saying...

Ray was notoriously neurotic about his shooting practice and routines. Wouldn't be surprised if he was somewhere on the OCD spectrum.

I typically hate comparables, in general, but nice work on that one.

For those who want to follow the commitment announced live:

500 shots a day, I thought

 

[Khal Drogo]

Well?

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I got the Yankees game on the TV and 247's YouTube on the laptop.

Good omen that Dan Hurley is being interviewed in the booth!

Update: the link will go live at 2:12
