I'm taking this in a completely different direction and focusing on Courgette Bonham from the UK.

Is this the name of a prospect? Nothing came up when I googled.

No, it's an obscure reference joke that only Dennis Miller could be proud of.

A foodie who enjoys classic rock will get it.

Watts to Mississippi State?! That’s shocking!

Is there an equivalent player we can go after? Do we have a shot at Missile Amps?
No, his recruitment blew up. No shot. Now we need to recruit Scud Missile to counter.

Scud couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn. Hard pass.
Yeah, at ABCD camp he was constantly defended by a French kid named Patriote Missille.

Starksville is in the middle of nothing and there is nothing around it for miles. It is nothing like Storrs at all as there are a number of things to do. Oxford is awesome and a great college town with plenty to do.

Yeah, my bad. Got my Missiles confused. Scud is a rebounder, Patriot is the sharp shooter and defensive stopper.

If you've been educated in Mississippi, you take a look at the map and think, "I've heard of every one of them," and that you're in the middle of a lot of famous places. Ya just gotta be a bit dyslexic for Eupora to make an impression.

Starting to attract attention is Booster Lumens, a Oklahoma JuCo from the Phillipines who shot 45%+ from 3 as a freshman using a Rick Barry underhand free throw motion, but, also the same percentage from the line, so opponents would straregically foul him before he could get into motion outside the arc.

He has also confused recruiters by showing interest in G League, South America, completing his Associates degree, and the Globerotters.

Just started following Rocket Watts on Twitter & IG, with a recent Watts retweet that hinted a package deal, and linked NASA, Kelvin Sampson, Elon Musk,and Tillman Fertitta. Expect a long countdown on this one.

The Boneyard wouldn't have patience for Rocket Watts:

33.6 fg%, 25.3 3p% and poor defense...I'd be happy to have taken a flier on him, but my expectations for him wouldn't be high.

He's not taking away minutes from Molinar (16.7p) and he's competing for minutes w/ NC State transfer Shakeel Moore (6.8p, 34.4 3p%). Their top '21 recruit, Camryn Carter, is a 6'3 guard.

Molinar/Moore/Watts are all 6'3 and shorter so the three of them will likely never play together at the same time.

Booster Coulomb. kid's a force who lit up kali juco circuit. kinda surprised that he's flying so far under the radar, but i expect that any day now he'll take off in the rankings. magnetic. a real joule, notwithstanding his weird diet of fig newtons. dude's electric.
