by way of Great Britain and national powerhouse Long Island Lutheran 6’8”

COBL as a site has been around for many years and is very well run by Josh Verlin. It is often my go to for Philly area hoops info and is also very reliable. They run prospect camps in the summer and have great coverage this time of the year for all the playoff HS and college conference tournament games going on.

watched him play in HS at St Joe's Prep - wore the prestigious #10 on the same team as Jeremiah Trotter Jr.; All-Ivy LB too - would be a 'smart' pick up.

His introduction to the UB community -

Watching now on YouTube

Good win, able to watch the 3rd and 4th quarters and read afterwards first win in DeKalb since 2004 (?) could this be true?? And second road win in a row. Watson is a straight bucket and look out once Ogden and hit a 3 with even somewhat consistency, 0-5 tonight - oof.

watching my Sixers get back on track versus the Houston Rockets yesterday 1/15/24, with about 5 minutes to go our guy subbed into the game wearing #19, I started watching intently once again - 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 foul, 0-2 from the field, 2-2 FT: 2pts - and a whopping +10 while on the floor - it was good to see especially when Reggie Bullock and Boban didn't get into the game.

New OC! Surprised no one shouted it out. https://buffalonews.com/sports/buffalo-football-offensive-coordinator-dave-patenaude-dj-mangas-maurice-linguist/article_ab2b0f88-a669-11ee-af28-b3883aa35f8d.html

their opponent Archbishop Carroll is a middle of the pack Philly Catholic League team - they can compete

I was at that game! I chose not to rush the field as I was a recent college grad and was thinking of my new job and not wanting to get arrested. I believe I remember a feeble attempt to bring down the goal post

Unfortunately, Coach Killings has Philly inroads with his coaching experience at Temple, not that Halcovage doesn’t.

another Philly Catholic League kid - Archbishop Wood, playing along side Jalil Bathea, last years PCL POY. Should be fun to watch their recruiting stories and the upcoming season.

Yes and yes - Philly Pub champs, PIAA champs and playing summer ball with the excellent Team Final squad. This season Imhotep will be lead by their 5star guard Ahmad Nowell, he has all of the typical P-5 offers. Taylor is good, I was at their PIAA quarterfinal game against PCL foe Archbishop Ryan with their rising senior center Thomas Sorber who this summer committed to Georgetown, he has 2 inches on Taylor and he struggled a little against Sorber. He should have a bigger presence to balance the team's scoring with Nowell shooting and driving as well as he does. I like that UB got in early on him as well.

but of course, they have that N-G connection
