Yeah there will be some NBA scouts there but I think it's more so for international leagues. Wes Clark participated last year and he's in Italy now I believe.

MVC has been ranked ahead of the MAC 14/18 seasons with KP data. Horizon 11/18, and CAA 7/18. Granted they've each lost one of their top teams to a better conference but that arguably strengthens his point about the strength of their conferences.

Flexes more of the athleticism here at the beginning of this video

I don't think that the takeaway is that he's lightly recruited therefore he is CJ. At least my point was that there is still talent out there and it can't be disregarded due to lack of offers. There's a lot of room between CJ (#1 player on a top 25 team) and a useful player on a MAC contender. The reality is that Gallion is the caliber of player that most mid-majors are after and there are plenty of solid players in the mid major ranks. Gallion picked up 3 of his 5 offers after a big showing at a showcase for the best players available so at least 3 teams feel they uncovered a diamond in the rough, and the Illinois St. offer shouldn't be disregarded as they've been a top 100 team more often than not for over a decade. While he doesn't have high major offers I'd be curious to know how many high majors were at this event looking for diamonds in the rough this late in the process. The staff landed two high major talent pedigrees and then their third priority was Gallion and as of now they deserve the benefit the doubt in my opinion. If our recruiting class on short notice is a Memphis transfer via JUCO, a skilled 3 star Center, a G with D1 shooting ability from day 1, and whatever happens with the last two scholarships that's pretty solid given the circumstances.

Yeah Illinois State, James Madison, Youngstown State, and Delaware State

I too love saying a kid doing what's best for him is "wasting his time" because he didn't choose my beloved school and noted national title contender, Buffalo. This is how I act when I'm confused and very not mad. Even if that's not what you meant, I've seen enough of it on Twitter at our recruits and I'd imagine the people that care enough to tweet that care enough to read this forum. People gotta relax it makes all UB fans look bad.

Is there a reason you're this mad at an 18 year old that you don't know lmao. He gets to play in a major conference in his home state, where his dad also played. Good for him.

I hope so because with Agee and White off the board I don't know of any other big men that we're connected to. Right now our players over 6'8" (Bertram, Fagan, Skogman) have a combined 69 (nice) points at the D1 level and I don't think Fagan is really a big man at this level. I'd like to see us land another quality big, Allen or not, and have them and Skogman rotate at the 5 with Williams and Nickelberry taking the majority of the 4 minutes with Skogman possibly stealing some.

Hopefully you're right but I feel like this is standard stuff. I'd imagine you just never see the jersey pics of the kids that don't commit. He's still got two official visits this week but maybe we're well above the other two in his mind.

Nickelberry is a wing but he's plenty capable of handling the ball, I was watching his interviews and he said the player comp he gets the most is Shaun Livingston because he plays like a tall PG. Our guard depth isn't a concern to me if Segu is a 4th ball handler after Jordan, Johnson, and Nickelberry.

New Mexico state

So was the Durey Cadwell one so maybe they'll free us 😂

Our new coach just followed Andre Allen's mom on Twitter 🤔

Haven't seen anything recent about us still recruiting him but now he's getting some high major looks

Dollars raised does not equal number of donations. I'm guessing track and field at least got theirs mostly from 1 or 2 donations.

Yeah like the crowd funding basic stuff for the teams, I don't think that this is really aimed at the big $ donors, as much as it's about trying to get new donors involved. Athletics still received the greatest number of donations (extra 7.5k), and I'd guess MBB makes up a decent portion of that.

Don't see anything on a commitment but Cadwell's profile pictures are now of him in a Louisiana Lafayette uniform

I believe we did, I'm guessing maybe he received some affirmation that the offer was still on the table with the new staff

He does have offers from Florida and Ole Miss so it's not that's he's not SEC caliber

Turns out Thorpe was a sleeper agent this whole time 😂 This is uh.. surprising, maybe we have people lined up for the frontcourt and he wanted to be the guy or maybe he wanted to go closer to home.

His Instagram story shows him visiting Ohio

RIP the hype 4/23/19-4/23/19

I can't find a Twitter for him but his Instagram still lists Idaho and there's nothing about Houston on it. I would expect more than one source to have it on Twitter if it was true. Hopefully he's still open.

I saw a tweet saying he had committed to Houston, then again we saw one that said Nickelberry had committed to Idaho too. It looks like he has at least visited Houston though, which is some solid competition for us.
