Blue & Gold

I’m on my phone so can’t post the tweet, but it looks like we’ve received another verbal commit & I’m pretty excited about this one. John Mitchell @BossMoneyy_ 6-3, 300, 3-star DT from Independence CC

FWIW, the RB’s all went together as a unit to see The Lion King & he was with them.

We are ridiculously stacked at WR.

Maishe Dailey & Bryan Trimble must be paying for their own schooling this year, no? We would have known by now if anyone else was transferring out.

6-8, 245, PF, Overland HS, Aurora, CO.

+1. Cooper looked like he could stand to lose a few lbs. Lol He was turning the ball over & hoisting shots from 30-feet. But unlike against the Zippers, he couldn't buy a bucket (today, nor yesterday).

Did anyone else watch any of "The Basketball Tournament," on ESPN+? Rome, Dru, Wood & Harney were on the Mid-American Unity team. They won their first game against a team named Kohl Blooded (sp?) composed of mostly Wisconsin b-ball alumni. It was considered an upset (?) but they controlled the game. They lost the second game (by 2) to a team named Red Scare made up of mostly Dayton alumni. The Magnificent Mr. Cooper was also on team Mid-American Unity and he pretty much shot Mid-American Unity out of the game. He's definitely not the same Magnificent Mr. Cooper who still haunts my dreams. Lol. Anyway, it was pretty awesome just getting to watch Romeo, Dru & Jeremiah play ball again. Love those guys. Yeah, it was nice seeing Harney again too. Man, has any Zip ever had as much potential as Harney? That is, of course, both a compliment and a critique.

That was not mentioned in the article.

Michael Beaven/ABJ: North Royalton Senior Joey Marousek Commits to Play Quarterback at UA

Nice article on Dru Joyce, Romeo Travis, and Jeremiah Wood still playing ball overseas.

We've offered another JUCO SG. Vincent Cole, 6-6, SG, University of South Carolina Salkehatchie. Also offered by Buffalo.

Idk, but I think our recruiting may be about done till later in the year. For what it's worth, I no longer find anything on twitter about visits or upcoming decisions.

New offer. Jonathan Ned, 6-8, PF, Eastern Florida State College Also has an offer from UC Santa Barbara.

Another early commit with P5 offers 💪😎 Nine verbal commitments and counting...

Verbal Commits dot com says we've offered another big. Michael Graham, 6-8, PF from Canterbury School in Brooklyn, NY. Offers from us, Elon, Robert Morris, Bradley, St. Francis, Marist, Bryant, and Niagara.

We've offered another big Andre Screen, 6-11, 240, C, St. Stephen's & St. Agnes School, Alexandria, VA. (Did I mention him already? I'm too rushed to look.) Also has offers from St. Bonaventure, Mount St. Mary's, Howard, Bucknell, Lehigh, George Mason, LaSalle, Rhode Island, St. Joe's, Fairfield, Boston U., James Madison, Towson, and Columbia.

Keeping my fingers crossed. Offers from Rutgers, Memphis & Purdue and possibly Indiana.

Frank Jakubicek committed to Belmont.

Here's a bit more on J.J. Traynor. VerbalCommits dot com hudl dot com a little thread on 24/7 Sports dot com where Louiville fans are pretty excited about Traynor, though Louisville hasn't yet offered.

Having not seen any of our newcomers play, I'm with you. Cheese is aggressive and has a knack for putting the ball in the bucket. LCJ is streaky, but when he's on he's one of the more difficult-to-guard players in the MAC. If Banks can regain confidence in his 3-point shot he's going to be a strong #3. Being a local product, I'm looking forward to watching LePear Toles. He's a very good all-around player. He just occasionally lacks self-confidence. But once he grows accustomed to the speed of the D-1 game, I think he's going to be a real asset. He can handle the ball & in high school was known for his 3-point stroke.
