Going to be talking to Adam Zagoria tonight about UT and SEC recruiting. Let me know if there's a specific player you want to know about. Obviously, I'm going to ask about Stokes.
Not UT related but any additional Kyle Anderson info would be solid, Poythress, what is the perception of the Martin hire as it relates to recruiting? Does Chris Jones ever make it to a four-year school? Considering NWF has a coach assigned to him 24/7 and was told by a college coach over the summer "he can ball, but is totally crazy" I have doubts about him. Not recruiting but any additional insight he has behind Kevin Boyle going to Montverde and did he have any college offers?
Said the kid and his coaches are almost impossible to read. He wouldn't be surprised if he signed with any of the teams still on his list.
Florida is in it for Anderson, but thinks it'll end up being St. John's or UCLA. He was in a hurry, so I'll ask him about Jones and Boyle next time I talk to him.
This question maybe UT related. What exactly do you do hat? If you don't mind me asking? You talk to alot of big names.
I asked him specifically about Cooley. He thinks he's a really good recruiter. Adam thinks he's going to get Ricky Ledo, too. Providence also has boatloads of playing time at the Big East level. That's a draw.
This thread was closed/locked. I opened it back up... I don't think I'm imagining this. But to keep the ball rolling, what's the word on Stokes?
Got to know some coaches various ways over the years and it's one of those deals where once you know a few, you usually end up meeting a bunch more. At the end of the day, those guys are hoop junkies. If you can discuss hoops and know what you're talking about, they welcome you into the discussion.
Very, very true. I also fit in pretty well with those guys because I'm a nocturnal creature and their profession almost mandates they be such.
