    Prospect told me he is hearing from several D3 schools but isn't listening to them because he is focus on D1s even though none have talked to him. Players treat every school as an opportunity to play in college and get an education!

    Prospects who think they are "too good" for D2 basketball please turn on CBS right now and watch D2 National Championship. These teams could beat alot of D1s. Players found right level & have excelled!

    Not a single college coach I talked to wants change to July. So why are NCAA and NABC changing it? Changing a rule that involves 100% to stop the 0.01% problem is stupid! 1,000 player camp would be the worst way to evauluate players per EVERYBODY. Hurts everyone involved!

    Totally agree! So many kids & people around them get offended when you say a player is D2 or D3/NAIA. They take it as "If you don't think I'm D1 then you think I'm not a good player." It is about finding level where you can succeed not having the "status" of D1 while not playing

    GREAT quote from Bogan standout PG Jeremiah Washington @k1ssmyjays___ on Ferris St commitment! "There’s nothing wrong with going D2. I don’t want to go to a D1 and not play where I can go to a D2 and play a lot and win at the college level" Wish more guys would think like this!

    #Illini commit AJ Storr is at it again today scoring in a variety of ways. Deep three ball, transition slams, moving without the ball on cuts. Very impressive weekend for him! @storr_aj @ILHoopStars @PHCircuit #PHLiveSZNKickoff

    The fact teams get technical free throws for dunking in warm-ups of a state playoff game is absurd
