twballgame9 {l Wrote}:Less strange is that he has grossly underachieved with all of that talent. Really, two very good seasons in a sea of mediocrity.

There's no diversification of talent. It's just a bunch of 6'10 athletes who can't play basketball. He also stinks at coaching.

It's only a matter of time until Leonard Hamilton gets rung up for NCAA violations. Their recent string of getting 4/5* kids is very strange

Corporal Funishment {l Wrote}:In non-made-up recruiting news, We offered Cameron "I take a bark out of crime" McGriff yesterday - 6'6 wing from Texas. Also, today is the start of the July live periods. We're officially in Coaches Watching AAU Teams Play Season. Soon to be followed by perennial favorites List Season, Official Visit Season, Third Place/"Moral Victory"/Board Meltdown Season, If Everything Goes Right Maybe We Can Make the NIT Season, and Epstein Calls Us the America East All-Stars Season (aka, basketball season). Whoo!

I think we've graduated from the America East All-stars. But the rest of it pretty much.

No insider info but the Gabriel recruitment is getting really crowded which is never good for BC

Gabriel picked up ND, Texas and I believe Vanderbilt offers in past few days (think he's with AAU teams at Peach Jam in ATL)

Boston College offers 2016 6'4 PG DeJon Jarreau (@LaDeeky) and 6'8 PF Brison Gresham (@bri_son32) @VerbalCommits

Then there's this, which may be related and which made me laugh

Boston College recruit hard in the BOOT

Louisiana is an odd place for this staff to be recruiting.

Christian Vital kicks off list season with a top 16(!). Not the most inspiring top 16 of all time but when you go to 16, there's gonna be some filler, right?

Brown, 6-4, 200-pounds from Saxtons River (Vt.) Vermont Academy, listed Indiana, Michigan, Massachusetts and Boston College were recruiting the hardest. Out of these four, UMass is pursuing him with the most vigor.

Screw that. This is Steve Donahue approach to recruiting 101.

This. Attending Boston College is a privilege. Anyone would be lucky to spend their college careers there.

You guys are both nuts. if we get back to the Top 25 every year then maybe.

twballgame9 {l Wrote}:BC is not going to return to the top 25 with players that get offers from Kentucky and Duke. Keep recruiting them, fine, but it's a completely lost cause.

twballgame9 {l Wrote}:Is that Turner on the left? He's a little taller than advertised, which is nice.

BCSUPERFAN22 {l Wrote}:Not sure if this was posted here, but Shawntrez Davis from Ga, who signed with Texas Tech and was a BC target, is playing at JUCO Palm Beach State.

Apparently he didnt qualify academically to play at Texas Tech, which explains why BC couldn't seriously pursue him. John Carlos Reyes tweeted something about it, and I wonder if BC could be a player for him next year if his academics are in order (I believe Reyes and Davis played at same HS)

Yeah, looks almost as tall as Reyes. Nice.

EDIT: For those who don't know who's who: Top Pic - Turner, Milon, Robinson, Reyes, Barnes-Thompkins

Yes and yes, that is the idea.
