I love that the graphic designer was like "what do teens like these days. iphones?" is he in the phone? is he emerging from phone? At a glance I thought the phone was like a full-body stabilization cast like Rachel McAdams wears in Mean Girls and was like, that feels appropriate for Northwestern hoops.

VT got 3 top 100 recruits on campus today for the VT-UNC football game including top 50 CG Rodney Rice, top 80 wing Tyler Nickel, and top 100 PF Braden Huff. Doubt we can pull Huff over Wisconsin and Gonzaga, but good chance to lock up the other two dudes.

News breaking that Allen Flanigan, one of Auburn's like entire roster of guys whose name you probably don't know but are entirely capable of having a breakout year and going in the second round, is out 12-14 weeks following ACL surgery for a non-basketball injury. Presumably misses the Battle 4 Atlantis (is it still the "Bad Boy Mowers Battle 4 Atlantis")? Hope the off-the-court circumstances were funny and not like tragic.

According to one of the South Carolina 247 guys w/ ties to Dorman, we lead heavily, and he's OVing this weekend. Most likely class is supposedly Collins (committed), Nickel, Rice, Clowney.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Yeah agreed.

A weird thing to me is how Philadelphia people act like cheese steaks are pretty much one thing and exactly that one thing but every place I went to there asked me what I wanted on it and had several options.

Not out to be a sandwich purist, that is definitely a better sandwich than the Geno/Pat variety, but there’s gotta be a Philly based UK booster who can gently guide Cal to John’s Roast Pork or somewhere.

This is probably my difficulty, as an academic I can’t imagine any higher purpose to a work trip than ditching it as soon as possible (or whenever the relevant library closes) to find the actual best food.

Does the Big 12 keep it's top tier status with these invites? It's more prestigious than the American I guess but I'm not so sure.

I mean for the purposes of basketball it's still an extremely strong conference, arguably the strongest one at the moment.

For football eh, but that's about to be moot whenever the playoff expansion happens.

If you buy in to Ken Pom and look at the 2021 rankings, Big XII swapped out the 26 (UT) and 39 (OU) teams for the 5th (UH) and 20th (BYU).

UCF (100) and Cincinnati (116) were not good in 2021 but were better than TCU (140), Kansas State (147) and Iowa State (171). Big XII had 7 in the top 40, while those other 3 lagged behind.

UCF is definitely going to be a drag but Cinci was primarily a basketball school until very recently and should at least be a solid tournament team most years

I was gonna bring that up because the last time I had a 247 subscription the Iowa guys all seemed really confident that he was going to wind up at UNC but you seemed so sure I figured something had changed

Yeah his offer wasn't committable yet then, they hadn't made their way down the list to him until this weekend.

E: Specifically they offered because Nova is getting Whitmore.

No idea. I hope he does. Legacy recruit, in-state kid, and highly ranked nationally. The latter is what's important to Cal, but the former means more to the fans. If he doesn't, our crazy fanbase might run Cal out of town for letting him get away.

The one challenge is I believe he plays the same position as Dejaun Wagner's kid, in the same class, who Cal is also going hard after. Watkins, in the video, is his step brother. But that's a Cal legacy, not a Kentucky legacy.

VT picks up a surprise commitment from 3* C Patrick Wessler. 7 footer with some decent offensive game, will need a couple years to contribute likely. What's hilarious to me is he was considered all but a lock to Providence before the head coach separated him from his family on his OV and demanded he commit on the spot or lose his scholarship offer, despite not having a backup C likely to commit. Now Patrick's a Hokie :V
