...he reminds me of the floppy haired guy who used to be the envy of us oldtimers,,,,,,Pete Maravich.

I see Pete in Zach every time he's out on the floor.

Appearance wise, that is.

Don't let that image die, Self.

Keep it.

Dude just keeps moving up in the world despite having the stink of Weis on him

I've been talking about him. I think this kid can develop into a player. I had a lot of coaches in the league tell me during the season they thought he was a legit division one prospect.

Every year we hear about how wonderful things are going only to look physically weak, slow and less conditioned than the other team.

LL was credited in another thread as saying something close to the following at an alumni event:

"we were 2-10 on the field and 0-12 on the eye test."

Why is this usually the case?

Eric Kiesau is Auburn's new offensive coordinator

Coming up at 6:00

Looks like they aren't willing to schedule with either of those conferences because they aren't worth it.
Hopefully this can bode well for the new look Big 12 and we can make scheduling alliance with another conference.

Interesting all around and I figured the "Alliance" wouldn't last since it was a handshake deal and there was nothing really keeping it together.

This is the kind of Center that we need to have on the roster every year. Two kids like this each year would be fantastic. He is going to be so good in our system. He appears to be pretty well put together already as well.

Everything it was advertised. Some hero ball by some TT players.

being made a top priority by chancellor. Already talking to donors about it expect something official this fall.

Does anyone know if these are legitimately good ways to get colleges to see your kids play? Sister in-law is looking at it for her son. 2k seems steep for something never really heard about

If a bunch of Communists occupied the Capital Building and attempted to takeover Congress on Jan 6 Presidential Electoral vote counting day, and those folks got arrested, how should they be treated? Should they be jailed? How should they be treated in jail? Should they be allowed to request vegan meals?

I ask because the fascists who did just that, are being treated pretty well, imo.

That's a big move up for Greg Jones! Big loss for North. Wonder if Dan Lanning is hiring him to try to get his hooks into some of the Liberty North players? Or if it's more so just wanted him for his coaching ability?

Hey all,

Recently, Adrame Diongue, the 6-foot-11, 210-pound center from Compass Prep in Chandler, Ariz., narrowed his list of schools down to Kansas, Illinois, Maryland, Oregon State, Texas, Texas Tech, UNLV, and Washington State. According to his coach, Diongue, the No. 107 ranked player in the 2022 class, is in the process of scheduling some visits, but when I spoke to his coach earlier in the week, he didn't get specific about the schools his star big man plans to visit.

Well, I heard back from Diongue, a four-star prospect, and he told me that he plans to visit Kansas before reaching a final decision. According to Diongue, a visit date hasn't been set yet, but it's currently being worked on at this time.

One of the fastest rising prospects in the 2022 class, a ton of programs have expressed a high level of interest in Diongue, but he's currently working with a list of eight schools. In making a few calls over the weekend, it was made clear to me that this is a player that the Kansas staff is very interested in and has spent quite a bit of time recruiting. Once a visit date is set, I'll let all of you know, However, Diongue made it clear that a visit to Kansas will take place in the future.

What a game. Dotson was incredible, Dok had a huge game, but I didn't remember that Marcus was fantastic the whole second half.
