Hoop Dreams vs. Hoop Reality
If you're a fan of Big 10 basketball or college basketball in general you know about Evan Turner, the stud wing and bellcow for a top 10 Ohio State Buckeye club. Additionally, if you're a Big 10 hoops fan you've probably heard of Demetri McCamey as well. McCamey is a star for the Illinois Illini...
John Wall to UK
No not the Island across the Atlantic you cheeky bastards. The fightin' Ashley Judds of Kentucky. John Wall pulled the trigger, figuratively of course, and decided on John Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats over Duke and Frank Haith's Miami Hurricanes. If you're scoring at home, Wall's addition makes...
Fun With John Wall and Renardo Sidney
John Wall was cited for breaking and entering on April 27th. Even though the story itself is worth little more than a raise of the eyebrow, the funny part is that the actual article couldn't be more cliched if it were taken right out of the script from He Got Game and you switched Wall's name to...
Some Thoughts on the Jordan Classic
Jordan Hamilton's debut was predictably rusty. The good news is that Jordan has all the tools and the willingness to use them. Forced some shots but who doesn't in games like this? Hamilton showed a nice handle, a fluid release shooting the ball, and the willingness to defend. He reminds me of...
Bradley Reunited with Abdul Gaddy in Mickey D's Game
Great article about their chemistry from ESPN. The move to Findlay Prep was certainly a good move for Avery Bradley on and off the court. It gave him the chance to get his grades in order, and it helped him on the court by getting him on the ball as more of a lead or combo guard which is the...
Crystal Ballin' Texas Hoops: Part I - A Look at the Players
Part I will be a look at the newcomers for next season and holdovers from last year's squad (Part II is here). I was going to do this all in one article, but I have too much to say about next year and I don't want the thing to get unruly. Part II focuses on scouting the Horns and what we can...
Quick Scouting Report on Texas Basketball Newcomers
I know it's football, football, football the week of ou, but with the recent commit from Jordan Hamilton and his other brother Jordan Hamilton , I thought it would be a good time to get an unbiased, straight talk assessment. So naturally, I called up my AAU coaching friend to get an unwashed...
Talked to my AAU Coach Friend
First, the guy hates Texas. Cannot stand us. So take this with a grain off (sic) salt. Says J'Covan Brown has been an abortion from the start. Good player that could literally be bipolar. As in he's just as likely to pants an opposing team member at the foul line on national TV as he is to hit...
NBA/NCAA trying to cut out AAU
It looks that way. As a college basketball fan I'm all for it. I'd rather have two semi-image conscious entities make shady backroom deals.
Marquette and Texas High School Basketball
So Buzz Williams is the next in line to try his hand at rekindling Al McGuire's magic. Well, what does that and Texas High School basketball have to do with the price of beer in Milwaukee. Evidently a bunch. Williams was an assistant to Billy Clyde at TAMU before his stints as the head man at...
