2018 & Beyond recruiting targets

I think we will see another roster spot open up (a big man), and all you have to do is look at the stats and see who played the fewest minutes. Every year we have lost players early, and they were always the guys at the low end of the list of minutes played. I am confident we will land at least one more big man.
 
My initial post said I hope we aren??™t pursuing him because a starter is gonna transfer. To be perfectly transparent, I was referring to Darell Brown. The theory is that if Penny Hardaway takes the not-yet-open Memphis job, there could be a strong urge for DB to go home to play for a Memphis basketball legend who was the name sake of DB??™s AAU team. (Idk if Penny coached or sponsored the team but I assume he was involved with it)

I don??™t want to see him leave. Brangers would fill a big need, imo our second biggest hole after replacing the production in the front court from Donte??™s graduation. If no one transfers a commitment from Brangers would block our ability to address need number one. Taking every factor into consideration it comes back to me saying I hope DB doesn??™t transfer and that our interest in Brangers isn??™t a sign DB is considering it.

I acknowledge what you are saying DC. I just wanted to share my thoughts and theories on this forum that I??™ve always seen as a place for BU fans to share thoughts and theories. I can honestly say that I don??™t want any of the players currently on the team to transfer unlike most of the years past. I like them and reapect the ones who came to a bottom feeder program and stuck around to help build it back into a potential contender. I want LVB and Barker to graduate as Braves.
 
Penny Hardaway did coach the Team Penny AAU team. This season he is in his first year as head coach at Memphis East HS, so he is not as involved but he is still involved with the AAU team. And he has supposedly already said he would separate himself from the AAU program, and stop supporting it if he were to get a college coaching job.
Penny Hardaway is also friends with Darrell Brown's family and is Darrell's Godfather. But despite their closeness to Hardaway, I do not think DB will bolt to go play at Memphis if Penny gets the job. But who knows.

University of Illinois dips into the midmajor market again
and lands a commitment from Samba Kane - a fairly obscure Florida prep schooler, a skinny, raw 6-10 Senegalese player...
he was a 2019 recruit but reclassified and will be available this fall, 2018.
They already have an almost identical kid, Greg Eboigbodin, who averaged 2.2 ppg/2.4 rpg...
but the pickings are getting thin at the Power-Conference-level for what's left of Class of 2018.

todays game is being streamed live right NOW
12 min left in the game South Plains leads 58-51
https://portal.stretchinternet.com/regionv/portal.htm?eventId=434524&streamType=video

Brangers is #23 in dark uniform
these play by play guys are a gas.....kind of like having two Bob Uecker

Brangers has 27 points on 9-12 from 3-pt range
 
omg- Brangers is en fuego - just hit from 30 feet
now 10-13 from the arc 30 pts (plus 4 assists)...South Plains leads 71-64 -- 7:05 to go
if our coaches are there observing, they are seeing a display
 
South Plains 76 - McLennan 72 with 3:11 to go
BU recruit Jordan Brangers is 10-17 overall and 10-15 from 3-pt, he has 30 pts, 2 reb, 4 asst
South Plains' 6-10 big man Isaiah Maurice is 11-14 and has 25 pts/5 reb
 
2020 recruit (current sophomore) Devon House plays for Sterling Newman HS...
He averages 19 ppg/9 rpg as a sophomore - and one of our coaching staff was at the Civic Center observing him today - so possibly he's a recruiting target.
 
something just doesn't seem right
Croft is a great shooter & scorer but he has no DI offers...not even low DI...
usually that hints at academics....
One article when he signed to go juco noted that's what he had to do academically
