Beaumont is also a 50-minute drive from Lake Charles, where Will Wade has been the past few years. Thereās probably as much of a connection between the two of them as there is between Aldrich and Arceneaux.

Weāll see where he ends up but my guess is he wants to start (otherwise why leave Houston?). I honestly donāt know if we could promise him a starting spot if Thomas is eligible and at UVa. From his perspective, I kinda get it.

yeah I think thatās UVAās issue with Arceneaux. Probably wants to be a āguardā and with roster planning that gives him a good chance to start.

Sometimes it feels like a non-insignificant part of recruiting involves convincingly lying to recruits about what position they play. Everyone always wants to play one position smaller than they really are.

The Purdue strategy with Trey Kaufman-Renn. Just tell him he can be a wing and in three years youāll have an All-American at the 4.

Hmmm weird. Donāt really believe he has any nba upside. He was a little outmatched in the final four.
Maybe Iām wrong tho? His stats say otherwise.
Random thought: whatās up with Mackenzie Mgbakoās transfer recruitment? Wouldāve figured heād be one that every team would be after.
I kinda think that one will be blue bloods and SEC schools. Will see what I can find outā¦

Seems like Conerway is imminent to IU. Another portal tapes guy off the list.

This is what ESPN says about him (has him at #29 on their big board):
Condon carved out a real role as a freshman, but he emerged as arguably Floridaās most important player as a sophomore, a significant conduit in its continuity ball-screen offense with his ability to be a playmaker out of dribble handoffs, allowing them to invert the offense and put multiple big men on the floor. While he didnāt always post huge scoring numbers, his strong feel for the game was evident with the way he passes and plugs gaps defensively off the ball, while his nonstop intensity running the floor and crashing the offensive glass set the tone for teammates.
That does sound like one flavor of modern big man that the NBA tends to like.
Sam Vecenie from the Athletic has him more early 2nd round, FWIW.

Pretty legit incoming transfer class for them. I know ones the coaches son but Devries, Reed Bailey (I know you think he sucks), Wilkerson, and Conerway is a pretty good haul.
