Miami has a 36 year old head coach with 0 HC stints and a program thatās coming off of a terrible season while their main NIL booster has a struggling company and potentially legal issuesā¦doesnāt seem to stop them from landing talent right now.
I know our time will come but damn Iām jealous. I guess the time between Dukeās ACC championship and VCUās NCAA exit was all the time needed to build the staff and get their guys early.
Its all local florida kids coming home
Damn the struggle that Florida kids coming home leads to a great team, Virginia kids coming home would have this guy as the best player right now based on On3 rankings: Alex Chaikin Career Stats - NCAAM - ESPN
Jai Lucas made his rep as a recruiter. Will need to prove he can coach.
The Lucas family is like royalty in grassroots basketball because of his dadās camps and involvement in everything. Jai will get guys easily, thatās why he was hired.
Nait George to Syracuseā¦
Unc getting boomed.
Lucas left Duke after the regular season, so heās been in his seat for nearly 30 days.
Quick rebound
Iām sure coaches are looking at Jarin and hoping he can be the next TKR. Heās super young - doesnāt turn 20 until October.
The question I would have for Jarin - is he willing to do the work to be that guy? For a guy that thought he was a 1-and-done thatās where I questionā¦
Iād take him. Good shooter, lots of craftiness and good shot fakes in the lane - solid mobility.
That being said - it looks like he actually canāt jump more than a few inches. Iām sure Iām exaggerating but the lack of a vertical really stands out. Itās like all of his decisions come from being tethered to the floor.
I am not going to pretend to know if this dude is reliable or not - skeptic with the Saunders to Duke prediction - but dead periods call for speculation and wellā¦here you go:
Reed Bailey, Luke Mamgboye, & KJ Lewis all predicted to UVA
Yeah, gets into the lane at will but then cannot jump at all. But crafty. Odd looking shot, but super effective. 95% on spot ups at Synergy? Yikes, thatās good
Saunders final 4 and sweet 16 experience. Before injury was 40% from 3 and his best games against ncaa tournament teams we played. Hed have value is that Mason Gillis role off the bench.
Duke needs veteran role players to put around the boozers. Notre dame is involved and clemson was last time
Also that person must have connections to know Griff Aldrich all over Kj Lewis and only behind uva paywalls Reed Bailey and UVA mentioned
Hasnāt even made the tapes thread. 
Tapes thread is a ball knowerā¦
Yeah ā one of the main reasons I posted was there were a good number that weāre predicted that came true today.
Should KJ Lewis be in the tapes thread?
yeah thatās impressiveā¦forget whether the predictions turn out right, just to keep track to that extent.
