TB was giddy telling me about Blake on Friday. Sounds like redshirt giddiness to me

So going back and pausing the tape and based on that Twitter pic, it looks like Uncle
And Aunt accompanied Kon on the visit and are seated beside him at the end of the row. Where are mom and dad? Tells me theyll be another visit of some sort at some point t?

Ralph to Kon: “Son, if I was a recruit today, I would be a 5 star, and 5 stars never commit to Tony and instead go to Duke”

Im assuming no offer for Bliss yet cause Tony hasn’t seen him in person yet (and after the COVID season he definitely wants to do that LOL).

Highlights from his 39 pt game Friday night to win his league’s championship. Shows more of his shooting and bucket getting persona.

@Foresthoo I think was his mom as well. The dad or uncle looked pretty young. They were kind of alarmed when Fresh congratulated him on commiting to UVa when we met

That Christian Bliss kid was in town and came to our LRA event with coach O to watch the Jay Willy show. Seemed like a really cool kid.

Did you offer him in front of Coach O or when Coach O turned his back?

Not recruiting but the clip I paused was at the 4;55 mark when BVP pulled an old man crafty move on Whitehead for the and 1. Slowly meanders up like he’s setting a screen for Beeks and hard ass cuts to the basket. Left Whitehead stuck at the FT line. Beautiful.

I’m pretty sure it was just Kon’s parents with him. The uncle is just saying Kon got to meet Ralph not himself.

Terrible awareness by me on that one

Can we marvel at the fact that Tony brought back the top 6 guys from an NIT team along with a mid-major transfer and 4 4 star recruits and made it a top 10 team. I think we were all going to be happy as a solid tournament team that’s maybe within the top 25. Makes me excited about the future recruiting prospects.

Has Kon committed yet?

I’m fully invested in us getting Kon now. Takes me a while to reach that level but once I hear about a connection - no matter how deep - to Tony I just assume that kid is committing
