About "Spri."
Surprise playerCombination forward Tony Mitchell (Grand Prairie, Texas/ Living Faith Christian) has a big-time body and is as strong and physical as any player I watched compete Monday. He is effective from about 12 feet and in offensively. He has good ballhandling skills at 6-foot-7 and can beat most forwards to the rim where he can finish through contact. He attacked the glass on both ends of the floor -- especially offensively. He rebounded over and around opponents for tipins and started fast breaks with his defensive rebounds. Mitchell, a Kansas State commit, was quick to the ball and finished drop-off passes above the rim with ease. His jump shot needs immediate attention to take his game to the next level. He shoots flat footed and has a very low release, but overall Mitchell competed and was an attention getter with his effort, energy and physical play on both ends of the floor. He also has the size and athletic ability to defend both forward positions.
Tony Mitchell now #68 in the nation and a 4 star on scout.http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=8&c=1&nid=4421854
The best 4 on 4 team today, including a sub, consisted of Andre Stringer (5'9 PG), Mike Gilchrist (6'6 WG), Tony Mitchell (6'7 F), Tobias Harris (6'8 F), Jereme Richmond (6'7 WF).
But now I'm just

What do you want to bet he doesn't actually have that Kentucky offer.
Frank on fireClass of 2010 prospect Frank Williams (Raytown, Mo.) is a 6 foot 5 wing who came to the Skills Academy with the reputation as a jump shooter, and he didn't disappoint this afternoon. Williams is a confident shooter with a quick trigger. He is rail thin and must add strength in order to be more effective off the dribble and on the glass. However, knocking down open shots is his specialty. He is athletic and can finish above the rim with ease. On Tuesday, he ran the outside lane spotting up, feed the post and relocated and spaced to the open area on the side to get his shots. His release reminded me of a young Andrew Toney at times. Williams is fun to watch get it going from the outside. If the defender is not close to him on the catch or approaches with his hands down, Williams has the ability to make deep jumpers look like layups.
frank is listed as the #24 SG on Scout, 3 spots ahead of Royce Woolridge...
Williams has the ability to make deep jumpers look like layups.
QuoteWilliams has the ability to make deep jumpers look like layups. he's like a skinny, black chris babb!
Frank Williams has offers from Central Michigan, Murray State, Oral Roberts and Wichita State. Kansas State, Missouri, Marquette, Minnesota, Arkansas and Michigan State will watch him closely. …
Frank Williams, SG: Been a big end of June/early July for this guy. Like his length and he’s got a release that will give him a chance. His smooth stroke is going to make someone fall hard for him as a shooting specialist. Not bad for a guy whose expectations were to just get a scholarship. “Actually, they projected me as low-major but I didn’t let that affect me,” Williams said. “I just kept working hard.”
Tony Mitchell made a couple strong plays to note, including a strong hook shot that forced an and-1 attempt. He muscled up in the paint a good bit and really showed his creating abilities on a couple nice passes and shots.
Coaches Break — front row is Mark Fox, Matta (J-Boals), ‘Ol Roy, Drew, B-Gregory, John Groce and the Brothers Miller (Sean and Arch). Down the other end is Tom Crean, Josh Pastner. Mike Montgomery and Beilein in the house too. Howland, Huggs and Frank Martin, Dwayne Stephens (MSU asst) Rick Stansbury.
Vaughn Allen ’10, prep school: St. Peter’s, Marist, and Kansas StateOffers: NoneFavorite: Kansas StateDream School: “I’d like to go to Kansas if it’s possible.”Note- Allen, a graduate of Mt. Vernon (NY) who told me he has "opened back up my recruiting process," said he is definitely going to a prep school, and is considering Notre Dame Prep (MA) and Ocean Shore (NJ).
Tony Mitchell- The long and bouncy forward has certainly proved that he belongs in this setting. His game is still rough around the edges, but his talent is evident. His physique, athleticism and motor only will carry him along way, but he also possesses a skill set ready to blossom. Mitchell will likely land as a four-star prospect in the post summer Rivals150.

Thomas took his place in the stands of Philadelphia University’s Gallagher Center watching Coleman and others, including Pembroke Pines (FL) forward Khyle Marshall compete on the court.
Frank Williams (Raytown, Mo.) holds offers from Central Michigan, Murray State, Oral Roberts and Wichita State. He said he thought to have had Arkansas, Kansas State, Marquette, Michigan State, Minnesota and Missouri taking looks at him.
Tony Mitchell (Miami, Fla./Center of Life Academy) was a bright surprise and is likely to blow up. He was slowed some by an injured back during the spring but his explosiveness around the hoop and ability to step out was eye-opening. He never really went through the recruiting process having made an early verbal to Kansas State but recently opened back up. Arizona State was the only school he knew of that would be out to watch him but that is all changing after his week of play.
Khyle Marshall (Davie, Fla./Flanagan) said he’s planning visit to Auburn and Butler but that he has 17 offers total and will need to trim his list after the month before setting any more.
boy did we f*ck up the tony mitchell thing.
I still think he'll be at KSU. Didn't his mom decommit him?
