Under the proposal 400k 'Te would still be allowed, but no more "Director of Basketball Operations" positions to family.

I wonder where Manning and Chalmers would have gone?

Kenny Boynton
Marcus Denmon

boynton's a bad guess.  because he listed us as his leader when he was in vegas (after the camps).

Denmon sucks, but the staff has had multiple pump n runners at their camps.

I'm pretty clueless on this one.

what a sexy little tidbit for meek to leave hanging out in the open.


the player couldn't have been that highly rated, or the coach would presumably have been brought it in.  also from somewhere where the staff doesn't appear to have good relationships.  who has meek talked to lately?

[pissclams]

The proposal specifically targets so-called package deals and the practice of paying AAU coaches to speak at summer camps.

wow, that's a shot sent directly towards flyover country

kenny kadji? ray shipman?  dago pena?  both are Florida Rams, thought Frank and Ramker were buds?

[sys]

georgia stars, florida rams, that juco from texas that went to arkansas then left, that guard that went to utexas in spring, freddie riley, sean irishnameblackguy recruit?

could also be any of the ton of dudes with an early mention and then are never heard from again before committing elsewhere.  but doesn't seem like meek is so thorough that he'd normally talk to the people of any of those types.

yeah, i listed the rams too, but honestly, it doesn't feel right.  ramker is pretty big time.

[catzacker]

there's an update for the '07 elite campe (Kadji, Shipman, Pena, Denmon, Travis Releford, and T. Boyd attended) where Ramker's quote makes it sound like he's there watching the camp. 

this one is an awesome little tease by the meek.

Witherspoon.

Maybe Georgia Stars?  Witherspoon and Tony woods?  

dammit, yosh beat me.  by only 20 minutes.

opened, then ate dinner, then came back, then posted.  I usually ignore "a new reply has been posted".

Demarcus Cousins.....book it.

Well hell there goes half of Bill Self's recruiting shtick right there.

If they start cracking down on bumping and having boosters employ family members Self and ku might be completely f_cked.

1.  More programs will probably be looking for their 400K 'Te.  It will be the best way to do it. 
2. Capel has a legit beef, lots of guys who legitimately want to coach could be left out if they don't allow any outsiders to help work camps.  This will probably be the toughest one to get through.
