what happens though if our coaches (esp Underwood

) forget which players they're "ignoring" and which players they're ignoring?

also, our beat writers are in on it, obviously, and also must ignore our recruits or face being ignored by frank and Athletic Dept.

Recruits are in on it as well. They "ignore" us, and of course we "ignore" them back. Can you imagine how exciting is to be a young mand being completely "ignored" by Frank Martin and his staff?

Unless of course we are actually ignoring them.

Antwan Space, SF, Urban DFW Elite- When you've got his size (near 6-foot-8) and you can shoot the ball like the Desoto (Texas) High wing does, things can pick up in a hurry. After a nice day on Tuesday, he was even better while we watched on Wednesday. He's got a turnaround jumper he will shoot over either shoulder, can create his shot and also plays with some athleticism. Big 12 programs like Texas, Texas A&M, Baylor, Missouri and Kansas State look poised to join Colorado, Houston and Gonzaga in making moves for him.

I recommend a spreadsheet to keep track of who we are ignoring, to what extent, if the recruit is in on it, and who in the media is in on it.

Really the only way to keep this super secrety ignoring from just getting plain messy.

Obviously 'te400K has to be the manager/inventor of this spreadsheet.

Sweet. Our elite Desoto High connections from the past can't hurt here either.

Yeah, the DW connection will no doubt have a strong pull here, when is his jersey going up in the rafters anyway?

michigancat · « **Reply #1056 on:** July 08, 2010, 12:44:35 PM »

Next month will be the 6th anniversary of him leaving us. I was all like, WTF, Dez?

Might be too small at SF, although he has a long wingspan.

Space update(the player, not the solar system and beyond), no mention of the KSU Cats.

"I'm hearing from Gonzaga and I have offers from Florida International, Colorado and Houston," said Space. "Missouri and Texas A&M, I've heard from them too."

The Franchize All-Starz are clearly one of the most talented teams on the circuit, [db]D'Angelo Harrison[/db] is one prospect that garners a lot of attention. The scoring guard is proving to be an absolute sniper from the outside, and he keeps racking up huge numbers in July.

Franchize played two games on Saturday, one against the Mac Irvin Fire and the other against Meanstreets. Both Chicago based teams were ready for Harrison and what he could do, but neither could come even close to stopping him.

Harrison has a natural ability to make shots. His coach gives him a green light to shoot when he feels necessary, and Harrison takes advantage of that by getting bucket after bucket. What Harrison does best is knock in shots from deep, and that is what he did in a big way on Saturday.

Most impressively Harrison makes shots without much help from his teammates. His pull-up three pointer off the dribble can be money, but also in catch and shoot situations he is just as lethal. While shooting the ball from deep is what he does best, Harrison also makes sure to attack the rim using his quickness.

While Harrison doesn't have the best handle for a guard, it is still above average, and his natural quickness allows him to beat his man and get into the lane. Once in the lane he knows how to creatively finish over taller players by using a floater or simply going all the way to the rim and scoring with a strong move.

In both games on Saturday, Harrison was well over 30 points, and each time Franchize really looked to him during the key moments of the game.

more harrison praise. odd that franchize is in indiana instead of at gaso. baylor youth isn't a real high profile tournament. more chicago regional.

don't know if kstate has anyone there or not, martin is/was in tx, as tweeted above. if anyone, it would logically be hill.

If twitter would have been around at that time, would JW, TA, and DA been mentioned when they were at an event? Hell, would have they been even recognized at an event? Or even invited?

I really want D'Angelo Harrison. If he keeps having stud aau games he could make the jump to a five star.
