We were recruiting this guy...untill he got hit by a train.

Apparently T. Mitchell was close to him as well... from his facebook.

sad, but about as sad as you might feel about someone who drank drain-o and expected to be ok. i mean, the train can only hit you if yer on the tracks when its coming.

Update on Blair from Adidas Invitational:

"Stephon Blair: Potential, that is the big time word with Blair. He has a grown man's body right now, and the 2012 big man has the skills to develop. He hit a 17 foot jumper, showed a good spin move on the block, and rebounds like a mad man. Still Blair is out there without a great idea of how to play the game from the post position, and his touch is very hit or miss, but the bottom line is with his physique and raw abilities he is going to get a lot of looks. He isn't there yet, but the tools are clearly in the tool box for the Florida Rams post."

For the second day in a row, the DC Assault's Torian Graham was putting on a dunking exhibition. The 2012 wing is much more than a leaper, though, and is a guy capable of putting up flurries of points off the dribble and via pull-up jumpers. Kansas State assistant Dalonte Hill was following his every move and early word is that the Wildcats could be the team to beat.

lots of other good stuff in the new (free) bossi update. how many rough ridin' 3s does the staff want?

'Te actually trying to earn his keep?? At least the mentions have picked up some what.

Underdog Wildcat · « **Reply #233 on:** July 08, 2010, 11:39:43 AM »

The note on Graham might be the most encouraging nugget I've seen regarding our recruiting since .... Nino committed??? Now, can we close with that fracker?

Regarding the newfound obsession with wings, I don't get it either, I just hope our staff remembers, SOMEBODY has to handle the ball/facilitate offense/create off the dribble. And that Harrison nugget, JFC, I don't give a crap about fit, sign that fracker up.

Get Torian Graham

Underdog Wildcat · « **Reply #238 on:** July 08, 2010, 12:55:25 PM »

In case you guys missed this nugget on Graham(the link is in the Stephon Blair post from yesterday), Behanan is 5*, ranked 24th nationally Chane Behanan:

"Torian Graham: While it was good day overall for Behanan, he will forever know that he is on a poster with Graham's name on it. Graham absolutely threw one down in Behanan's face, and the play actually fouled the OBC big man out of the game. Graham did more than just dunk though. He used his athleticism to create in the mid-range and also knocked down a few outside jumpers. He needs to work on his strength, but the athleticism makes him special, and boy does Behanan now know about it."

Gopowercat.com dude says we got a "BB 2012 verbal".

If he's/she's not talking about baseball, someone figure it out and tell us all who it is.

EDIT: Says he/she can't reveal at this time.

q for purplesage74: what's the point of giving a verbal if you can't verbalize it? how did the kid give us the verbal, sign language? smoke signals?

His profile lists his home town as Dighton, KS.

Out in the middle of nowhere in wKS. Most likely Cauley(sp) given this.
