He was pretty under-recruited so I imagine Colorado was one of his best offers out of HS.

Correct

Which is crazy to me when I went back and watched him vs. Harvard-Westlake

Johnson was best player on floor, which included Duke signee and Joe Sterling

 

[Tres Comas]

Yeah wild considering his obvious skill level and his father’s profession

Sounds like Sean Miller wants to add another Neutral Site game in San Antonio to the schedule vs a P4 opponent.

Love the S16 banner!

Barnes had us in rare air. Five Sweet 16's in seven years. 

Programs that could make the claim in the same timespan.....Duke, Kansas, Pittsburg and Texas.

USA U18 team 

Bo Ogden and Reese Alston don’t make Final Cut.

on the Ogden side, I’m quietly happy as these guys don’t take/get much time to rest body. Was a great experience for him, and now he gets 10’ish days to rest prior to Texas workouts starting June 8

First surprise to me

[Gerry Hamilton]

Arkansas SG Maleek Thomas staying in the draft. 

Impactful for the SEC race in 2026-27 IMO 

[Gerry Hamilton]

Like where Andy Katz is headed with his rankings

Clarify … players report June 1 … have medical and such 

first workout June 8 

Is the June 8 date the 1st day of Summer workouts for the SEC?

Texas first day 

Not sure on SEC, but assume it’s the same

@Gerry Hamiltonnot that it matters for Texas, but can basketball players enter the portal still if their coach leaves?
