What I got so far…

 

[Gerry Hamilton]

A tremendous set of basketball eyes with a coaching background watched Texas Saturday workout ... said Texas is a top 10 team in his eyes. Said the young guys have improved a lot - Marcus Spears Jr. had a DAY.

This person was was very impressed with the program, Sean Miller and the possibilities of this years team.

@Gerry Hamilton It's a crap ranking. No way Michigan State, Arizona and Tennessee should be ranked higher than Texas. You could rank UConn above them. 

Been waiting a couple of days for this Gerry. Did you hear Sark mention that he showed the team the Kobe "Job's not finished" video Monday morning? Notice there ain't no LeBron or Curry quotes.

Agree on Arizona 

Probably agree on Tennessee too … based on Rick Barnes coaching an offensive minded team

Beckham Black working out with Sean Miller and staff in attendance this morning at Southeastern Prep in Orlando 

[harveycmd]

@Gerry Hamilton I think Beckham is the same age now as Kobe when he worked out for Jerry West at the Inglewood YMCA in June 1996. 

[harveycmd]

@Gerry Hamilton Got more Ger. Gemini AI search: Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant are universally recognized as the two greatest 1v1 basketball players in history, with each quoted as saying the other is only who could possibly beat him 1v1. 

Because 1v1 basketball relies purely on isolated scoring, defensive stopping, and individual willpower, these two guards mastered the exact skills needed to dominate without teammates.

That’s how you make a kid feel like a priority. Three days after he’s on campus show up to a shoot around with 4 staff members.

What do you think about this @Gerry Hamilton? I know you were citing this guy a lot for transfer portal rankings. Apparently,t his ranking is based on ALL teams getting ALL their players to play, no matter eligibility.

Not gerry but this is computer base so im not sure how to feel. I dont think gonzaga is 5 at all and dont think UH is better than us this season. Would like to know how they come with the metrics

[Nathan B]

Well, a lot of those teams will not be getting the players he projects them to get.
