Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

A number of players we are interested have received offers the past few weeks, while our only (public) offer to the class of 2021 is Chris Ford. I'm curious if we are waiting to see more of the players in the hopes there will be summer basketball (I am skeptical), if we aren't enamored with the play...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Interview with Angelo Brizzi. No specific Davidson discussion, but mentions he is looking for a school with a great basketball culture, academics and a place where a guard can thrive. In other words, Davidson. Also, you apparently don't want to see him across the way on the ping pong table. https:/...

If Villanova is on him this early he could be out of reach, but looks like he's a name on our board.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Interesting read on recruiting during a pandemic: https://247sports.com/Article/college-football-recruiting-coronavirus-challenge-creative-communication-145668388/ It's hard to imagine this being important right now, especially when we don't know if we will have a season at all, but it's nice to get...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Question I think I know the answer to, but: does a player sitting out a redshirt year via transfer take up a roster spot? I think they do but I am not 100% sure. If things work out and everyone including Luke returns, we will have no spots available (Verbal Commits says we have 1, but they still lis...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Prefacing this by saying I know none of this matters in the scheme of things, just something I've been thinking about to try and distract myself: I wonder how this impacts recruiting. Assuming the next academic year/season starts on time (a big if) the spring summer recruiting periods are going to b...

Here's a 5-minute video of Sam Mennenga working out if you're into that sort of thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1duokS54AUI

Davidson 1, LaSalle 0
The highlight video posted by the college on FB shows 2 dunks, one by Luka and one by Nelson.
That was a mistake by the highlight guy, since Luka was fouled and the dunk didn’t go in

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Interview with Chris Ford's high school coach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OyX8Ur5F7w

Does not talk too much about the players or their recruitment so I don't suggest watching. BUT, he does compare Chris Ford to two players: Draymond Green and... De'Mon Brooks :shock: 8-)

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

I'd love to land Chris Ford. For sure. https://twitter.com/Coach_Rick57/status/1021739424000999424?s=20 Seems like a guy who would bring a new dimension while still having a high basketball IQ. Interesting trying to find information on him this year, since North Meck has a huge 2020 prospect on the...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

2021 Chris Ford from North Meck was at the game last night per Instagram. We offered him previously, known to be tough and athletic player.

Couldn’t tell what the crowd was like on TV but great game to have him in the house.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

All star game from Australia that Sam Mennenga plays a big role in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvqhN6vWe5s They play guys in 5 minute spurts and there's a running clock so its pretty easy to skip through. Sam doesn't shoot well in this game, but he clearly has a ton of athleticism and a very, v...

More video of Sam: https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/sport/basketball/promising-kiwi-basketball-player-sam-mennenga-gets-scholarship-attend-steph-curry-s-university Mentions that he plans to come to school next semester, but won't play until next season. Seems smart, and with a semester and offseason ...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Hopefully having our 2020 class in great shape will give our staff plenty of time to stop by North Meck and watch Chris Ford in their spare time.

On an unrelated note, would love for the team to do player and team features similar to what the football team does on the YouTube channel.
