Izaiah Brockington commits

Don’t think so. I did find an old article about Izaiah’s dad, Antoine:
Shooting star rises at Coppin Basketball: Antoine Brockington continues to recover from bad breaks and heartaches and has his eye on the NBA.
There’s a new sports hero in town and no one cares that he still calls Philadelphia home. Coppin State’s Antoine Brockington has played his way into the hearts of Baltimoreans with a re…

Psst. They can after they sign—including somewhere else.
Have you ever paid attention to how close-knit the Flint basketball community is? That’s...pretty obviously a no.
+500 dad joke points
Pro Tip- if you’re gonna use the 30 year old “Not!” thing you might not want to be calling out “Boomer Prudes”.
Yeah, just like how we can’t get a recruit from Minnesota.
The day I need any tip from you will be a cold day in Hell. Targeting the audience.
I'm surprised the entire Midwest hasn't barred its gates against TJ now. Clearly he has become coaching anathema.

Water under the bridge now. I thought the word we we were getting from TJ's office at the the time was that the recruit, Nunn was indeed contacted by JRob. That was good enough for me. It kind of blew up from there.
Great point that our coaching staff or Coach couldn't talk about it at the time, can't talk about recruits.
If we/ they can talk about it now, well OK, but best let sleeping dogs lie, I suppose. I'm sure the coaching staff has contacted the Flint connections and given them their reasons.
Maybe it will be a good question for Randy Pete during the next press conference? I wouldn't put it past him.

How doesn’t it? We “can’t recruit Minnesota because of how close knit their AAU is”.
Literally the same thing you’re claiming about Flint.
Nice try.
Sure they can, but what is to be gained by picking at a scab that long after it all went down? Any coach that would do that would just come across looking like a fool, an a**h*** or possibly even both. Either it needs to be addressed right away - which they can't - or not at all. I thought that part was obvious enough that it didn't need to be spelled out.
Pro tip: it's more difficult than you'd think to find a good Wayne's World 'not!' gif/meme.
As if!
Conditt and Foster will be the primary post players. If foul trouble happens you can plug in Jones if you need more size. Or play Kunc at the 5 if you are facing a 5 out team.
I really like that practices could be really challenging for players at all levels. Jared and Chris touched on this in their Brockington reaction podcast.
Hunter - get the Kane and Morris treatment and have Kalscheur and Brockington get into him
Jaz, Enaruna, Hinson and Johnson can all battle against each other
Jone sand Conditt can battle or be pulled out to the wing by Foster and work on their perimiter P&R defense
Lots of flexibility with the 2021/22 roster. It's now on the coaches to put them in the correct spots and up to the players to put in the time

Also Foster can guard Jaz on the wing. Something he struggled with the little bit he played last season.
I'm not so sure he is light years ahead of Fred in recruiting. Fred had zero head coaching experience so TJ wins there. But remember transfers like Royce White and Chris Allen had to sit out a year. And unless I am mistaken outside of Grill, none of TJ's transfers do. That gives TJ a distinct advantage in getting something turned around quicker, but does not necessarily mean he is recruiting better "out of the gate".
Any news on Brockington or just more arguing how we'll never get a player from Michigan again because we turned down 1 average player?
