HOF Invitational - Weekend

couple notes from that

2014 PF Jaylen Johnson - Johnson left the building Friday night with an escalating fever and completely dehydrated. He returned for the weekend games with a milk jug filled with water, and seemed to bounce back well. He showed that he was capable of hitting mid-range jumpers, although he is best at getting to the basket when he catches the ball in the short corner or the high post. He is explosive and can rebound with the best of them. Louisville, Maryland, Michigan State and more have offered.

Almost one hundred college coaches made their way to Springfield this weekend, but the two DI teams that made their presence known most were Iowa State and Oregon. There was a coach there from both of those teams on all three days. For the Cyclones, the Mayor himself, Fred Hoiberg, was in attendance. For the Ducks, assistant coach Tony Stubblefield scouted on Friday and Saturday, while head coach Dana Altman showed up Sunday.... Other notable teams in attendance at one point or another this weekend include Virginia, Louisville, Michigan State, Boston College, Iowa, Florida State and St. John's.

MAYOR! MAYOR! MAYOR!

Really shows that Fred WANTS him and NEEDS him bad.

I don't think anyone was expecting Moore at this point. What do you mean RV is a longshot? It is going to be a challenge to land Vaughn but we have as good a shot as anybody.

Top targets have to be Vaughn, JJ, Travis, Cunningham, Macura.. About in that order I'd think

While the 'need' for post players is probably greater (in us fan's eyes), I feel like Macura is higher than 5th on that list in the Mayor's eyes.

 

[DurangoCy]

IIRC, there was a recent tweet about Bonzie's probably visits and we weren't mentioned. Until a kid has been to our campus or scheduled a visit, I don't put much stock into their interest.

Missed that, thanks.
Poor Man's Georges anyway... smile:

I agree I think Macura is going to be a stud. Any of those 5 players I would take in a heartbeat they are all big time players.

:notworthy: Fred! :notworthy:

 

[jahfg]

Realistically we're looking at Cunningham, Jaylen Johnson, JP Macura and Tillman with Johnson being our only real post recruit.

Reid Travis is reportedly visiting in the fall. Shouldn't that register on acgclone's interest meter?

 

[Cydkar]

I don't because I think we can afford a "miss" at his position this year. Not because of his talent, to be clear.

I agree that we can miss on both Vaughn and Macura. I don't believe Fred thinks that. He loves guys that don't miss.

Tillman is 6"10 with his fro. These are actually some impressive highlights. And is it me or does he look a little bit like Brackins at 3:50 ?

I saw a picture of him with short hair and he looks almost exactly like Craig.

Yes

Does anyone else think that Tillman looks like Brackins?

Tillman is a post

Justin Tillman - Yahoo! Sports

He sees himself as a SF or Shooting Guard in college. It is at the end of the interview. He also said he wants to make his decision before his senior year starts. It appears to be a recent interview from this summer, but before we offered.

Nice Offers

 

[gocubs2118]

Really blew up this summer, he'd be a nice get. Him and Jaylen Johnson play on the same AAU team as well, which could be a plus.

Kuzma set to trim list at month’s end | City of Basketball Love

Very intriguing.

 

[LLCoolCY]

Intriguing indeed, first I had seen of Kuzma associated with ISU, though I had seen him receive a number of offers recently.
I cam across some video from the July period... Seems have an outside shot and comfortable handling the ball. the article also mentions ISU was showing interest, it would make since if the staff was watching Jaylen Johnson this kid would catch their eye.
