Nike Peach Jam over; 2023, 2024, 2025 targets recruiting followup

Edwards is supposed to announce towards the end of Peach Jam. Wagner rumored to possibly announce. Bradshaw is postponing. UK in the lead for all three, but I don't think we'll land Edwards.

Got it. Ok, sounds about the same as what it was. Thought maybe I had missed something new.
 
I think you’re incorrect about Edwards and so do most of the crystal ballers
I hope I'm wrong, but you should know as much as anyone that the crystal ball stuff doesn't mean much, especially when we still have at least a week to go before a commitment. They had us as the overwhelming favorites for Bagley for months, and the same for guys like Barrett, Shittu, Bridges, Fultz, McDaniels, etc.

We shall see. Hope I'm wrong, but we haven't landed a small forward in Edward's elite category since MKG. It would be a nice change of pace and show the country that UK recruiting is back at a truly elite level.

Yeah but the difference is we weren’t the favorite for those guys close to commitment time . You could be right because I don’t count anything until it’s official but by all reports it seems like Kentucky is in a good spot with him .

Fingers and toes crossed we get him. Won’t be long before we find out.
 
The shoes the players are getting are pretty clean. I'd love to get my hands on a warmup jacket. I doubt they make them in a normal person's large. Lol. My nephews ebyl shirts and jacket were massive. XL my butt. Hahahahaha

17U gets going at 3:30 est and includes a great matchup later today with Robert Dillingham and crew going against Jeremy Fears.

At the 16U level, some tight games early with Team Final beating NY Rens by 3 in a poor shooting game for top guys in the game:

Robert Wright of Team Final had 10 pts, 10 rebs and 3 assists on 3-17 FG, 1-3 3pt, 3-4 FT

Dylan Harper had 10 pts, 6 Rebs, and 2 assists on 3-15 FG, 0-6 3pt, 4-4 FT.

Its completely different when a commitment is imminent like it is with Edwards though (with the excpetion of Mcdaniels). All the guys you mentioned we might have led in the crystal ball for them but that was in the early stages of the recruitment and not the home stretch where they about to commit. 95% of the time when you see a flurry of picks come in for a guy a couple of weeks before his announced commitment date, then that is where he goes.
 
Boogie Fland and PSA Cardinals 16U team won their opening game over LivOn Fleur DeLis

Fland had 16 pts, 4 Rebs, 1 Assist on 6-11 FG, 1-5 3pt, 3-3 FT

Yves Missi had 7 pts, 9 rebs, 2 assists and 2 blocked shots on 2-8 FG, 3-5 FT

Robert Miller a '24 Texan played for LA team and had 7 pts, 11 Rebs, 2 assists and 4 blocked shots on 3-6 FG 1-2 FT
 
What does the resident experts know about possible commitments? We need some more good news.
I haven’t seen or heard anything but I haven’t been on the boards much. I would like to think we lead for all 3. I don’t really like Bradshaw postponing but I think he will be a Cat. UK supposedly feels good about Wagner. Who knows? Lol.

I might have to check that out. I wanna see Dilly go to work. How is the quality on these streams?

Wagner one is tough as hell to read lol. I think the most likely outcome is we go 3/3 but still dont feel great about that either.
 
A combo of highly rated commitments will bring back a lot of fans. Winning will bring back most all of them, but we will still have the Cal Haters.

The best way to win big is to get big time players. Players win games. Coaches just need to land them/let them win the games. Seems simple but often isn't. lol
