The free parts:

quote:

Jarrell Martin (Baton Rouge, La./Madison Prep) is a top 20 player, actually he’s No. 12 in the ESPN 100. Most guys that high profile are big news generators. Martin isn’t like most guys. The 6-foot-7 power forward, who happens to be one of the best rebounders in the country, hasn’t taken an official visit. Only Alabama, LSU and Oklahoma State have either been to his home to do a visit or have plans to visit. Bama, LSU, Oklahoma State, St. John’s, UCLA, Texas A&M and Louisville are on his list of offers. None of them have a campus visit date confirmed for Martin.

Martin can’t take an official visit until he takes a standardized test, be it the SAT or ACT, and that won’t happen until Oct. 27. He hasn’t seen any campuses, so it’s proper to refer to his recruitment as being in its infancy stages. Martin won’t decide until next spring.

Not a basketball junkie growing up and with only a season and change of high school hoops under his belt, Martin would tell you he has a lot to cram into the next few months. This young man is a standout prospect, we know that. We also know that come the springtime, he’ll be coveted and still relatively fresh to the process.


And we know a large portion of this is very false, as Martin has been LSU dozens of times.

They are referring to official visits. You can't take an official until you have at least taken the ACT or SAT.

Fellow basketball recruiting fans:

I will no longer be contributing to this site. I have come to an agreement with another site to coordinate their LSU basketball recruiting coverage. I will not reveal which site here. I love Tigerdroppings and I have a lot of respect for Chicken and what he has built here. I would not use his site to promote another site. I've enjoyed my time here. Good luck to you all.

Good luck, Bubba.
You provided us with basketball news that other sites didn't have. You had the Hammink story a month before the mainstream media. The Reveille beat the big boys on that one because they saw, as you did, the news value. You understand foreign players and some JC players don't get the recognition and stars of high school recruits. Sadly, we have to rely on football writers to interpret basketball news.

How can we find you? I want to subscribe to your service.
