@franfraschilla: Spent weekend with some of DFW's best HS/AAU hoops coaches. New coaches at TCU and SMU need to take page out of Johnny Jones playbook!

I'm thinking that they are all really high on Jones and Jones is close with them and the players

Pat Swilling Jr. is going to be on scholarship. He's one of the 5.

Huh? Are you unsure of JJ's ability to recruit in LA?

Seems that way. He is talking on Twitter like he is already committed:

You posted this on the rant: "Where are all the in state players JJ is delivering with the 5 schollies?"

You're either a moron or a troll. Either way, we would ask you to refrain to such talk on this board until the guy is at least formally announced as our coach.

Seems like LSU has offered and he's either accepted or will soon. Don't really see Morgan, Hammink, Coleman and Swilling all in same class, but who knows?

That would be 4 good players, but similar skill sets. All four basically wing players.

Perhaps Swilling is a move to make new Orleans inroads. I do know he is very popular down there.

I was thinking that. I think with 13 you can afford to do that.

The guy that I'm becoming the biggest fan of is Shane Hammink. I like his skillset a lot.

Yeah I'll be pretty happy. Can't say that I'll be on that level but I'm not expecting Gathers at all. But I do think his not signing last week because of "spring break" was a bullshite excuse. However, it does seem like Gathers' coach is obsessed with Drew and his priorities are in line with Baylor, not LSU.

If he lived in the US, he's be a high four star player from the videos I've seen. It's one of the reasons I was so optimistic about next year even under Trent.

Handles the ball extremely well. Excellent size. He's a slasher. Reminds me of Ginobli.

His outside shot seems to need work, but I love his skill set and athleticism.

So is he a lock or what? People keep acting like it but nothing has come to fruition. Do signing requirements not apply to European players?

If this is the class it would give CJJ so many option the next few classes.

1) If Hickey Xfer's we have his replacement in Hammink a 6'5 PG
2) if JOB goes PRO after his SO season, we would have between 3 or 4 Scholarship for 2013
3) In 2014 Coach would have 5 Scholarship to offer because next year's team would have 5 Jr on it.

these next few days will be fun

Love the comparison of Hammink and ginobli, my only question on Hammink is his level of competition but hus film looks great. Hopefully he ends up a tiger.
