Also thinks Cam Thomas can handle the ball.
I see him in the mold of Ronnie Henderson and Marcus Thornton. Big guard who can handle the ball decently, but will be a long range scorer over smaller defenders.

Admittedly, I have only seen Cam Thomas play in one game that was televised last year, but I will add some observations. The following were described by the announcers and apparent to me about Thomas' game.
He is a prolific 3 level scorer. He can take the ball on the fast break and dribble it in the half court. He can take and hit a good proportion of both catch and shoot as well as off the bounce threes (in high level high school games). He can dribble drive the ball toward the goal both left and right. When he goes left off the bounce, it often leads to a deadly pull up mid range jumper. When he goes right, it often leads to made lay ups, fouls shots or both. (Wade loves this foul creation ability if you go back to interviews about Thomas.)
Everyone should be excited to see Thomas play next year. If he lives up to his potential, he could be a one and done. His height is the only reason he isn't an even higher ranked recruit.

Yep, height is only reason he's not a Top 10 guy, it may also be the 1 reason we get him for more than 1 year. Not a ton of of NBA teams looking for 6'2, 6'3 shooting guards.

Not surprising but made the Top 6 for Cisse, along with Memphis, Kentucky, Georgetown, Georgia and Florida State
Still think it's just an LSU/Memphis battle

Cisse has been unable to take any official visits beyond the trip that he took to Florida State earlier this winter. He has also visited the campuses at Kentucky and Memphis in recent months, though each have come in the unofficial variety. The hope is that if he does reclassify, that he would complete official visits to his remaining finalists before committing.

there is way more to that story with LSU, Alabama, and Georgia falling off. Honestly from just a few clips I watched, I didn't feel like Anselem was some absolute must-have guy. there's no chance in hell he's a take for Kentucky

Has Kirby Smart been notified that Tom Crean is pilfering from his "recruiting" budget?
Foster would be one guy that Greg Goldin doesn't have to worry about that's for sure

I like the Baylor fan on twitter talking shite about LSU and Kansas, as if Scott fricking Drew isn't a total sleezebag 

Posted on 5/1/20 at 9:29 pm to tigerbait2010
For real it’s like when UK or AU fans talk shite. Our coach hasn’t ever even received a NOA, can’t say the same for yalls.

it's the year 2020. How are there hundreds of thousands (probably millions) of college basketball fans who have followed their teams for 20+ years and still don't understand how the sport works?
Posted on 5/2/20 at 7:31 am to tigerbait2010
They understand perfectly how it really works. It’s about deeply ingrained character flaws and in some cases personality disorders that manifest themselves through these self righteous pricks all too eager to claim their programs NEVER bend nor break the rules.
Those people are the same type as the ones who mindlessly join in on the lynch mob mentality regarding Coach Wade. Quick to assume, no proof needed bc they presume to KNOW what his words meant and by God he’s a cheater and that is just wrong bc my coach would never do that.
Think about the entitlement and narcissism evident in those beliefs. Seriously. They know what they know intellectually and yet they’ve convinced themselves of an alternate reality to support their own life narrative bc they’re incapable of processing the info in a healthy way.
They’re mentally weak, immature, and poorly adjusted. I’d be willing to bet on that in a heartbeat.
Forgive the rant. I know TL;DR
Other fans suck. Geaux Tigers

Scott Drew is known for being one of the sleaziest in the last 25 years

The latest mock draft had Watford going mid 2nd round. 46th i think. Williams and Days were mentioned "among others" as possible free agent signings. Smart wasn't mentioned at all. Watford's parents have been pushing him to go pro but hes not ready. He needs to get bigger and stronger. And work on his D. With a good sophomore season he could be a first round pick next year.

Not sure that’s true. I think how dad said if he’s not 1st round he wouldn’t go
