Looked he’s the only big time prospect in Mississippi and Louisiana for the next few years. Is lsu going after him hard? I remember in elementary school a teacher and the disciplinarian Mr Funches had a son who played in the nba. Wondered if that’s his grand or great grand son. Kid looks legit.

Verbal commits says we have. Doubt we'll have a shot. Brandon Bass Jr is in that class and he's pretty highly rated but he goes to school in Florida.

Carlos Funchess played at ULM, went to NCAA tournament- He & Anthony “Greyhound” Jones were awesome together, played Duke in tournament Duke was up like 47-42 at half, wore down ULM and won by like 29. Jones had 27pts POTG, C Latener had 22 11 4blks POTG. They won the whole tournament Duke had Hurley, Hill, Lang unbelievable team. Both Funches and Jones finished 1,2 in college dunk contest. Now I don’t know if they’re kin but Funches came from a Mississippi Jr college maybe Copiah. Have no idea if linked but he was 6’4.5” G/F and could jump out of gym, 46” vertical

His dad is 6’9” and played at murrah in Jackson and then signed with UCONN around 1994. I think he stayed all 4 years but only lightly contributed but he was a good high school player.

I was ball boy one year when those guys were there. Road bus with team from Monroe to Indianapolis and got destroyed by Purdue. Cool experience. The dude could sky.

I played against his dad in high school. Life comes at you fast.

He must have been a teammate of Ronnie Henderson at Murrah HS.
Come to think of it, I do seem to remember that there was a guy on that team who went to UConn.
Henderson was ANOTHER top flight basketball recruit that a lot of posters here think LSU can't get. That's 100% false.
