Trey McKenney … Was with Streets for a while …
Now we’re gonna have to go against him …
didn't play very well for the national team Morez and Fears were on. he's not chopped liver, but he ain't all that. he's not gonna physically dominate nearly as much on this level
Think he could by year 2 or 3 …
But knowing his circle … He’ll be gone to the league after a year and he won’t be ready …

a shorter, less explosive THT
@Indy Illini Fan since we're at it, any idea on one guy - miikka murrenin? was very impressed with his stuff and people were talking about illinois being a candidate at peach jam. he's teammate with jaylan mitchell... think that should lead to an in?

I have zero connections in recruiting…except with this one. That’s really where he wanted to go all along but the Juwan uncertainty opened up his recruitment. He liked IL but we were a long shot. Georgetown was really the team to beat.Trey McKenney … Was with Streets for a while …
Now we’re gonna have to go against him …
Too early to tell where Miikka ends up … He’s taken quite a few OVs already but we aren’t going to get a visit … Think he’s been or is going to Arkansas, Utah, Michigan and Duke … Duke & Arkansas both think they’re out front …
Mitchell is the #1 priority regardless of class … Brad wants that thing locked down yesterday … They’re all in on that one …

That's right. That's right. Attaboy, Brad!
With the transfer portal I am not getting excited by any high school player until they show up. I think Morez will be special
Mitchell played his 6 & 7th grade years at Olney before moving to Evansville

looks like he can play

point taken, but this is a highlight clip and sample size, sample size, sample size. the issue with Lee isn't that he can't shoot, it's that he's inconsistent and possibly takes some ill advised shots. the latter is pretty easily correctable.
he looks good and it's clear why we took him. his pedigree is nearly as good as it gets (doesn't work out always, but that's a positive attribute)
Oh if only this were true.

if taking ill advised shots is directly correlated to playing time, it usually is (easily correctable). also, I'm pretty confident in staff's ability to instruct players on what's a good shot and what isn't
