This seemed to unfold very fast, no?


Switching teams in the summer can be dangerous. Wait too long to make a decision, and you may not get a home you want. Sometimes you end up at Oklahoma Wesleyan.

The guy had already done a recruiting tour and been courted by BCS schools. If he found what he was looking for here... No sense dragging it out.

And when he had opened the fourth suit, I heard the voice of the fourth assistant coach say, Come and see.

 

And I looked, and behold a pale suit: and his name that wore it was Benford, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the court, to kill with substitution, and with haplessness, and with dishonor, and with the beasts of the not-actually-coaching staff.

Sounds like an excellent player, but not better than Jones. I wonder were he will fit, I really don't see Jones at the 2. In summary, if he is a replacement for Jones; I think NT's talent level went down.

15 ppg, 10 Assts. last season. From Miami, Fl (played in Ft. Lauderdale) before moving to to Houston. His goal was to lead the SEC in assist his freshman year. Also had a 25 pts 15 assist game while playing a game in New York or Atlanta. Seems to be a better player than the 6-9 Juco guy. (I'd pass on him, btw, from the video I saw and being a 6th man on his Juco team) Not sure I like 5-9/5-10 guards on the college level. Very tiny kid.

Maybe Tasty can get Benford on the GMG podcast to get an update on this kid and who he plans to run off. (Of course we need to tell Benford that JJ appeared weekly on the podcast)

If I remember correctly, tasty made sure that was in benfords contract before giving it to RV to present for Tony's signature. I think there's even a nice incentive fee for the gmg podcast.

I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the name "Jordan Williams" show up on that OWU roster... then I kept looking and saw you were referencing Nolan Denis.

Grades? How's this kid on the academic front? I always worry a tad when I see that they come from some "basketball academy school" thing. Anyone know the skinny on the academic side of the house? Looks like a great sign on the BB side of the house, but as we have seen with Jones and Williams...and, yes, TMitch...one must take care of both sides of the house to actually play.

Tell me the kid is a academic powerhouse as well......

Nice commit for the first one out of the box Coach!

For fun, I would be interested in looking back at all our coaching first signees.


I'm just taking a guess, but I think JJ first signing was Jermaine Green.

Maybe this signing really just mean bad news for Trey Norris? Don't get me wrong, I like Trey. He puts in his work and has heart, just thinking of possibilities.

Am I high or did I read somewhere earlier that Trey was actually aiding Hardwick's recruitment?

Also, after reading his Twitter it seems that we will actually be playing Mississippi State next year. Was this known already?

Should be an exciting game.

Pretty sure that's what I heard as well. So hopefully this guy isn't designed to replace Norris on the roster, however assuming Jones is back, I could potentially see it causing his playing time to decrease.
