bball recruiting
Rocket men very busy lately offering 6 2017 recruits in the past few days. Of note is Alex O'Connell a very skinny 3 star kid out of georgia. Already has a dozen major offers so interesting that UT would go after him fairly late in the recruiting process. Also, the Rockets offered 4 star Canadian guard Nickeil-Anderson-Walker. He is ranked as high as 35th in his class and has offers from places like Maryland and USC. Again, no insight into why the Rockets are making a push, but noticed that he is able to reclassify to the 2016 class if he wants, maybe a connection to our new Canadian juco recruit...

RE: bball recruiting
A scholarship offer is out to Indiana player SF Jalen Adaway. I believe he is no relation to our own Taylor Adway. (Note the spelling difference). The announcers would have a great time if both of them were on the floor at the same time.

read that wrong, darn blurry eyes. Was going to be a BIG class.
Hey, if there's interest in our program, even remotely for whatever reason, aim high and offer. Same for the locals that are known to be highly recruited, it acknowledges their accomplishment. No rule against it, right?

Perhaps the heretofore unknown love child of Jalen Sanford and Taylor Adway with spelling changes to protect the guilty? I can see it getting confusing for Coach: Jaelen!" "Yea, Coach?" "Not you, -Adaway!" "Yeah, Coach?" "No, not you, Jalen!" "Yeah, Coach?" Basketball version of Who's on first?
