Big time recruiting in B Ball!

Quote:Keenan Ellis, a 6-11 forward from Indianapolis, Ind., and Aaron Johnson, a 5-7 point guard from Chicago, Ill., are the newest members of the Blazers basketball program.

Get him some southern cooking and we'll have him at 240 crashing the boards in no time.

unfreakin' believable.
who would have thought, last year when XCMA left that just a few months later we would be doing better with recruiting than we ever did with XCMA.
Mike Davis is my hero.

Does this finish our recruiting for this year (giving Mukubu and Gibbs scholarships)?

Well, there's still 1 more scholarship since Curtis Nickson didn't qualify. I'm not sure anyone knows if it's being held for him if he can get his stuff in order or if MD's going to use it for another player.

I've still seen him around Bartow, not dressed out or practicing, but he's been around there.

Is Lavorius Weathers still supposed to come?

The tallest recruit UAB has landed in years...


And the shortest recruit UAB has landed in years...


From the description, Aaron Johnson immediately reminded me of Nate Robinson. Anyone know if Aaron can dunk, too? ;-)

Aaron's got more muscles than Keenan... who weighs more?

Keenan Ellis was once rated as high as the #12 prospect in the nation. His stock fell a bit over the last several months.... probably partly because of injury and partly because he hasnt bulked up any really.

I bet it has more to do with the influx of talent to his team. O.J. Mayo and Billy Walker, the #1 & #2 players in this senior class.
