From a recent scouring report
TJ is a top 100 talent and showed that at Big Shots SE Top 100 Paul Biancardi in earning 2019 MVP honors and top overall prospect in camp. At 6’8 with length & guard like skills, Bickerstaff has the high major frame and skill set that has attracted offers...

This could be a good one.

His grandfather is long-time NBA coach Bernie Bickerstaff. His dad, J.B. Bickerstaff, is the interim head coach for the Memphis Grizzlies.

What other offers does he have?

@TaiYoungHoops: It's easy to see why @New_J23 is getting some of the attention he's getting after seeing him today at practice. He cirrently has offers from Georgia st. Memphis, MTSU UAB, Old dominion, FGCU & North Fl. among others. Interest from Temple, Clemson, Butler, Xavier. Major upside https://twitter.com/TaiYoungHoops/status...16/photo/1

Hey DaBig, Coach, ODUdad and others who follow HS basketball around here. Would this young man be a good fit for ODU? Leading area scorer and great student. What's the word on him. https://www.google.com/amp/pilotonline.c...3.amp.html

Looks like were a little late to the game as College of Charleston, Lafayette, Holy Cross and Cornell have all offered. Navy is interested too it seems.

We should be able to beat all of them with a late offer unless he wants Ivy League

Do we need a 6-5 forward?

Kenan Sarvan is now 2019 after reclass...

He is averaging 15 pts 8 rebs for Bishop Sullivan. No idea if we have offered, but Jefferson brought him to Bishop Sullivan.

To me, wouldn't be normal for a college basketball assistant to bring a kid to the States from Europe (after having watched him play over there presumably) and there be no understanding that we were going to offer. He wouldn't have to go to ODU, but we wouldn't have brought him here if we didn't think he could play D-1 basketball. I'm just guessing -- and he is 6-9.

Valdas the Younger?

I haven't seen this kid play, but you always take talent and then figure the pieces out later.

I haven’t seen this kid play this year, but when I’ve seen him previously, he’s closer to 6-3 than 6-5, and limited range. Not really similar in body type, but similar in game to what Snowden was in high school.

By all accounts, though, he’s an absolutely terrific young man.

Thanks a million Coach. I always root for the local guys and saw where he was just a junior.

Oh, no, Coach...you said the "S" word!
