******Official Boog BBall 'Crootin Thread*******

Gonna be pretty sad going from thinking we’re signing 3 more 5* and instead landing a 2* Forward, a grad transfer from a small school, and maybe Cardwell..

College basketball recruiting is just too damn dirty for any of the basketball gods to allow us to have that with Bruce....

Green is the only one I really thought we have chance out of between him and Brown, but still a lot of time/smoke out there regarding Kuminga.

We’ve done well this class with basically two 5 stars in Rife and Thor combined with two total gym rat type players who will contribute greatly for 3-4 years in Powell and Moore. Really need to add a combo guard, though.

We good regardless, we have the best coach in the game.

I see you're leaving out JT Thor who no one really expected to land and was a top 10 dude in the 2021 class that reclassified.
I’m talking about with our final spots. Thor was a huge get, and softened the blow of losing JG and GB. And our class as it stands is fantastic. But we still have holes that need to be filled, and it’s slightly disappointing that all the big fish have signed elsewhere and we’re gonna be scrounging around to find a plug and play at the 2 and a center who can help Stretch.

I just don’t see the need for a 2* wing.. we have holes at C and guard. And only 2 spots left unless we tell Jamal to pound sand. And honestly, we’re so thin at guard I don’t know if we can afford to tell him too.

Flanny, Cambridge, Javon Franklin and even Powell could play the 3.

If Bruce were to give him a scholarship, it means he doesn't view him as a 2 star

Supposedly Frank Anselem just reopened everything for his recruitment.

Have always thought he was an L$U or bammer $$$ type recruit, but who knows now....

The good news is we have Bruce Pearl as our coach.

I don't worry about recruiting. If Bruce takes a kid, I don't care what his ranking is

I assume this is what Alabama football fans feel like with recruiting, where they just don't worry

This came out yesterday. LSU took the commitment from Gray, which took his spot.

I don't know anything about the kid. But he had a final 3 of Memphis and UGA (with LSU) so if he is opening back up, I guess he didn't really like his Memphis and UGA

bama was in his top 3 but I don’t think they have a spot for him.
 
Hearing a lot about Cam Bryant coming aboard to us. 6’7 dude with above average handles and a good outside shot that played on AOT with Rife and the gang over the years.

Big, high energy guy that blocks shots and rebounds extremely well also. I like him...

Lol highly doubt we pursued him that hard. Same as the others. We are on their initial lists but are never a finalist.
Seems like it. No way these children are all considering the likes of Ark, UGA, OM, whoever the fug else, etc over the boogs. Could always go back and pluck them later on don’t think transfers sign a LOI or anything. Getting antsy in pantsy for some more HYGs though.
 
Just a reminder that Greg Brown does announce tomorrow. Not getting my hopes up, but still gonna be on the lookout

Obviously not gonna be a boog but surprised word hasn’t come out he’s going to the G League. No G League predictions from the crootin experts can’t believe he’d turn that down to go to Texas.

This ish is quiet fam

still not getting my hopes up
 
And he's headed to Texas. Glad we landed Thor

I think the numbers his Dad claimed for G League must’ve been inflated. Yesterday I saw 125 and he’s saying 300 today. Unless GB sees himself as a 2-4 year college player, it doesn’t make sense to turn that down.
