*welp*

Kentucky and UCLA now jumping in on KL. UCLA doesn't worry me due to distance. UK otoh is a team to worry about since UK is 1 of his dream teams since his middle school days.

Seems like that is always the case when the state produces a 5-star.

I'm hoping my son (friends/classmates with KL since kindergarten) can continue to talk sense into KL and keep him Bama bound. lol

A better product on the floor and Sexton going high in draft will hopefully help the cause. Need all we can get

Myreon Jones is visiting Wofford. He was the 5-Star that no big schools even looked at

Myreon Jones isn't a SEC guard. At a generous listing of 6'3/6'4, he doesn't look long enough to be a 5* SG but he isn't even close to being a SEC ready PG. He is a dismal shooter and isn't an elite finisher around the rim either

As for production, By "5*" standards, he was a huge disappointment at the Nike EYBL circuit + his year at Lincoln Academy has been anything but dominant for a 5* G.

I said it earlier when he got brought up, both here + AU boards, Myreon Jones is a classic 247 Jerry bump for exposure. He had one great tournament that Jerry Meyer happened to be at, he hasn't done anything since

247 has him at #100 now, which is still generous

I don't doubt he has the tools to develop into a top midmajor player, but he isn't even close to being a surefire P5 caliber recruit

I'm hoping we can get Watford and Lewis, feel good abt them both due to Kira's family having Bama ties and herb Jones is really close with the Watfords from what I understand

It helps that Herbert Jones ( he doesn't like to be called Herb) is having a good season and the way Bama uses him... Love it.

Someone said it the other night but Herbet will probably end up being a lot people's favorite player by the time he leaves.

I agree about the way he's playing , and the fact he's contributing is something I'm sure the Watford family is noticing.

Lewis and Watford were at the game today...The atmosphere must've blown them away.

Nice game for him to visit for. He's a very tall guard with a good handle. He needs to get stronger, and he kind of shoots from his chest.

He takes a set shot? I haven’t seen a set shooter in years. That’s real old school.

Brandon Boston. He's a 2020 recruit from Atlanta we just offered.

His shot isn't as strange looking as I remember thinking when Auburn and several other SEC teams offered. Here's a short video LINK
