Did Gant sign today? I thought I saw that he did but not sure. Only 1 tweet has said so so far. His twitter page has 0 post. Can't go there for info.

Wright says he is signing on Friday. I think JWIII and Gant will make a stud pair of forwards for several years.

Two very athletic kids that play above the rim and can contribute as freshman. Both have high ceilings. I wonder how Wright will stack up compared to Booker who is more physically mature, has more of a polished game and shooting range. Wright looks quicker and may be Bookers equal or better by their junior years. Booker more of a shooter.

I don't think there's the slightest chance Booker will be playing basketball as a college junior.

You may be right. We will see.

Josh Gray Juco PG scored 61 points last night. 26-34 from the field. Lightning quick at 6'1".

Booker looks like a 4 year player to me. I haven't seen anyone talking about him and the NBA.

Perfect place to post. I'm going to catch a couple of his games this year.

Gotta show that kid love early and often every time he's on campus. He's going to be hugely sought after and it's just starting for him.

Me too. Probably catch a game against DeSmet. Got a buddy with a kid down at SLUH and will probably catch at least one of those. And really want to watch him play his dad's team.

I haven't checked out a Tiger recruit since Kelly Thames. Think I will check out young Mr Tatum.

Just watched freshman juco highlights of Josh Gary. Very impressive hands, quickness, anticipation and ball handling. Sees the floor well and can score. This season he has gone crazy as a scorer. Would love to add his talents to this Tiger squad. WOW.
