That Stallworth kid looks like a Baller… An athletic Freshman PG that can penetrate and dish as well as score. Yuba JC was ranked #3 in California and beat San Diego CC, the eventual State Champions before he was injured. I found some of his USNavy Prep and senior year film before he went to Yuba. He would be a perfect fit for UH.

Good luck and best wishes to the 4 players who are not coming back. I’m sure all good guys, too. Totally understandable the high cost for walk-ons to live hear without a scholarship and the lack of playing time. That’s how it goes and it’s a tough situation. With 4 scholarships open, maybe Ganot will consider giving one to Stepteau if they cannot sign a high level recruit. One is reserved for Avea, one should target a PG, a shooter, and hopefully a big man who can especially play defense.

You can’t blame the walk ons for leaving. They are paying out of state tuition with a small chance of cracking the rotation.

Just rea Brian’s updates on visits this weekend and next week. Wing and a PG from Finland. Both look good. I will just wait to see what happens. This coaching staff seems to be on top of the recruiting. I am amazed at how they find guys. Go Bows!

A millennial such as Blair may not fully grasp the significance of a Patrick Ewing, especially somebody outside of the continental United States.

You can tell him that Ewing was a great player, but if he didn’t grow up watching Ewing, it’s all abstract.

When Reggie Theus comes to town, I know I should be in awe of him, but I never really saw him play.

That English-less team won at Utah State(nationally ranked at the time) in the first round of the NIT. A team with English the grad student would have given Coach Wallace back-to-back-to-back NCAA appearances, and who knows where the trajectory of the program would have headed towards.

I blame ESPN magazine for doing a story on him.

Too much fame.

Do you remember Ahmet Gueye?

I think if Gueye was taller, he could have played for a Big East school such as Georgetown.

Anyway, if “Juggy” can play, I hope he chooses Hawaii.

Blair visiting Georgetown this weekend and his retweets are from Georgetown fan wanting him badly (they need a pg). Big program and they obviously could care less about a nickname. Hope he at least gives UH a look. Janks, English, Martin, Webster-Chan show past success for Canadians at Hawaii.

I also checked Jaaron Stallworth’s Twitter page.

I get the impression that Hawaii is his only D1 offer.

Chico State and Texas A & M International are also interested in him.

I checked Jahvon Blair’s Twitter page.

He’s re-tweeting a lot of Georgetown posts.

He calls himself “Juggy”.

I kind of worry about players with self-styled nicknames.

So is there any word on Kendall Smith? If UH could get him, that would be awesome as he is a legitimate scoring threat. I think he would work well in Ganot’s system.
