Mentioned with UK, UCLA, and Indiana

[klempsux]

This has to be a typo right? Nice to see us up there with the big boys. The article is a good read even if only one line mentions us.

You start getting jealous of your friends who will get to root for him when he goes to Indiana or South Carolina or Kentucky or UCLA. I suppose that sort of reaction is why the gold team exists, why big-time college coaches still make the drive up to Mouth of Wilson to visit Coach Smith.

Oak Hill is a NBA player factory.

Sindarius Thornwell who just signed with us goes to Oak Hill and is Tang's teammate. It'd be nice to be able to recruit some more players out of there.

It looks like they're playing Ridge View in a couple days here in Columbia if anyone wants to see Thornwell or this Tang guy.

I like the way that sounds but I'm sure he meant to say North Carolina...I think they point was to name traditional basketball powers

They meant South Carolina; Sindarius Thornwell plays at Oak Hill and he will be in Columbia next season. In a few years, Frank will be taking us to Sweet Sixteens and then Elite Eights and then Final Fours.

I think I read somewhere that all of Oak Hill's starters are committed to D1 schools... think about that, it's insane.

thanks for the info.

looked it up Oak Hill will play today @ 8:30 pm and tomorrow @ 6:00 pm both games played @ Ridgeview.

Anyone know if it would be hard to get in didn't know if the gym would be sold out or anything ?

Oak Hill plays Keenan tonight (at Ridgeview) at 8:30pm . Keenan also has a USC commitment in 2014 point guard Marcus Stroman . The Oak Hill games tonight and tomorrow are expected to be sellouts .

I'd imagine anyone going to one of those games will see a lot of scouts and recruiters.

I'm sure Frank Martin or someone from his staff will be there because of Thornwell and Stroman.

My college basketball team played Oak Hill Academy as a warm-up game before our season opener in the early 80s . . . not sure that we played another college team the rest of that year as good as Oak Hill was.

i think its funny when a player is the same race as some star athlete they always reference that person. white receivers are always the next Wes Welker, asian basketball players..the next Jeremy Lin. ah well, thats a whole different topic.

He is actually from Lancaster, SC and just transferred there for his senior year to play against better competition. When he did that a lot of people were worried that would steer him away from Carolina...happy it didn't!

Simeon in Chicago has 9 players with d1 offers, including the #2 guy for this cycle. And they lost to de soto from texas the other day, thanks to Duke commit Matt Jones.
