Summertime

BEVERLY HILLS (MI) -- George Gershwin once wrote “Summertime and the living is easy.” Not if you are a college basketball coach or a HS hoops recruit, it ain’t!

-- Nice piece from The Detroit News on how July is now crunch-time in college hoops recruiting, featuring past and present Flyer recruiting target Sherron Dorsey-Walker:

-- Tamron Manning, the best player in the Class of 2012 from Kentucky is getting more and more recruiting attention and is still waiting for an offer from UD:

-- You can add the name of SF Delvon Rencher of Homewood Flossmoor HS in Chicago to Archie’s 2012 recruiting targets:

-- Two new names from the Class of 2014, according to Tweets from Alex Kline of The Recruits Scoop at the HG JamFest:

2014 forward Victor Dorsey of King James (OH) lists Cincinnati, Dayton, Akron, Purdue, Northwestern, Ohio State & Penn State.

Northwestern, Dayton, West Virginia, Rutgers, Ohio & DePaul on hand to watch Chris McCullough '14 of Team Scan (NY).


-- Among other things, Andy Katz of ESPN.com says that the NCAA is thinking of eliminating July hoops recruiting altogether, as they did with the April live period:

If this keeps up, college coaches will only be able to recruit on March 25th of every year and that’s it.

-- 10 recruiting story lines for July from Dave Telep at ESPN.com:

-- Ken Pomeroy unveils “Schedulematic” which pits geographically close schools together for early season matchups:

Much to the chagrin of The DDN, “Schedulematic” suggests that UD play Murray State and Indiana State and not Wright State.

-- Speaking of Kenny boy, here is an interview he did with the guys at RushtheCourt.com:

-- How many of SI’s “Twitter 100” are you following?

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201...&sct=hp_t13_a2

-- Talk about a young man who has his priorities in order:

http://articles.nydailynews.com/2011...e-cash-runners

-- I will never know who the Bleacher Report’s “50 Worst Teams to Win a Championship” are because I flat out refuse to click thru a 50 page slide show:

-- For all of you coaches out there, I give you Coaching U Live, ‘the ultimate in basketball content’:

http://coachingulive.com/

-- “The Unsweet Tweet of the Week” comes to us from Coach Shane Howard:

“Big Congrats to Custom College Recruiting LLC's Lee Bailey on his commitment today to play basketball at Chaminade Univ.”

Yup, as previously pointed out in the UD Pride MB, it’s that Lee Bailey, the two-sport star from Detroit Country Day HS who had previously committed to UD for football and was going to walk-on for hoops.

-- “The Sweet Tweet of the Week” is courtesy of TJ Kelly of IPS.com and concerns a UD recruiting target who is headed to WV for prep school:

“Ray Lee plans on watching Deliverance before leaving for Huntington Prep.”

That’s it “From the Swamp.”

Well at least then Archie will be able to help Patch deliver the Puce Candy Canes on Christmas II to all the good recruits!
