Louisville just dropped the BAG for Jayden Quaintance. While Memphis has the money to match, I don’t think Memphis is dumb enough to match. Kentucky and Arkansas both dropped out because they refused to pay JQ that much. He will go to the highest bidder.

Hearing bidding is around $1.5 - 2 million for Jayden Quaintance. Getting Memphis involved gives JQ’s camp leverage to up the bidding for Arkansas to match. Smart move.

I see a lot of people clowning KD Johnson for committing to George Mason. However it’s the perfect move. Go down a level, be the guy, and grow more as a player. Props to him for making a smart decision.

Until he commits to another school it’s not a miss. Also you realize every single person that reports “scoops” hasn’t been perfect. I report what I hear from credible people. If you want you can unfollow.

Well it was indeed for Brandon Garrison. Still expecting Brea to end up a Wildcat.

Steve Pikiell is using the portal better than almost any other coach in college basketball. Getting guys that FIT around his team. Love it. Not chasing the rankings.
