scout just updated their 2011 ratings

the newly-committed Jahii Carson is now the #7 PG in that class and #46 overall

rivals has him as the #9 PG and the 35th overall player

(and Herb didn't have to hire his high school coach to get him )

Sean Miller is still out-recruiting him, with the #8 SG and #12 PF for 2011.

8/24/2010 2:16:09 PM

things would certainly change if Herb landed Deandre Daniels, one of Jahii Carson's best friends, now that he decommitted from Texas and reclassified to the 2011 class

and if he lands Amir Garrett

8/24/2010 3:40:08 PM

Miller is still in it for Quinn Cook and Josiah Turner if we're playing that "what if" game. Herb doesn't really have any playing time to sell to wings after taking like 30 of them in last year's class.

What if: UNC, Kentucky, Duke, NC State, Maryland, Georgetown, and Central Piedmont Community College ALL passed on Cook??? So you're saying there's a chance?

8/24/2010 3:59:51 PM

not sure where you're going with that

8/24/2010 4:05:03 PM

The odds of Miller landing Cook are about as good as... me landing Amber Heard.

Honestly man, this holier than thou nonsense is getting old, I read the same sites you do so you can drop the recruiting guru act. He lists UofA in every recruiting article I've seen about him whether it's on Rivals, Scout, Zagsblog, etc. If you think UofA is behind State, Maryland or Georgetown then you obviously don't know what the fuck you are talking about. I don't even need to go into the fact that Cook is no more of a longshot for UofA than Deandre Daniels or Amir Garrett are for ASU if you know half as much about recruiting as you claim to.

8/25/2010 5:32:29 PM

why not just ask him where he's going to commit to? then we can put this whole issue to rest.

8/25/2010 6:14:37 PM

Not on facebook.

^A lot of stuff will play out before Cook goes anywhere.

BigEgo: hey, Mr. Cook, you going to 'Zona, sir?

QuinnCook: shut the fuck up, cracka ass cracka!

8/25/2010 10:22:52 PM

Actually it was closer to
BigEgo: yo dizzle, they been sayin you ball like a mu fuckin stud mang. werrr you gona go minizzle????
Quinn Cook: Hello to you good sir. How are you doing on this glorious day? While studying spacetime physics this morning, I discovered that Arizona isn't very high on my list of preferred universities I would like to study at using a basketball scholarship.

Rihards Kuksiks is officially back after much speculation that he'd stay in Latvia and play pro ball, forgoing his senior year

that makes Sendek's* roster:

PG - McMillan - SR
SG - Abbott** - SR
F - Kuksiks - SR
F - Lockett*** - SO
C - Pateev - SO

* Pac-10 Coach of the Year
** First Team All-Pac-10
*** Pac-10 All-Freshman Selection

Two things from that.

1) Hodge is playing in China this year apparently; and

2) Fuck Herb for trolling me in his latest tweet about the Jets.

i saw sendek's last year at state. starting a bunch of seniors doesn't mean anything.

9/8/2010 5:23:44 PM

they're gonna lose to 12th place wake forest twice to end the season.

9/8/2010 5:32:39 PM

UofA picked up a commitment from Josiah Turner (5 star PG) on Sunday, I know Sendek is quaking in his boots over in Tempe.

9/20/2010 2:50:06 AM

Jahii and Josiah are a wash

9/20/2010 7:43:28 AM

maybe so, but who cancels out Nick and Sidiki Johnson?

9/20/2010 3:30:59 PM

Herb's 2011 class is going to suck

but his 2010 class more than makes up for it


btw, has Fatass Kyle Caudill signed anywhere yet? you can land two of Herb's decommits

9/20/2010 6:24:06 PM

I guess in your mind a handful of 2 and 3 star tweeners "makes up for it"

Pac-10 basketball

they were pretty relevant in the mid 90s

9/20/2010 10:48:02 PM

Dear PAC-10,

Sorry we have kept you from being relevant over the past few years. Your freshmen and sophomores were just way too good!

Sincerely,

The NBA Draft

9/20/2010 10:54:22 PM

I think its funny that anyone cares about this sorry team. ASU is the defintion of FAIL

And we got josiah sooooooooooo......eat a dick herb!

9/20/2010 10:54:33 PM

Herb already had Turner

didn't feel like dealing with his baggage or his $$$ requirements

cut him loose

9/20/2010 10:56:18 PM

LOL yeah, because Herb is the model of integrity.

9/20/2010 10:59:23 PM

I hate it when freshmen like Demarcus Cousins are lottery picks, and an ACC team still wins the national title

9/20/2010 10:59:37 PM

Herb dumped Turner and not the other way around, I'm sure that's the way it went down.

9/20/2010 11:02:48 PM

Herb is too busy keeping his DUIs a secret to worry about that kid.

9/20/2010 11:04:08 PM

I actually think he's a closet pothead rather than a drunk.

9/20/2010 11:07:41 PM

Yeah because when I think ASU I think of quality. Oh right. 98% acceptance rate...I forgot.
