Cali player offers have gotta all be Murray, right?

Like this dude's attitude

This is the 2nd Cali kid we offered today… Who on the staff has connections out there? Does the Murray family name help us out in LA?

Murray has the connect. No idea what success he's had pulling from that area but his MO is expanding the recruiting footprint so will be interesting to see where this goes

This makes me believe Castle is reclassifying.

Would be nice to get back to the Cali kids. There is so much talent out there. Was Daniel Hamilton the last one we had? I think Deandre Daniels was an LA kid too.

Yeah I knew he was the reason why we were able to stretch out to CA. But it’s nice to see the staff try to build a pipeline out there. I know the northeast has a lot of talent too but it’s always good to expand into other areas. Even if it doesn’t pay off for this cycle, at least building those connections is a good start for future classes

Vance Jackson was the last California recruit we had, I believe

Got some UConn swagger

This is the second Compton magic kid we’ve been linked to in as many days.

Yes Kevin Ollie was a Compton/Crenshaw guy as well, certainly one of our better 4 year guards.

This is so hard for some to say or write.

Particularly for a guy who spent that many years in the NBA.

While he was technically born in CA he wasn’t really from there. He was a military kid who got moved every few years. Played his 4 years of HS in South Carolina, so I wouldn’t really consider him a “Cali kid”. We recruited him and brought him in from SC, not from the west coast.

I'm an idiot. He was born in California for what it's worth...

Actually didn't realize he was born in CA.....

For some reason I knew he lived in Germany and I knew he went to South Carolina for high school. His wiki is funny, mentioning he was picked on in SC for his British accent after relocating.

I am liking the new shuffle in recruiting strategy. Dan Hurley and staff are learning as I have said we need to expand our recruiting to Cali, the DMV, Georgia/Florida, and Texas for guards/wings.

I like the fact that we are recruiting Gavin Griffiths and Stojakovic Jr. Two sharp-shooters with size on the perimeter. With the schools recently offering Stojakovic Jr, his ranking will rise soon.

PS: Darius Carr is an average guard(Corey Floyd/BAdams level), but good for re-opening the Cali pipeline.

No

Akinjo is the last Cali commitment we got, but then decommited when we got DH/fired KO
