    Can't speak for Duvall, but knowing that Charles O'Bannon has a son old enough to be recruited makes me feel ancient.

Most noticeable, though, was that Bishop Gorman itself had eight of the 200 kids at the camp, including Charles O'Bannon and a few other really impressive kids. That program is committed.
    That's good to hear. Academic abilities of individual players vary, of course, but Bishop Gorman is a well-regarded academic school, as well as being a powerhouse in both basketball and football. Their basketball coach, Grant Rice, has been at Bishop Gorman for 13 years and has bagged 9 state championships in that time. It'd be nice to establish a BG-->Duke pipeline.

    Because Troy Brown, Jr.'s school (Centennial High) is public, it can't draw out of its geographic area quite the way BG can. But it's going to be fun to watch HS b-ball in Vegas this season. Based on your report, maybe for a stretch of seasons.

    Thanks for explaining that, although I too now feel ancient.

    "Crusty", I think, is the official DBR term.

    Crusty? Perhaps "starched"

    But the man worthwhile
    is the man who can smile
    when his shorts are too starched in the seat

    The folks upstairs at CIS have often been referred to as the Cameron Crusties. Not sure who originated the term, but it's a good one.
    [redacted] them and the horses they rode in on.

    Troy was at Kansas for their big Late Night thing this past weekend, and the Jayhawks offered him. No surprise there.
