Nobody knows...but this coach is not stupid. He's not thinking he can win with NKU recruits if that's all he offers. Geezus give the man just a little credit and see what happens.
Bad handles don't allow you penetrate into lane from 3pt line and finish with dunks on more one occasion. One thing you notice with this kid and recruit from MD they both finished above rim

Bledsoe was the only real "lock" out of that group. But it was widely known that if UK came calling he would go there. Mayo was a train wreck and played for $$ at USC, Walker wanted to play for Huggins and Walker and Teague we were out-recruited.

This the issue none of you guys bring up on Samari and Brannen situation. Nku only 10miles farther than UC/x, usually recruits at least have local teams in their top 8 even when they know no chance in hell of them going to that school. Samari didn't have nku in his final top schools or did Brennen just pass on this certain type of local recruit. I doubt athletes are Brennen style right now. He had Wisconsin Mr basketball locked up but didn't get into top 8 of Mr basketball only 50miles from you?

I was impressed with how he used his body driving. And he finished way better than I expected.

He can dribble but it looked sloppy. He will get eaten alive in our conference if he doesn't improve that. And he has a jump stop but didn't see a step back or fade. He can pop 3's right now on the perimeter but he's not taking anyone off the dribble without a burst of speed or superior play making. He can work on that for a year or two and get much better.

He is not even close to being a year one contributor IMO. Unless we just put him in for a heat check.

We lost out on the younger teague also. Walker and ok came Cincinnati to play for UC flat out. Oh and he lost the Aiken kid that won championship at Louisville, he actually gave us a verbal.

I'm not looking for him put in floor his 1st couple seasons. He reminds me of Guy from Virginia. That kid is a baller. Way better than Moore. Moore didn't even start for his aau team.

for people to panic because he's going after a guy he's familiar with in a class with 0 players and a bunch of open scholarships, i mean that seems pretty stupid.
Don't use the Composite on 247.. Its trash.

Logan Johnson 4 Star #143
Keith williams was top 150
Samari was top 150


Thats one 4 star per year. All Guards.


Lets see Brannen land 4 star before we talk crap about Mick's recruiting.

Samari wanted to stay local at all cost. This kid was coming to nku as Mr basketball in Wisconsin. Why didn't Brennen recruit him while he was at nku. The best recruiters, I don't care where they coaching at go have some type relationship with best kids in 100miles radius of them. This should've been slam dunk transition for Samari if nku was already going after him. Is Brennen not a top recruiter or Samari just isn't his style player?
