Glad the university put this out in a press release to recognize an alum.

"Kennedy Chandler, the top-ranked point guard in the 2021 ESPN 100, committed to Tennessee on Friday, giving the Volunteers a five-star recruit for the third straight year.

Chandler, who is ranked No. 12 overall in the ESPN 100, chose Rick Barnes' program over a final group that also included Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina and Memphis.

'I want to go where the school felt like it was home,' Chandler told ESPN. 'I was looking for a program that could help me develop and have a strong family atmosphere, and a coach I could relate to. Tennessee and Rick Barnes made me feel that way.'

It continues a strong recruiting run for Barnes, who has landed six ESPN 100 prospects in the past four classes."

Wish him a speedy easy recovery and hopefully no long term health complications from it. Would really suck for Justin if he transferred to UGA for his last year of eligibility and ended up not seeing meaningful minutes. Can take months to get back to 100% physically, even for a mild case.

https://www.nbcsports.com/washingto...re-shares-story-being-handcuffed-being-street:

"In light of the Milwaukee Bucks boycotting their NBA Playoff game and the rest of the league postponing its games, Marquise Moore determined that it was time to share his story and his experience.

On Wednesday evening, the former George Mason basketball star shared his story of when he was racially profiled and handcuffed by a police officer. The reason? For 'being on the street.'

Moore posted a video [Warning: graphic language] on his Twitter account of him in cuffs and being escorted away to the police car.

'With the current climate of the world, I just felt like I shouldn't keep the story in,' Moore told NBC Sports Washington. 'I feel like people need to be made aware of situations like this. People need to be aware that you know situations happen like this more often than they think. Stuff happens like this on a daily basis whether it's on camera or not, but I just think people need to be more aware of what's going on in the world.

I just couldn't hold that story in anymore, so I just felt the need to tell my part.'

Moore's altercation with the police occurred in McAllen, Texas when he played with the Iowa Wolves in the NBA's G-league during 2019. He was with his team after a game against the Rio Grande Valley Vipers who are based in the neighboring town.

Both teams went out postgame to a nearby club. After they left the building and were waiting for their Uber ride, a Hispanic officer approached the group Moore was in. A majority of the members of his group were Black in an area where Moore viewed himself in the minority of other Hispanics. Moore estimates there were at least 100 people out on the street that night, but they were singled out.

The cop told the group they needed to leave when Moore informed him they were waiting for a ride.

Five minutes later the officer returned and was pretty aggravated. Moore maintains that his group wasn't doing anything wrong, just waiting for their ride like many others.

'Basically he got upset that we weren't leaving fast enough, mind you there's still like 100 people outside because the club just ended maybe five to 10 minutes ago,' Moore said. 'So there's still plenty of people outside, so I don't know why he was targeting just me, but he basically shoved me and then told me put my hands behind my back, handcuffed me and then basically just dragged me to his car through the street.'

Had it not been for the hometown Vipers stepping in during that immediate moment, he believes he would have gone to jail. Another officer arrived, who Moore described as 'more reasonable' to help deescalate the interaction. After running Moore's driver's license, he was let go."

The NCAA continues to hand out waivers like they're seedless watermelon at a 4th of July Party.

This is now the "Rules of Engagement".

We have added a new podcast to our network, the Expat Hoops Podcast. Recently there’s been some dialogue about Mason not doing a great job incorporating some former players, we’re stepping in. Andy and Tony, the 2 hosts, will feature Mason players who played or are still playing professionally overseas. They will also chat with former foes as well from the CAA and A10. Here’s both the intro and their first ever interview with Tony Skinn.

Give us feedback! For first timers, these dudes hit it out the park. Enjoy!

Yeah- I'll be interested to see how JDS does for Manhattan. Will he light it up and make us be gut punched is the question. MAAC might be better for him in terms of pace and ability. Hope he does well.
