[SIZE="5"]The Number 1 Monster
Ivan Rabb, the Monster of Monsters[/SIZE]


Number 1 at position
Number 1 in State
Number 1 in Nation



Looks pretty good in gold too




Also, a good student who values educational excellence, he's gotta like...

Check out his video:


[SIZE="5"]Now, THAT's MONSTER[/SIZE]

ESPN scouting report:

Ivan Rabb is one of the most athletic players in the class of 2015 and he uses that athleticism defensively to block shots, get deflections and gain offensive rebounds with a quick second jump. His post-up game against a set defense is developing as he can score with either hand in the paint. Love the way he finishes lob passes and drop off passes in the lane. His length and soft touch in close would make him a great weapon in the middle or short corners against a zone defense. He has added the pump fake at the rim which will keep help him balanced and create more free throw opportunities as he is smooth and solid from the line.

With a world of potential because of his size, wing span, advanced athletic ability and blossoming skill he owns all the markers to be a difference maker at the rim defensively and a legitimate offensive threat. He is more active and alert on the glass than ever before and [COLOR="Blue"]is at the point where you expect him to dominate the game on both ends of the floor.[/COLOR]

6'7" 185 lb 2015 4 star cameron walker is the bears #1 target at the 3

with a rockin' 4.57 weighted gpa at righetti hs in santa maria, walker is the perfect cal fit as an elite true student athlete & high flying impact player at the 3...cameron is a humble & team oriented player just like the bears last small forward nba draft pick alan crabbe

cameron has already been offered by most of the pac 12 and says "the academics are always the back up plan...if i don't play basketball professionally, i'm always going to fall back on my grades to have a good career"



cuonzo martin has reached out to cameron walker & made it clear to his family that he's a huge recruiting priority for the new staff to scout in person & develop relationships..."coach martin calls or texts me every day...he's asked me how i'm doing, how's school, how's basketball and just to be aggressive and look to score more"

with jabari bird's nba skill set best suited to the 2, the bears need to close on a blue chip wing for 2015

cameron's 8 finalists at this time are cal, ucla, stanford, florida, harvard, san diego state, asu & colorado...cameron grew up rooting for the bruins but alford is slow playing the walker family as he pursues his higher prioritized national wings but at the end of the day this is gonna be a cal vs stanford decision

check out this redunkulous block



cuonzo martin & tracy webster recently visited cameron, mom patricia (school teacher) & dad eric at their santa maria home & reconfirmed an official actionable offer for the elite 4.57 gpa wing

jon harris scouted each of cameron's games at the adidas gauntlet tnt in dallas

dad eric speaks highly of their former vanderbilt/harvard lead recruiter, yanni hufnagel

4>1

************************************************************

with finals (which impacted his recent play at the pagnos tnt) & advanced placement work done for the school year, cameron along with his mom & dad are driving to berkeley today for an unofficial visit with the california golden bears staff

the walkers intend to narrow down the college list by the end of july, start taking officials visits in august culminating with cameron signing in november

as i fly back to the desert after a long weekend in the hamptons, it never ceases to amaze me the high number of affluent & well educated people that approach me (i also smile a lot) & comment when they see my cal golf cap...cal is recognized & respected on a worldwide basis

brandon, with that in mind, let's take a look at the best case/worst case scenarios for your 2 collegiate finalists, ok?

*****washington state best case scenario: you earn the starting pg position as a freshman...ernie kent turns around the program & the cougars win 15+ games your last 2 seasons with a nit selection your sr season...upon graduation a loyal wsu fan hires you as a parks & rec sports coordinator for jr sports at the city of spokane with an annual salary of $23,500+ health benefits & a citywide free parking pass

*****washington state worst case scenario: you split pg time your 1st two seasons until you break your leg halfway thru your soph season which ends your bb career...you really hate the freezing azz winters in the palouse & you are constantly sick with the flu...your family & friends can't afford to visit you very often in pullman...ernie kent is caught again banging the wife of an important donor (that's why he was terminated at oregon, do your homework re: mr smooth) & he's forced to resign...the new wsu coach implements the princeton weave offense...upon graduation you find out that a wsu degree on the east coast is considered comparable to a ged certificate & you end up working as a busboy at chadwicks for 8 bucks an hour & you live with your parents until you're 30 yrs old

*****california worst case scenario: you split time with your buddy sam singer during your career & the bears make the ncca tnt 2 of the 4 yrs...with all the tasty restaurants in the bay area you develop a weight/belly problem & your nickname becomes "truck"...you graduate with a cal degree & are a jr executive with a washington d.c. lobbying firm earning $100,000+ a significant expense account at age 27

*****california best case scenario: you earn significant pt throughout your cal career at pg with your best friend sam singer...you both are key contributors to the bears final four teams in 2015 & 2016 with both you & sammy feeding sweet dimes to ivan rabb & jabari bird...you are a media sensation/crowd favorite with your filipino heritage & you are often asked to speak at local schools re: the importance of education & working hard regardless of your height...after a pro career overseas in barcelona, your cal degree opens doors to become a biz executive for a venture capital firm with offices in san francisco/new york city/london minting $250,000+ bonuses at age 28

sir richard midgley from burgess, england was one of the most hard azz & ferociously competitive players to ever wear a california golden bears uniform



midgley set a cal freshmen shooting record by connecting on 44.9% of 3 pters (44-98) including an ice in the veins game winning 3 pter with 3.9 seconds left in overtime to give the bears a 1st round ncca victory over north carolina state 76-74



richard midgley told me "i am married (my wife and i met at cal), living in the east bay and commuting to modesto everyday...i have been coaching/teaching at my old high school modesto christian for the last 4 years...after graduating from cal in 2006 I played professionally in england for 3 years and then moved back to california"



"my major at cal was social welfare...i was not planning on coaching when i stopped playing but I visited my old high school coach at modesto christian, gary porter, at an open gym just to say hi and as i was there did some skill training stuff with the team...there were a couple of 8th graders at the practice that i thought had some potential and that i would be able to help them so from that session i started doing a couple of practices a week over the summer which then progressed to daily practices when then progressed to me helping coach the team in the season which then progressed to me being hired full time at the school and taking over the program...i couldn't be happier with the way things have gone and i really enjoy trying to influence and motivate high school kids to achieve more in all areas of their lives"

"i consider theo robertson one of my closest friends...he keeps me up to date on everything going on at cal...he has been a great resource for me when i need some coaching ideas or thoughts on how to motivate some of my players...i do not get to as many games as i would like with our high school schedule and cal's schedule but i did get to the cal vs arizona game last week and enjoyed watching the game"

re: ivan rabb who played against modesto christian sat afternoon

"the first thing that comes to my head with ivan is special...he has great length and athleticism and his timing on blocking shots is excellent...he plays without fouling which is rare in high school...he has excellent touch around the basket with both hands and his footwork make him unguardable 1 on 1 on the post"



re: jeff "dr" wu, the shockster's top target for a 2015 cal preferred walk on slot


"jeff wu has an excellent gpa (3.5+)...he definitely would be good enough to walk on at cal...he has a few mid major schools showing a lot of interest in him though"

"was one of the top three-pointer shooters in the nation at Cal this season hitting 48.6 percent of his long distance shots.
He had a high of 18 points against Oregon State."


"Thurman completed his first professional season in Denmark after playing at Cal. He averaged 17.5 ppg and was the 4th leading rebounder in the league with 9.8 rpg."
They forgot to add the NCAA tournament game where he terminated the Running Rebels with SIX dunks

christian behrens rocked a 3.5 gpa (he ain't a stoopid dumb azz) & served on the school leadership team at tahoma hs in washington before bringing his 30' vj & 80' wingspan to berkeley

what you may not know about christian behrens is that his dad bj died at their maple valley home following a 16 month battle against brain cancer in the early hours of feb 19, 2010...he had turned 53 the month prior and was known for his bravery & great sense of humor

christian has said of his father "i know he's looking down at me...i know he's proud and that's what i'm trying to do every day in what i do, make him proud"

there can be no doubt that bj, mom andrea & sister rachel are very proud of christian who has also fought back from 2 serious knee surgeries

next time you're at a bears game, make sure that you recognize and celebrate christian behrens & the road less traveled he's taken in life

bj & christian behrens


gregg gottlieb told me "i thought christian played a large role in winning at stanford...he impacted the game with his defense and rebounding at both ends of the court...with david and richard in foul trouble it allowed us to sustain our momentum...if he continues to bring that to the table he will earn more minutes"

christian behrens has no quit in him, he is relentless...he has stared down tragedy more than once and perservered


christian behrens is truly unbreakable & a great teammate


"tough work out today, but wouldn't want it any other way...gotta get better"

-christian behrens after 1st workout with new bears staff

****************************************************************

christian behrens is practicing without a brace(s)...cuonzo martin told jeff faraudo that both behrens & roger moute a bidias impressed him at the 4 during limited workouts

"he (christian) improved every day...that's a great sign"

christian terrell has been offered by usc, washington and gonzaga with cal & ucla also recruiting him hard

but guess what?

christian has described cal as his "dream school"

sacramento mayor/former nba all star/bears starting pg kevin johnson would agree with that assessment

a soph ranked in the top 50 in the 2016 class describing cal as his "dream school" is not just some lucky azz good fortune for the bears, it's a direct result of the cal bb staff building early & deep relationships with key targeted prospects

this is cal basketball#

coach martin & staff will hopefully stay tight with the sacramento hs 2016 trio of christian terrell, arguably the most physical/best defender in nor cal solomon young & 3 pt sharpshooter tre finch

what player in the pac 12 has the disruptive length & skillset to most resemble the playing style of nba rookie of the year michael carter-willliams of philly?



what california golden bear most resembles samuel l jackson in unbreakable?



who will cuonzo martin & staff rely upon for upperclassmen leadership next season?



tyrone "let's rumble" wallace significantly improved his perimeter shooting from his freshman season & was the bear's best defender at times

but his game last season was erratic with the low pt at the asu game in tempe when mike montgomery lit up t-wall during a timeout after he inexplicably failed to dive for a loose ball near the bears bench...when play resumed, mike turned sideways to td and said "they're not listening" & shook his head

tyrone needs to bring it every moment he is on the court & also continue improving his outside jumper & shot selection...he is virtually unstoppable when he attacks the rim, if he wants to get paid $ playing bb down the road, that's gonna be his $ move

the dude always has a smile on his face, t-wall just gotta love it not hate it

"where i like the coaching staff and where the head coach is the main one talking to me so i know they really want me...if the head coach is calling, that means you're a priority"

-ivan rabb



"the schools that he has recruiting him are university of california-berkeley, ucla, usc, arizona, kansas, kentucky, georgetown and north carolina"

-lou richie, bod hc

early indications are that cuonzo & the new staff have made favorable 1st impressions

the former bears staff were fractured in their approach to the recruitment of the #1 player in the 2015 class...coaches told me there was "no chance" to "we should try harder"...my biggest divergence in opinion with the that staff (that led cal bb to the most successful era during the last half a century) centered around ivan's recruitment...only td attended bod's state championship game at sleepy train arena in sacramento after the bears season had already ended



mac dre agrees that not making every effort known to mankind to relentlessly recruit ivan rabb would be stoopid, gotta "growl like a bear"

duke: relatively brief unofficially visit with coach k who expressed an interest in recruiting rabb in the future

georgetown: visited with hc john thompson iii...ivan impressed with the urban (city) aspect of the campus vs the 2 north carolina schools & also the georgetown graduate school biz program

cal: "as soon as the new staff came in, they started contacted me regularly during the first week...they talk to me a lot and make sure that i know that i'm at the top of their list and that they really want me at cal...i have respect for all of their coaches and i'm looking forward to seeing what they can do next year"

a decision will be forthcoming during the spring of 2015 signing period

great shooters are not born great shooters
GREAT shooters get there by having the athletic ability, AND by working hard every day

it's not just when the lights are shining and the fans cheering
it's not just when the coach is practicing them
it's not just when their buddy calls them to 'shoot around alittle'
it's not just when they feel like it

looks like oski is goofing off again this summer



look, i don't wanna be overly critical of oski's teaching techniques (what kind of legit pro smiles like they've just been invited to an after hours party at lure nigthclub during a lesson?) but she is standing too far from the ball, she's set up for a weak azz cut or slice, she's made more of a sway move than a solid shoulder rotation & her wrists aren't fully cocked

the only person who has ever transferred (who did not flunk out) from cal to fresno state (gonna guess that no one has ever transferred from harvard to arizona or oregon either) shantay legans is also an asst coach at ew...wonder if shantay's mom susan is still calling the hc with her crazytown advice...i'll bet u $5 the ew hc has an unlisted #

who's got the best name in california high school basketball?



that would be paris austin, the 5'11" 155 lbs 2015 pg from bod who is blowing up this summer playing for dream vision on the aau circuit with strong performances at the pagnos tnt

austin is quick & aggressive although his hard charging style does lend itself to turnovers...an above average passer with a consistent mid range shot, he is not a true pg but more of a combo shooting guard with a pg's size

paris is picking up mid major offers (including one from td at montana) & is on the radar for several high major programs including cal

paris has been friends with bod teammate ivan rabb since 4th grade..."we are like brothers, we can talk about anything...we definitely want to go to the same college if we can"



the bears have taken pgs in both 2013 (singer) & 2014 (chauca) and are building strong relationships with christian terrell (2016) & damari milstead (2017)...pg class balance will likely be a factor in cal's evaluation & potential recruitment of the dragons pg

paris in berkeley is definitely a possibility

bonsoir, monsieur austin

yeah, vandalus is right about the date (we sat center court on the floor in goldman's seats next to bill "grateful dead" walton & roxy)...leave it to an attorney to remember a conversation with razor sharp clarity

so how did the bears not sign a local kid (salesian, coached by former cal bb team mgr bill mellis) with blazing speed (fastest guard in the pac 12 with asu's carson) with a strong gpa (3.6)?

travis decuire's dad told me the following story at the washington game in seattle:

da is a well regarded local middle school kid & td encourages him to keep working harder, td thinks he's a fast & fearless kid for 5'

da attends cal's camp as a freshman & plays well but td is thinking, man, he's a player, sure wish he wasn't 5'3"...no cal offer

da attends cal's camp as a soph & lights is up but td is thinking, man, he's a player, sure wish he wasn't 5'6"...no cal offer

da attend cal's camp as a jr & blows the roof off haas...he's now pushing 6' so td extends an actionable cal offer

da tells td, where were you a few yrs ago & eventually signs with oregon

td's dad told me that travis learned a few valuable lessons from da's recruitment & that's a large part of why cal started offering players earlier since the inception of the monster class thread

blue chip bb recruiting is more like asking the dream girl to the prom than you think...you gotta trust your heart

not gonna happen...according to mark olivier of the oakland soldiers, artis will visit & likely sign with steve lavin's st john's program if he passes the school's due diligence checks

it's easy to forget after the first game that we have 5 freshmen on this year's team that six months ago were sitting in their high school history class. We give them one game as a newbie, and then analyze every shot, move, mistake they make as if they were NBA professionals.

but basketball is a game, and these players are here for the love of that game. I really like this photo, because it shows what kinda players they are, and it has nothing to do with whether we make a run for the tournament or not.

proud of the players who are representing Cal basketball and the University

Rooks surprised me last year with the dramatic progress he made up until his injury. He's gonna be a good one.

HoopDreams, that picture is awesome.
