charlie is officially visiting memphis this weekend, too bad coach webster can't accompany moore on this trip, tracy likes music & dancing a lot plus he's a lot of fun (he's kinda like elvis that way)
let's be real here, memphis is not even an academically mediocre school but 86% of corporate recruiters favor candidates with a degree from the university of memphis than those with only a ged or those that can't read

after practice saturday i met jay kim, a recent haas biz school grad (like myself), who will be providing analytics to coach martin this upcoming season re: the tendencies of opponents, cal's best 2nd half small line up, etc.
jay was motivated by the movie billy ball & the successful championship usage of analytics by the oakland a's in professional baseball...while all nba teams utilize analytics, very few colleges do so at this time which is gonna put the bears ahead of the curve...yeah, bears are smart...he told me he will be explaining his role to visiting recruits, this is the kinda advanced intelligence that you expect from the #1 ranked public university in the world, no wonder malia obama is considering cal as her collegiate destination
kim is from south korea & i shared with him how graciously (banquet that evening in my honor & an interview with golf magazine south korea) i was treated at nine bridges on jeju island on a very windy day in becoming the 13th person to successfully play the world's top 100 golf courses...yeah i drained this 25 foot putt on the island par 5 18th green to finish the quest in style, that's just how bears do **** & stuff like that
not too bad for a former san francisco golf club caddie, gotta pursue your dreams

who is the earliest morning riser within the cal basketball program?
that would be marcus green, the assistant director of basketball operation...the high energy/good energy dude eats breakfast with the guys at the training table every morning, serves as a big bro on a lot of topics from school to girls & is a relentless class checker to ensure everybody is where they gotta be in addition to his operational support of the director of basketball operations marco harris
marcus grew up in the chicago area, was a 4 year letterman & 2 time team captain at purdue along with graduating with a degree in organizational leadership & supervision and later played professionally in buenos aires, argentina which has got a lot of curvy brunette yoga females
there's an app named waze which provides info in real time the location of police officers & traffic accidents...a couple of the bears told me that they got a code name for marcus that they text to each other when green is on the prowl
moms of prospective recruits gotta feel reassured that their sons are in good hands with marcus green keeping an eye on everything...let's be real here, coach martin is usually sleeping while marcus roams berkeley before the dawn every morning
this is cal basketball#

jade smith is a 6'2" 160 lbs 2017 point guard from st joseph's in alameda...smith is being actively scouted by the bears coaching staff as #5 for the pilots brings length, speed & overall strong court awareness to the court...jade's height creates mismatches against opposing guards & his decision making/floor vision are exceptional
yeah, there was another dude who played the 1 and facilitated his teammates as a standout for st joe, cal & in the nba back in the day

the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public (#3 overall) university in the world (including oakland)

congrats to jade smith on his offer from coach martin after his 5 hour unofficial visit to cal sunday including watching them california golden bears practice & getting the vip tour from coach hufnagel
smith has gotta work on his shooting touch, continue to develop strength & work harder in the classroom to raise his current 3.0 gpa
jade is a key targeted prospect for cal's touch the sky class (2017), he's no lupe fiasco that's for sure...dude is a man of steel when shooting game winning moneyball free throws with everything on the line, kinda like another #5 from st joe's who played for the bears

How does height at 6'-2" create mismatches at the guard position in 2015? Other than Chauca and a few others, I would guess that 6-2 at the point may even be small.
Shocky1;842563957 said:
jade was 5'10" as a freshman & is now pretty close to 6'3" and still growing...smith is only a junior in high school (2017 class)
south bender;842563969 said:
Well, all I read in your post is that he is 6-2. Moreover, you don't know if he is still growing taller. A person grows taller till he stops growing taller, and that is known only in retrospect.
Go Bears!
Shocky1;842563976 said:
the original post was written half a year ago, he was 6'2" then...trust me the staff knows if guys llke jade smith & damari milstead are still growing (or not) & that impacts cal's prioritized recruitment of targeted prospects

"Human growth plates"? I like it, though I have no idea what it means.
I would like also to comment on your frequently used, "trust me." In a graduate seminar, a professor made the point that whatever someone says about themselves, one should read as meaning the opposite. I have come to appreciate the truth of his comment, which in my early 20s seemed cynical.

tom, thank you for clarifying this for me, that is much appreciated
can you believe it that i graduated from the haas undergraduate school of business with a 3.91 gpa & phi beta kappa honors?
my guess is that all of them curvy brunette yoga female teaching assistants & professors just took care me because of my special non academic skills
