Even if it rains?
Could we change it to the Buena Vista over Irish coffee?

no, i don't think he would've offered battin if he was our coach
when pasternak called me to thank me for my support of him on the monster he told me the 2018 class would've prioritized jordan brown & that he would've tried to bring brandon williams & miles norris to berkeley...he did not mention battin at any point
the problem with your twitter approach to scouting is that you really don't have any idea of who coaches are actually offering in real life and if they are just offers (an intent to recruit), conditional offers (contingent upon academic standards and/or other players not committing based upon the rankings on the big board) or actionable offers (offers that can be accepted at any time, jordan brown & chase jeter got actionable offers from coach wyking)
the monster is about what's going on in the real world, not trying to put together recruiting lists based upon stats & incomplete information

I don't have to have any idea what the coaches are doing or who they are offering (or what kind of offers they made to recruits). Let me remind you this is a discussion/opinion forum. These are my opinions or my wish list of recruits. People post opinions all the time. If I report on who the coaches are actually offering or have interest, that would be news/facts and not opinion. This forum allows both news/facts and opinions to be posted. I have posted both news/facts and opinions, including countless breaking news and exclusive info on football/basketball recruits, hard-to-find full game videos of recruits, unusual tidbits that people may not know otherwise, and exclusive livestream links (including the Aussie game offering the first glimpse of Rabb and Brown playing for Cal). And my suggestions on what recruits we should look at are not that far off from other posters who suggested recruit names our coaches have no interest in, are not recruiting, or do not qualify for admission.
Oh and please do not PM me again. I left here once and will do so again if I lose the passion of sharing Cal related info because of posters like you.

Perhaps Wyking has a certain vision for what he wants out of his bigs. Perhaps he doesn't feel Battin fits his style of play. Perhaps he's after other targets. Who knows really.

My guess and it is a guess is that the staff does not feel Battin is what they want from a defensive perspective. At least at this point in time. I think most feel Battin will certainly be fairly widely recruited. Whether he is a good fit for what Jones wants to do or if they have others rated higher I do not know. My feeling is they are trying with Chase Jeter as a transfer and of course Jordan Brown as a 2018 recruit. Both would be considered superior prospects by most if not all analysts and coaches. But that does not mean Battin is a poor player and Cal could still make a play for him if others do not pan out.

Walker isn't a West Coast guy. His connections are in Texas, according to Rivals' Eric Bossi. We'll see how it all works out.
Shocky1;842830902 said:
no, meeting at the buena vista is unacceptable to coach walker, he's gonna be recruiting around the clock so 4:00 am should work just fine plus he already got enough energy without any irish coffee

Then there is John Paul Jones.. My roommate used to say, "Jones is too slow". But thats another sport

Hey, I think I figured out who the new Assistant's gonna be:
(east coast wildcat, bad hair, kinda likes to talk)
Rollie Massimino! I had to google him to see if he was still alive. He is, and still in coaching! Do I win the prize?
Shocky1;842831055 said:
big c, you don't win the big prize (primarily because you guess is 100% wrong) but i dunno maybe you should probably get a parting gift like sunglasses or something, i'll talk to monster management about that

coach wyking is actively recruiting duke transfer 6'10" 230 lbs chase jeter, he got a 7'1.5 wingspan & a 9'1.25 standing reach
jeter is from bishop gorman high school & played for the las vegas prospects, he is a former top 10 player in the 2015 class (along with ivan rabb & jaylen brown) & a former mcdonalds all american...he sat out part of this season after surgery to fix a herniated disc in his back, jeter would rehab next season & be a 35+ minute starter at the 4 replacing marcus lee in 2018
chase is not a dumb azz, he got a 3.86 gpa in high school with an interest in political science...berkeley would make sense from a playing time perspective as marcus, sam & the king will all be seniors as jeter sits out next season & then he would be an impact starter for the bears in 2018 playing 35+ mpg
the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public (#3 overall) university in the world (including las vegas)

cal's monster class exclusive (yet another) announcement:
chase jeter is gonna officially visit berkeley in the next week after theo & chris are both on campus, the staff is targeting a potential 2018 devastating front line of chase & jordan brown
cal is the only academically elite school among jeter's finalists (moms kim is a school teacher, she not raising any dumb azzs) that can also guarantee 35+ mpg & a feature role in 2018 after marcus lee graduates with a degree & a potential 1st round selection in the 2018 NBA draft
this **** is getting live:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree:tree
chase jeter's 8 finalists: cal, usc, ucla, utah, sdsu, oregon, arizona & gonzaga

This is very good news. This would be a great situation for Jones, Jeter, and Cal. If Jones can bring him in, it shows that Cal can play with the big boys and Jeter gets as many minutes as he wants to show his stuff. If Jones can bring in a couple other big names, it will show that Cal is indeed a destination.

I'd be very happy if Chase became a Bear. I saw all his Duke games and he didn't get much PT because he was just very raw early on and growing into his body somewhat. All the tools are there though. He's a good kid who is intelligent and plays with great energy. It seemed like this last season, the light was beginning to come on for him and he was becoming more of a contributor until back issues sidelined him for the rest of the season. Sitting out a season will just add another layer of polish and enable him to become a major contributor in his final two years. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I predict we develop a regular pipeline of guys transferring from Kentucky after Coach Cal recruits over them.

tyler dorsey (and his dad) of the oregon basketball organization will sign with an agent & declare for the 2017 nba draft, earning a degree is never part of the plan in eugene
multiple nba sources have told me he will have trouble ("unskilled passer with streaky shooting skills at best") making any nba roster which will leave him looking for employment at the medford truck stop as a nite shift supervisor until he eventually marries a lot lizard & dies a slow painful death from contagious stds

You are nothing if not consistent. Cal actively and aggressively recruited Tyler Dorsey. Your immature and asinine trashing of kids who choose to play hoops elsewhere ( and everyone except perhaps you knows that he would have left Cal had he experienced similar on court results here as he did in Eugene) is embarrassing and uncalled for. Cal has its own limitations and has to compete against fellow PXII universities in spite of them. Your Brilliant call that Pasternuts was going to get the Cal job perfectly demonstrates your "connections" and inside knowledge. Your chastising BBINLA that his Twitter Recruiting isn't at the level of yours is embarrassing. Did you grow up constantly needing attention? Sure seems like it based on how you treat fellow Cal fans/alums.
Take stock of your behavior and actions. It's not too late for you to stop acting like a horses backside toward student athletes and fellow Cal fans/alums. If this is how you act around your daughters, I certainly hope that they have a better role model in their mother.
