If you guys are bored tonight watch Kingston Flemings (UH) against TCU this evening at 8 pm on ESPN2.

He is a freshman and dropped 42 pts @ Tech this past Saturday.

He's projected to be a top pick in the NBA draft.

TCU is also running out of rope and needs to find a big win somewhere. They've got another Quad 1-A home game against Iowa State coming up, but I think they're probably going to need to win one of those two games to make it into the field. Assuming they don't pull off a miracle and win at Tech.

Without one of those three I think they probably have to win the rest of their games which would include winning at least a couple of games that they're going to be slight underdogs in.

And as you would expect from a typical UH player, he is a really good defender.

I'm a big fan also because he's got a little MJ / Kobe in him. He's not scared of big moments.

Even as a freshman, the team and coaches trust him to take over games during crunch time.

He's impressive and will be an excellent NBA player.

There are so many stud freshman this year in college bball. It's crazy. I'd list them but I'm lazy.

This might be the best freshman class I can remember watching this game

All these good freshmen are not ready for our mother-in-law defense.

Why can UH get a freshmen like this and A&M can't?

Because red is a good color on them?

More money?

That, or maybe all the elite eights/ finals fours / conference titles they've been to lately

Sampson is why.

We'll get ours soon.

Bucky is a tremendous coach. What a great hire. I think he will be a legend VERY soon.

UH has NIL money. A LOT. Coogs spend it wisely right now. Especially in football. That is what good coaching affords. Think value stocks.

I'll start with an obligatory "what do I know?" We're probably all largely saying the same thing. But, to me, it comes down to whether a player is motivated more by (overlapping) short (NIL) or long (NBA) term aspirations. Of course, high end players are all ultimately pointing to the NBA. With that said, I wouid think future lottery pick (one and done) players like Flemings are almost always going to go with an established program/coach. Players further down the pecking order motivated by instant playing time to show their ability and a nice early NIL payday are a better bet for us. Will be fun to see if Bucky can change that dynamic (although the one and doners may not necessarily be a good fit for "Bucky Ball)."

I like his solid family background- seems like a good kid from a good family in San Antonio.

It's hard for people to wrap their head around I guess, but Houston is just miles ahead of us as a program and has been for almost a decade now.

They're the best program in the state right now and it's not particularly close. There's a decent gap from them back to Texas Tech, and then from Tech to Baylor.

They have a damn good coach. If it was only money then the sips would never lose a game in anything

Hard not to appreciate the kind of program Kelvin has built.

Also, hard to believe the non-sense the NCAA put him through for "Text Messages" to recruits?

Did the punishment fit the crime?

No but when you're already on probation for something else it's a pretty dumb thing to do
