    HUGE pick-up for Lon!

    This kid is a true PG, and will be a major addition to the team. I was worried, after Shake Milton chose SMU, that we may be in some trouble getting a true 1. Looks like Lon had us covered.

    If you haven'e seen Pritchard play, look up some of his game film. He's one of the better ball distributors I've seen at the high school level. Awesome pick-up!

    Salt City beat me to it. I posted it in recruiting forum. I'm loving me some Lon.

    I love that he hasn't succumbed to the one and done atmosphere that the Kentuckys and Dukes have. We might not have as many final fours or national titles as them, but we won't have to start our program over every damn year and can watch our student-athletes grow, like Buddy Hield, Jordan Woodard and Ryan Spangler.

    I think that's more prevalent in the East. I don't know for sure, but I suspect the east is the more fertile recruiting ground and most guys that know they can play at the next level are only playing college ball because they have to play for a year.

    Personally, I'd take 10 Buddy Hield/Ryan Spangler/Jordan Woodard players over 1 Andre Wiggins. Like you said, it's hard to build a program on one and dones.

    Agreed. It would suck to only have 1 player.

    It has certainly been awhile since UCLA has been relevant, a few future NBAers notwithstanding (Westbrook, Love, etc). Kentucky has really embraced the NBA pipeline since Calipari came over from Memphis... and I don't like it. Makes me want to laugh really hard when they lose in the NIT opening round, a game they couldn't host because they had planned to host the NCAA opening rounds instead
