2027 Tyler Brownlee

6'4 Playmaker Randle HS 210-410-2269 

Tyler Is Simply Caught In a #'s Game In a Big Basketball Market (Houston) I Haven't Seen This Kid Since Last Spring At a Camp And His Game Has Grown.  He's Playing a Lot More Aggressive, Rebounding It a Higher Level, And Has Gotten Physically Stronger Finishing Through Contact and Is Tough To Stop When Getting Downhill In Transition. Another Big Guard Who Has Size, Strength,  Length And The Athleticism That Translates To The Next. Level.   Moving Forward Tyler Must Bring Those God Given Traits To The Defensive Side Of The Ball-  With So Many College Teams Switching Perimeter Screens These Days Tyler Needs To Make Guarding The 1-4 His Ticket To Securing Offers And That's Exactly What Will Happen In The Spring!  He Soaks Up Coaching And His Game Has Grown So I Project He Will Do Just That & Turn Interest Into Scholarship Level Offers When It's All Said And Done.

If You're Going To Be a Dreamer, You Better Be a Doer... Well Marcus Is a Doer, And Continues To Get Better And Better Every Time I See Him Which Is No Surprise Knowing What I Know About This Kid.   My First Time Evaluating Marcus Was At a Houston Camp Before His Freshmen Year.   By The End of that first Camp 3 Years Ago, I Could See What Coaches Call The 'IT' Factor That Is Hard To Teach.  Fast Forward 3 Years And He Still Has That 'IT' Factor, Brings That Same Love For The Game When He Steps On The Floor, Competes On Both Ends, And Has a Contagious Attitude That Makes Everyone Around Him Better.  In a Time Where So Many Players Think They Are Owed Something: Marcus is a Throwback And Refreshing As He Just Loves To Play The Game, Appreciates Opportunities & Is Set To Breakthrough This Year at Bellaire.   Get This Kid On Your Radar As He Is a Coaches Dream And His Game Continues To Grow

Projected Levels: NAIA / NCAA D2

  

2028 Ellis Richardson

5'11 Point Guard Cy Falls 346-777-6967

 Man I Would Not Like To Be at the Dinner Table In The Richardson Household With Only One Dinner Roll Left-  Between Elton And Ellis I Have No Shot In That Scenario Of Taking A Bite of the Last Roll!  Analogy Aside, This Kid Similar To His Older Brother is T O U G H, And Plays With a Healthy Chip On The Floor.   Junkyard Dog On Defense,  Applies Consistent On Ball Pressure, Physically Strong, And Makes Winning Plays On Both Ends of the Floor.   Offensively, He is at his best In The Open Court Getting Downhill In Transition And Making Plays.   The Key For Ellis Won't Be Playing Any Harder Or Tougher, It Will Be Adding Defensive Discipline To Go Along With The Effort He Brings To Stay on the Floor For Longer Stretches By Staying Out of Foul Trouble.   Keep Your Aggressive Attacking 'Mindset' And Add Defensive Discipline Where You Pressure The Ball Without Going For On Ball Steals And College Coaches Will Start To Take Notice

2029 Jayce McCoy

6'3 Combo Guard Cy Fair 504-214-3046

  Jayce Is Another 2029 From Cy Fair That Has Scholarship Level 'Future Prospect' Written All Over Him- It's Been a Year Since My Last Evaluation of Jayce And You Can Tell He's Been Putting In Work This Summer And Is Set To Put Up Big #s This Year.   Cy Fair Has Some Impressive Young Talent Coming Up In The 2029 Class And Jayce Is One To Get On Early.   Stay Engaged On Defense, Is a Tough Matchup When Attacking The Paint, And Showed The Ability To See The Floor When Drawing Help Making Some High Level Passes To Get Teammates Open Shots.  His Ceiling Is High At 6'3 With His Ability To Make PG Plays And Defend The 1-3 Positions.   Moving Forward Keep Putting In Work On Your Perimeter 3pt Shot When No One Is Watching While Playing To Your Strengths- You Have Plenty of Time On Your Side And The Shot Mechanics Are There Just Continue To Work On Your Game,  You Are a Consistent 3pt Shot Away From Moving Onto D2+ / D1 Level Boards.

Projected Levels: NAIA+ / NCAA D2 

​

-South TX Camp-

2027 Wyatt Miller

 6'4 Wing-SF Orange Grove 361-207-8984 

Wyatt Doesn't Have a True Position And In Some Ways That Works In His Favor When it Comes To Finding a Great FIT:  He Shows The Ability To Play With His Back To The Basket And Post Up Smaller Wings, And The Skill Set To Take Forwards Outside And Knock Down 3s or Take It Off The Bounce.  Tough Matchup In PnR Action as a Pick And Pop 4 or Can Move The 3 Position And Put Points On The Board.  Having Said That, He Needs To FULLY Buy Into That His Scholarship Level Ticket Will Be On The Glass!   Wyatt Has Great Instincts When Pursuing Boards,  Seems To Get Every Missed Shot, And Has The Length And Good Hands To Not Only Secure Rebounds But Finishes a High % of Putbacks In The Paint After Rebounding It!   Elite Rebounder, Versatile Offensive Player, And Hard Worker Whose Best Ball Is Still In Front Of Him

2027 Roel Palacios

6'3 Shooting Guard Edinburg North 956-778-3265

 I've Evaluated Roel In Games This Summer And Wasn't Truly Aware Of His Ability To Shoot The Ball Like He Did In the STX Camp.  The Small Group Settings Allows College Coaches And Myself a Truer Assessment Of a Players Strengths And Talent- And Roel Can Flat Out Shoot The Ball Outside of Being a Hard Nosed Defender That Competes On D.  Coming Off a Jr Season Where He Was Named Defensive POY, He Showcased That He Is Not Only a Tough Defender But a 2-Way Player That Brings a Weapon To the Court With His Ability To Knock Down 46% of Shots Beyond The Arc (3pt % In 2025-2026)  Another Sleeper Hidden In STX To Get On Your Recruits To Watch List In 2027.  While Your at It- Check Out His Brother Raul As Well As He Can Flat Out Play And Edinburg North Could Make a Deep Playoff Run With Raul and Roel Leading The Way

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / NAIA

 

2027 Frankie Santiago

6'5 Playmaker Aransas Pass 361-230-2145

The 2027 In South TX Camp With the Highest Ceiling Was Frankie.  Coming Off a Jr Year Where He Earned All-State 1st Team Honors Along With Being Named Offensive POY In His District, He Is In Position To Not Only Have a Big Sr Season But Secure Scholarship Level Offers.  To Do So, He Must Prove He Can Guard A Wing In College and Elevate His Game On The Glass.   The Tools, Length And Talent Is There So It's Just a Matter Of Developing Consistent Habits In Both Areas And His Recruitment And Level Of Recruitment Will Increase.  Already A Scholarship Level Offensive Player And Athlete Heading Into His Sr Season, And Has Shown Progress In Each Camp So I Can Certainly See Frankie Taking His Game To Another Level This Year And Securing NAIA / D2 Level Offers In The Spring.  Too Much Talent, Size And Skill Set To Fly Under The Radar Much Longer- STX Sleeper To Get On Your List of Recruits To Watch In The 2027 Class 

Projected Levels: JUCO / NCAA D2

2027 Jeremiah Gomez

5'11 Point Guard Mission HS 956-720-3439

 Jeremiah Has Been Attending UC Exposure Camps Since His Sophomore Season, And I Can't Recall a Camp In Almost 2 Years That He Didn't Finish On 'Top'  Winners WIN And This Kid is a WINNER!   Reviewing College Coaches Notes In Just The Past 3 Camps Jeremiah Attending And They Consistently State: "Respect His Toughness, Grit And Will To Win..."  That Is not a Bad Trifecta To Bring to a Team.   What I Personally Love Is He's Had Some Challenges Outside of His Control, And That Has Never Stopped Or Discouraged Him From Bringing The Same Passion, Toughness, And Leadership Traits To Each And Every Camp He's Been at.   Good Things Come To Those Who Wait, And Jeremiah's Time is Now-  He's Put In The Work And Is Ready To Have a Big Sr Season at Mission HS   

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / Partial NAIA (Great Piece At a NAIA Program)

 

2028 George Garza

 6'8 Forward CC Carroll 956-324-4492 

Big Man with a High Ceiling And Time On His Side To Elevate Performance And Increase His Recruitment.  George Is One Of Those Players That Doesn't Know How Good He Can Truly Be When He Starts Playing More Consistent In Areas That Stand Out In His Favor. Loved The Way He Sought Out Coaching, Got Better As The Camp Went On, And Finished On 'Top' In South TX With So Much Room To Grow.   Although He Has a Solid Skill Set And Made Some Nice Plays Out of the HP, He's at His Best On The Black When He Pinned Hard Or Pursued Boards.  The Moments In The Camp When He Did That He Looked Like A Whole Different Level Player.  That's What Makes Uncommon Exposure Camps Truly 'UNCOMMON': The Post Camp Feedback And Direct Insight From College Coaches On What Players Like George Must Do To Increase Their Recruitment Over The Course of the Season Is What Has Turned Interest To Offers.  You Have Time On  Your Side Big Fella And A Recruits Cheat Sheet, Don't Let STX Opponents Off The Hook This Year By Hanging Outside The 3pt Line-  DOMINATE THE PAINT and Knock Down Timely 3's And There Won't Be Many In South TX That Will Have An Answer For You. 

Projected Levels: NAIA+ / NCAA D2

(Great FIT in HC System With High Low Action And Man To Man Defenses That Teach Pack Line Principles)

 

2028 Noah Garza

5'11 Point Guard Sharyland HS 956-638-5622

  Noah Got My Attention From The Opening Drill And Kept It Until The Last Possession Of The Final 5 on 5 Game With His Effort, Competitive Toughness, And Communication Throughout The Camp On Both Ends.  College Ready Leader Coming off a Great Jr Year Earning Both Offensive & Defensive MVP of the District.    If You Are Undersized a Bit You Must Do 2 Things Consistently To Draw College Level Interest: #1 Lead (Be Vocal) #2 Be The Best On Ball Defender At All Times.  Noah Was Both For 5 Hours In South TX And Left His Mark Not Only With The College Coaches But Won Me Over As He Never Stopped Communicating And He Consistently Guarded The Ball From Start To Finish.  Needs The Right FIT -  Teams That Play Fast And Extend Their Defensive Pressure Get Noah On Your Board, He's One To Track This Season.  Pure PG And College Ready Leader Flying Under The Radar In STX To Add To Your List of 2028s To Watch List

Projected Levels: D1 JUCO / NCAA D2+

​

2028 Harrison Pohlmeier

 6'3 Shooting Guard CC Ray 361-537-8679 

 College Ready Shooter w/ Size, High Basketball IQ And Does a Great Job When Run Off The Line At Taking It off The Bounce And Drawing Fouls.  Harrison Just Knows How To Play And When He Got In The Paint vs Bigger Guards / Small Forwards He Used His Body And Angles To Draw Contact or Finish Through Contact.  Deceptive Athlete On Defense That Showed The Ability To Keep Smaller Quicker Guards In Front Of Him, And Stayed Engaged and Active Off The Ball Defensively Taking Some Big Charges In The Game Portion And Getting His Hands On Balls In Passing Lanes.   Knocks Down 3s at a High %,  Takes Good Shots & Plays Within His Game Which is a Great Thing.   Too Many Players At Our Camps Try To Showcase Things That They Can't Do Exposing Bad Habits, Harrison Did The Exact Opposite And Had a Very Good Showing In South TX With 2 Years To Continue to Grow and Improve.  Under-Recruited 2 Guard To Get On Your Radar And Great Invite To Your Elite Camp So You Can Get a Closer Look at all the little things Harrison Does That Help Teams Win

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / NCAA D2

​

2029 Caleb Black

6'3 Combo Guard CC Carroll 847-412-8322

 The Only 2029 To Make The STX Report & Possibly The Most Physically Talented Player At the South TX Camp Was 2029 Caleb Black.   In Session #1 You Could See The Potential And Talent To Play at the Higher Levels (D2+ / D1) Once The Games Began,  It Was Apparent That Caleb Was The Most Physically Gifted Player On The Court Making Some D1 Level Plays In The 5 on 5 Tourney.   Moving Forward The Key For Caleb To Start Drawing Genuine Interest From Those Levels Is to NOT Rely On Physical Talent Alone In a Smaller Basketball Market.   He's Young, Soaked Up Coaching, Sought Out Insight Post Camp On Areas He Must Improve, Which Bolds Well For Caleb As His Biggest Challenge Will be Consistently Playing To His Highest Potential Not To The Level Of Competition.  Players w/ D1 Level Upside Like Caleb In Smaller Regions Must Be Disciplined Enough To Develop Consistent Habits Regardless Of Who The Opponent Is.  If Caleb Can Do That Over The Course of the Season He Will Head Into The Summer On D2+ / LM D1 Boards With Time On His Side. 

Projected Levels: D1 JUCO / NCAA D2+

(With 2 Years To Grow His Game & D1 Level Talent- Caleb Could Head Into The Summer On D1 Boards)​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

2026 Hector Lopez (RS) 346-349-9673

 6'3 Shooting Guard Alief Elsik HS

Hector Is The Only 2026 In The September Report after a Source of Mine Reached About His Situation And Asked If I Can Take  a Look at Him In The Houston Camp- Not Sure Why This Kid Wasn't On More Radars Coming Out of a HS, But After Evaluated Him In Both The Houston And East TX Camp- The Physical Talent Is There And Hector Is a College Ready Shooter w/ Range.   Plays Hard, Scores It in a Variety of Ways And Will Be a Great Midseason Pickup To Put On Your Practice / Developmental Team For One Semester To Get Him Acclimated To Your System And School.   The Grades Are There, The Talent is There, And The Size Is There at the 2 Guard Spot To Earn a Roster Spot In 2027-2028.   If You Are Looking To Bring In Players At Midseason Hector Is Worth a Close Look An Opportunity To Earn a Spot after Sitting Out 2nd Semester

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / JC-NAIA Midseason Pickup To Put On Practice Team For One Semester- Talented Enough To Earn a Varsity Roster Spot In The Spring

 When All 3 College Coaches On Staff In East TX List "Motor' As One of Gerimah's College Ready Strength You Are Already Ahead of 50% of Your Peers These Days-  Physical Big Wing That Stays In Attack Mode And Gets Downhill Both In The Open Court And Half Court.   Competes On Both Ends And Has The Physical Talent And Toughness That Translates To The Higher Levels.  Needs To Put In The Work When No One Is Watching On His Overall Perimeter Offensive Game And 3pt Shot, But Brings Too Many Intangibles To a Team And Makes a Lot of Winning Plays Without The Ball In His Hands That May Not Show Up On Stat Sheets But Makes Teams Better.  Tough Tweener That Can Guard The 1-4 Positions And Is At His Best When The Game Speeds Up.  Get This Kid On Your Radar I Project He Will Do Big Things This Year & His Stock Will Continue To Rise

Projected Levels: D1 JUCO / NCAA D2

 

2027 Anthony Smith 682-241-2085

6'8 Forward Chapel Hill HS

You Know The Old Saying 'You Can't Teach Size..."  That Is True But I've Seen a Lot of Bigs That Look The Part But Bring Very Little To The Floor But Being Big.  Big Ant Is No Where Near The Level He Can And Will Be Playing at But He Has The Motor, Skill Set, And Soaks Up Coaching So His Best Ball Is Yet To Come.  College Ready Rebounder And Help Defender That Has Good Instincts Off The Ball Defensively And Gets a Lot of 2nd Shots For His Team.   Showed The Ability to Catch and Finish In The Paint, Explosive Athlete That Had Several Dunks In Traffic & When He's Pinning In The Paint He Looks Like a Whole Different Player.   With The Uncommon Approach Players Get Direct Feedback In Areas To Elevate That Increase Recruitment And I Can Already See Big Ant Implementing Some Things That Make Him Tough To Guard.  Too Big, Too Strong, Too Much Upside Not To Have On Your Recruits To Watch List 

Projected Levels: D1 JUCO / LM D1 Upside If He Goes The JUCO Route And Has 2 Additional Years To Grow His Game

 

2027 Landon Brown 936-788-4052

 6'5 Wing-SF A&M Consolidated

Landon Might Be The Most Intriguing Prospect at the East TX Camp With Tools You Can't Teach, MM D1 Level Athleticism, And The Length And Versatility On Both Offense And Defense To Guard And Play Multiple Positions.  Needs an Up Tempo Pressing System To Truly Excel, If You Play Fast And Extend Your Defensive Pressure Get Landon On Your Radar As He Is a FIT!   The Areas of His Game That Need To Improve Are Very Fixable And The Coaches On Staff All Said That He Made The Most Progress Over The Course of the Day Which Indicates He Will Get Better and Better As The Season Progresses.   Really Liked This Kid's Upside, Motor, And Physical Talent With Time On His Side And How He Responded To Correction / Coaching In a One Day Camp Puts Him On My Top Sleepers To Track This Season.   Stay Tuned Landon Is Set To Do Big Things His Senior Year And Will Head Into The Spring On College Coaches Boards

2027 Darron Pair 903-261-9233

6'3 Point Guard Pine Tree HS

  Darron Showed The Ability To Score It at All 3 Levels, But He is at His Best When Attacking The Paint And Creating Plays off the Bounce.   Really Good Playmaker With Size And Court Vision To See Over The Top of the D When Drawing Help And Finding The Open Man Or Finishing In Traffic.   Needs To Tighten Up His Handles And Show He Can Shoot The '3' More Consistently But The Shot Mechanics Are There And If He Puts In Work In The Weight Room This Fall Both Areas Will Improve & He Will Start To Draw More and More Interest From College Coaches.   Really Like Darron's Ability To Put Up Points In Bunches And Score It in a Variety of Ways To Go Along With His Size at the PG Position.   Capable of Playing Both The PG And Off Guard Position,  Can Guard The 1-3 Spots And Fits an Open 5 Out Offense With His Playmaking And The Ability To Create His Own Shot Off The Bounce. 

Projected Levels: D2 JUCO / NAIA+

​

2027 Connor 'Roc' Rosenthal 381-541-2033

 6'1 Combo Guard Peobody Magnet (LA) 

   I'm a Sucker For Toughness And Players That Impact Outcomes On The Defensive End And Connor is College Ready Tough And a Scholarship Level Defender That Stays Engaged And Competes at a  High Level.   Solid Offensive Player As Well That Doesn't Do Things He Can't Do, And Plays With Good Pace Making The Right Play Over The Highlight Play.   College Coaches On Staff Assessed That 'Roc' Must Become Consistent At One Thing On Offense, And I Agree That He Need To Be Elite In One Facet Whether It Be APG, Finishing In The Paint or Knocking Down The '3' At a Higher %.  Having Said That, I've Personally Recruited And Coached Players Like 'Roc' the NAIA & D2 Levels Strictly Due To They Were Junkyard Dogs That Will Teams To WINS On The Defensive End And With Their Contagious Effort And Energy.   This Kid Won Me Over And Might Have Been My Favorite Guard In The Camp With How Hard He Played, And How Consistent He Guarded Both On And Off The Ball.   You Can Get In The Gym And Get Better At Your Skill Set But It's Tough Late To Develop Your 'Mindset' So He's One I Would Take a Closer Look On another Loaded Peabody Team And You Will See The Impact He Makes When It Comes To Winning Or Losing

Projected Levels: JUCO / NAIA+

2027 Kalen 'Red' Eddie 318-612-2460

6'2 Shooting Guard Peobody Magnet (LA)

   Kalen Has An Old School Game Where He Just Produces At a High Level And Plays With The Confidence You Want and Need In The Off Guard Position In College.  It Seemed Like In Every Segment of the Camp From The 3 On 3 To 5 On 5 Games He Took And Made The Game Winning Shot!   Loves The Moment, Wants The Ball In His Hands And Always Seems To Get To His Spots And Knock Down Shots Without Letting The Defense Speed Him Up.   Moving Forward The Key Will Be Elevating His Game as a Leader And On The Defensive End To Secure His Highest Potential Offer, But He Will Be Well Coached At Peabody Magnet HS (LA) And My Gut Tells Me He Will Rise To Occasion And Be Playing His Best Ball When It Counts The Most (District / Playoffs) Keep An Eye On 'Red' He Is Set To Have a Big Sr Season For The LA Defending State Champs And Will Be a Key To How Far They Go In 2026-2027.

Ephraim Is a True 2-Way Player That Can Get You 20 And Guard the Opposing Teams Best Player At the Same Time.  Long Slashing Wing That Gets Downhill And Finishes Through Contact or Draws Help And Finds The Open Man.  Had Moments Where You Can See His Potential To Be a D2+ / D1 Level Defender That Can Guard Multiple Positions- Grow Those Moments Ephraim Until They Become Your Identity Every Time You Step On The Floor And Big Things are Ahead of You.  Offensively, He Is at His Best Taking It off the Bounce And Capable of Knocking Down Timely 3's To Keep Defenses Honest and Open Up More Opportunities To Attack The Paint And Make Plays.  One of 2 Seniors Listed By The 3 College Coaches as a Scholarship Level Prospect To Get On Your 2027 Recruits To Watch List

2027 Jaysek Witt 512-797-6936

6'3 Shooting Guard RR McNeil HS

 Jaysek Attended The Austin Summer Camp And Didn't Realize How Good He Is At Knocking Down A High % of 3's In Catch And Shoot Situations Until The DFW Camp- He Moves Extremely Well Off The Ball And Gets To His Spots, Stays Shot Ready, Has a Quick Release And Scholarship Level Size at the 2 Position To Shoot Over The Top of the D.  Right Now He Brings a Weapon To Any Roster With His Ability To Shoot The Ball, Moving Forward Adding One Consistent Trait Outside of Knocking Down Shots Whether It Be Rebounding,  Great Off Ball Defender, Leadership Traits, Etc. Will Determine His Recruitment And Level Of Recruitment In The Spring.   RR McNeil Has Some Solid Pieces This Year And Several Sr Returners To Lead Them On a Deep Playoff Run- If Jaysek Elevates His Game Without The Ball In His Hands Not Only Will His Role Increase But Coaches Will Start To Take Notice.  Too Much Size With The Skill Set And 3pt Shot To Not Keep an Eye On...  

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / NAIA

(Physically He Can Play His Way Into Higher Level Offers)

2027 Taylen Medina 936-703-8013

6'4 Wing-SF Willis HS

  Taylen Doesn't Have a True Position And In The Right FIT, That Works In His Favor- 5 Out Motion Offense Teams That Teach Packline Principles And Switch Screens FITS Taylen's Game And Strengths.  He Has The Ability And Length To Play With His Back To The Basket When Guarded By Smaller Wings & The Skill Set To Be Very Effective In Pick N Pop Situations Where  He Can Space The Floor w/ His Ability To Knock Down 3s, Make The Right Pass or Take Bigger Forwards Off the Bounce In Ball Screen Action.   High IQ High Academic Small College 3/4 That Will Be a Solid Four Year Piece To The Puzzle In Programs That Recruit And Develop True Freshmen Over Signing a Bunch of Transfers. Taylen Needs the Right FIT But No Question Is a College Level 3 Or Stretch 4 Whose Best Ball Is Still In Front of Him 

Projected Levels: DCCCD League- D2 JUCO / NCAA D3+

(Could Play His Way Onto Scholarship Level Boards This Season)

 

2027 Anthony 'AJ' Williams Jr 469-422-5234

 6'4 Playmaker Seagoville HS

 The 2027 Surprise of the DFW Camp Was AJ Williams.  The Foundation And Physical Talent is There to Have a Big Sr Season And Head Into The Spring on College Coaches Boards-  Plays Hard, Pursues Boards From the Wing Position And You Can See When He's Fully Engaged and Locked In The Potential To Turn Interest Into Offers When It's All Said and Done.   It's Just a Matter of Being Consistent At His Two College Ready Strengths: Defending and Rebounding While Putting In Work On His Overall Offensive Skill Set.   Excels In The Open Court And Is At His Best Getting Downhill In Transition And Finishing Plays at the Rim:  AJ Has The Length, Athleticism And Physicality To Be An Elite Defender And Scholarship Level Rebounder If He Buys Into Both Than Coaches Will Take Notice.   Keep Working On Your Game And Play To Your Strengths AJ And Your Recruitment Will Start To Pick Up This Season 

Projected Levels: D2 JUCO / D1 JUCO

(AJ Is a Consistent Perimeter Shot Away From Securing Scholarship Level Offers)

 

2027 Charles Bell 430-302-5012

6'4 Wing-SF Kaufman HS

  Charles Is An Active Rebounder, Deceptive Athlete And The Versatility To Play Multiple Positions On Offense And Defend The 1-4 On Defense.   Needs an Up Tempo System But Has a Good Motor, Does all the Dirty Work, And Finds Ways To Impact The Game Without The Ball In His Hands.   Would be a Great FIT In a Program That Plays Fast And Looks To Score In Transition Or Early Offense And Extends Their Defensive Pressure And Traps-  Avg. a Double Double His Jr Year And Is Caught In a #s Game In a Big Basketball Market.  Too Much Size And Physical Talent To Not Start Drawing More Interest, Especially If You Factor In That Charles Doesn't Need The Ball To Help Teams WIN.   He Makes Things Happen And Does a Great Job Pursuing Boards And Getting 2nd Shots For His Team Or Sprinting His Lane And Finishing Plays In Fast Break Situations.   If You Play Fast Add Charles To Your List of Recruits To Watch This Season

Projected Levels: JUCO / NAIA+

2028 Miles Bracken 214-793-0011

 6'2 Combo Guard LD Bell HS

 My Personal Favorite at the DFW Camp Who Is Flying Under The Radar Was 2028 Miles Bracken-  When The Camp Got Tougher Miles Got Tougher And When Miles Was Challenged By Coaches, Miles Stepped Up His Game a Notch, And By The End of the Day You Could See What This Kid Looks Like When He Is Playing To His Maximum Potential.  The Best Thing Miles Has Going For Him Is 'Playing To Your Maximum Potential' 100% In His Control!   No Coach, No Offensive Scheme, No System, Etc. Can Keep You From Playing Extremely Hard And Engaged On D And When Miles Was Locked In The Last 2 Hours of the DFW Camp You Can See This Kid's Potential And Is Set To Have a Breakthrough Season at LD Bell.  Needs To Develop A More Consistent 3pt Shot To Open Up Driving Lanes But The Shot Mechanics Are Good And He Has Time On His Side To Improve In All Areas Skill Wise.   Right Now He's at His Best Making Plays Off The Bounce And Applying Ball Pressure Without Getting Beat Off The Dribble Which Makes It Tough On Offenses To Get In Any Flow- 

Projected Levels: JUCO / NAIA+ (Potentially NCAA D2 If His Overall Offensive Game Continues To Grow- The Toughness And Talent Is There)

​

2028 Hudson Hrubertz 214-972-5548

6'2 Combo Guard Lake Dallas HS

 Hudson Doesn't Look The Part Walking In The Gym, But Players are Players And This Kid Can Play. He Has a High Basketball IQ, Quick First Step And Uses His Body And Angles Well To Get To His Spots And Finish Plays Or Find the Open Man When He Gets In The Paint.  Does a Great Job Taking What The Defense Gives Him And Showed The Ability To Score It at all 3 Levels In The Game Portion of The Camp.  Strong Crafty Combo Guard That Put Up Big #'s His Sophomore Season And That Won't Change This Year- The Next Step For Hudson Is To Elevating His Game On The Defensive Side of the Ball And Showing More Leadership Traits This Year To Start Drawing Scholarship Level Interest.  Offensively He Is No Question A Scholarship Level Guard With 2 Years To Grow His Game And Increase His Level of Recruitment-  Keep Working Hudson And Don't Put All Your Marbles In One Basket as a Scorer, You Have a Lot More To Your Game Then Scoring It And Showcased The Speed And Physicality To Be Just as Good On Defense As Offense Moving Forward.   Regardless, Get This Kid On Your Recruits To Watch In The 2028 Class His Stock Will Continue To Rise This Season

Projected Levels: NAIA+ / NCAA D2​

2029 Christian Griffin 214-907-3073

6'4 Playmaker Lake Dallas HS

Christian Is  a  High IQ Inside-Out 3/4 Type With The Versatility And Length To Guard The 1-3 Spots And The Size and Skill Set To Post Up Small Guards or Take 4's Outside And Create His Own Shot off the Bounce.   Physically The Talent is There w/ Plenty of Time On His Side Being Only a  2029 To Play His Way Onto College Boards Heading Into The Summer.   The Key For Christian Is Consistency And Consistent Play, But Unlike a Senior That Doesn't Understand How Important That Truly Is To Get Recruited- He Has Nothing But Time On His Side To Develop Consistent College Level Habits Over The Coursze Of The Season.   Really Liked Christian's Upside And Physically He Has a High Ceiling And The Talent To Play Beyond HS.   Keep Putting In The Work It Takes To Grow Your Game And Stay Consistent On Defense and On The Glass While Elevating Your Offensive Game And That Will Stand Out In Your Favor.   Sophomore Standout To Track Progress As His Best Ball Is Clearly In Front of Him

Projected Levels: (N/A Too Much Time To Grow His Game- The Physical Talent Is There To Have a Breakthrough Season)

 

2030 Collin Powell 

6'1 Combo Guard LD Bell HS

 If You Factor Classification (2030) And Go By a One Day Assessment- Collin Was Possibly The Most Talented Player w/ The Potential To Play At The Higher Levels (D2+ / D1) Listed By Every College Coach On Staff As a Future D1 Level Prospect If He Continues To Progress Was Collin-  Elite Shooter Who Started The Day By Winning The Skills Challenge And Ended It By Taking And Making Big Shots In The Title Game To Finish On 'Top' In DFW.   Only a Freshmen, But a Freshmen That's Ready To Play This Year at LD Bell And Will Do More Than Hold His Own When His # is Called.   With Four Years To Grow Both Physically and Mentally And His Feel For The Game This Kid Has a Chance To Be Special.  Stay Humble, Stay Focused On The Daily Process it Takes To Play At The D1 Level, And Stay Patient With The Recruiting Process And Your Recruitment.  It's Only a Matter of Time Young Fella- Big Things are Ahead For You!
