Good win for DePaul Prep against a scrappy Niles North team. I don't think this DePaul team could possibly be as good as last year's team. Jaylan McElroy allowed them to do things defensively that just aren't typical. He's irreplaceable. But they did pick up a great transfer from Whitney Young in Rykan "Extraordinary Shooting Guard" Woo.

The game against Lane will be interesting. DePaul's four lightning quick guards vs. Lane's huge front line. The Scantlebury kid is a horse. Lane threw down a few NBA type dunks vs. Phillips last night.

Always fun transitioning from football to basketball season.

- Kenwood added two big transfers and made their coach step down a week before practice started. Now their Assistant Principal is the coach for the year.

- Best teams I personally saw this summer were Rich Township and HF. Phillips looked good to but everyone bailed after their coach left after not getting paid for two years.

-The amount of bullshit heights listed of players is amazing. I am watching film of a team were playing tonight who has a kid listed as 6'5 on their teams website. He is eye to eye with a kid who is listed as 6 feet on another team's roster.

Yeah, all those DePaul guards that are listed as 6'2" are about my size and I'm nowhere near 6'2".

U of I asked us a few years ago take a picture of a football player we listed as 6'5 next standing next to a tape measure as this was during lock downs and he was a relative unknown at the time. He was a legit 6'5 in socks.

Looks like the Rams still have the Caravan's number.
