    No doubt. As long as you don't do anything stupid like stop going to class or start toking up, there's no downside to letting the NBA guys give you a once-over and tell you where you stand.

    Sampson said he wished Jarrau would have done it too to show what he needs to work on to get to the next level.

    Coogs got a commit today from 3 star combo guard Traman Mark from Dickinson. He's currently the 12th ranked player in Texas for the class of 2020.

    I like Tramon Mark a lot. Lefty combo guard with good size. Can get to the basket and also kick out to open players.

    One of the asst coaches tweeted some big news coming soon. I am not sure if that is a recruit committing or maybe some future scheduling news, but I did read we have 2 transfers visiting this weekend.

    UH is very close to bringing home another top 100 kid from Ohio State.

    They are going to need to lean a lot on their guards and forwards.

    There are bright spots, the signings are solid and Sampson is doing very well on the transfers.

    The biggest bright spot that the coaching staff is purposely not saying much about is the supposed development of Caleb Mills. Although he will be new to college basketball, they think he could be their best player.

    If Jaedon Ledee ends up at UH (He is for sure leaving OhSt), he will be a big piece long term. Ledee has been visited by UH people recently.

    Well Ledee went to TCU. So does Sampson have another spot he is looking to fill?

    There is someone coming in for a visit today. UH was close on Ledee.

    Tyreek Smith.

    Well if Sampson and family love Smith then it would be nice to see that size added to the roster.

    Thanks as always Nook.

    Just moved to Houston and am excited to hit up some Houston basketball games next season. I know it's early but has there been any schedule leaks or anything yet? I know there is the new alliance with the SEC. Hopefully Coogs draw a fun match up to bring to the city.

    We know we're going to be playing in one of the SEC games, but we don't know against who. Sampson has also said that we'll be playing a good ACC team this year, but hasn't announced which one. We'll also be traveling to Oregon, and be hosting BYU and OkSt in our house. The team will also be playing in a tournament in Hawaii that Washington (expected to be pretty good this year) will be in.
