Ok, sorry this has taken awhile to put on here. Time is limited for me lately.

To start, I saw most of the afternoon games at The Pit on Saturday because of the adequate seating. The 4 games at the PEB have just the 2 or 3 rows of seating up above. With parents and other p_layer_s already watching on, it is madness up there.

First game I saw was the South Texas Stallions 17 vs the G2S Magic Elite. I think of Coach as I am watching because Magic Elite seems to like the bank shot (after seeing Caoches' post about bank shots the other day). The ST Stallions had one p_layer_ that was 6'9" (Ty Gough) that first caught my eye. As the game went on, however, I saw a lack of hustle at times coming down the floor from him. Not D1 ready. Elite won

After that game I bounced around from The Pit to the PEB looking for a high talent game. In the early evening I stopped to see a game in the PEB featuring the Houston Heat 17 vs Urban DFW Elite. While the Heat tryed hard, the were no match for the DFW Elite. As I watched the game more I noticed the HUGE line of coaches along the back wall. Ok, perhaps I wasn't the only one thinking some talent was on this team. The team was VERY tall and athletic compared to the rest of the field. Sometimes they get a bit too cute, but you can see the athleticism.

Urban DFW Elite
00 Byron Brown 6'3" - I liked him. Made many penetrations.
22 J'Mison Morgan 6'10" - Would like to see him move without the ball more. Very slender and quick for his size.

Other p_layer_s on the team played well too, these were just the 2 I made quick notes on while I was watching. I may have missed some really good p_layer_s.

Also, I don't know if anybody I saw was a highly touted prospect. I am not that close the scene to know that.

That's good, we will probably see those names pop up somewhere before long.

Was the 6'3 Brown a point guard?

My team played a couple of games last night and we had a post make 6 bank shots (all from the high post area near the free throw line).

One note about that game (because I know everyone cares). Both teams only have 5 p_layer_s, and our post (that I mentioned before) had just done a squat/power clean/plyo box workout at our field house. Anyway, he was doing great, but starting to cramp up. With 1:10 left in the game tied at 57, he finally couldn't move anymore, and we had to play the last 1:10 5 on 4. We started off on defense in the ol' 2-2 zone, got a steal and a layup. Then our patented 2-2 zone held the rest of the way and we won 59-57. We are thinking about making this our _base_ defense now.

Just figured I would look up the two names I mentioned to see if I had any clue what I was talking about last Summer:

Byron Brown I cannot find any information for

I thought it was this guy:

but the timeline doesn't add up.



J'Mison Morgan is a 4 star stud:
