Get ready for some good news...we will hear some from Brazil if not before....
I believe one of the players NOT expected to play could log some time on court!
Practices that are allowed are getting the guys in shape.



There was another Euro Summer League just completed in Las Vegas....
players competing for the chance to fill some Euro roster spot....mostly players not familiar to the average fan.

But here ARE some of the guys participating...

Pekin's Todd Peterson - had 8 pts/3 rebs in the Championship game

ex-BU recruit Walter Battle

ex-Molinari recruit from Minnesota Brandon Smith

Here's a thought and it explains why Northwestern is strongly recruiting this guy...
Nnana Egwu of St. Ignatius and the Illinois Wolves...and also Nnana's twin sister, are BOTH
straight A students!!!



Renardo Sydney is under orders from NCAA to turn over his parents and grandparents' tax returns or he will be deemed ineligible....the NCAA wants to know how they paid for all those expensive houses they were living in while USC was recruiting the kid!

Per Charlie Walters..
"Jack Finks, a sophomore at Indiana University and a grandson of late former
Vikings, Chicago Bears and New Orleans Saints general manager Jim Finks, this
week scored a hole in one on the 310-yard, par-4 No. 7 hole at Indian Hill Golf
Club in Winnetka, Ill., en route to an 80. An ace on a par 4 is more rare than a
double-eagle 2 on a par 5, which is more rare than a par-3 hole in one. "
