| Officially eating the Reese's Pieces. And I'm severely allergic to nuts. No joke. |

He may help ease the issues some people have with CCMs recruiting. Yemi showed again last night that he's a very good post defender, and I stick to my thought that his senior year he'll be a double double guy.
If Reese ends this year averaging 9-10ppg some people might not be as concerned about his evaluations and recruiting. | |

Dude had a sweet block last night then ran the floor and scored at the other end. You can't teach that type of heart. | |

| I know if and buts...but if Maymon was playing and we had a true PG this team would be day and night different. |

You can't teach that type of heart. | The block was nice, but overall he got schooled by Wiltjer. Wiltjer scored most of his points with Reese on him. Kenny Hall kept him in check much better. | |

| I saw Huntington prep play tonight. Landry had a good game. He may not score much (I think he had 6) but he plays hard and plays good defense. Huntington prep lost tonight to a good la lumiere team. Rumor is Andrew wiggins was sick. Wiggins didn't do much | |

I hope. | Dude Wiltjer posted up on Reese at least twice and swung him around like a rag doll. Wiltjer hit at least two of those 3s with Stokes or Hall guarding him. | |

| If you can't guard Wiltjer one on one, you aren't going to be able to guard many other SEC players. | |
