He plays Baseball as well could be a score for both Teams : )

Pretty sure he's giving up baseball.  I'm not even sure if he's playing this year at Findley.

where did you see he was giving up baseball.?


There was article on Rivals where he was quoted as saying he's focused on basketball right now.  Kind of surprised me he dismissed baseball so easily.

“They came by campus,” Findlay Prep assistant coach Todd Simon said of Lavin and assistant Rico Hines.

Johnny Jungle is also friends with Lance Stephenson and Austin Freeman. I wouldn't look too much into it but I do use that account when interviewing recruits for editorial purposes.

Amir won't be at midnight madness. He told me via text message that he is going back to his old school for homecoming.

Neal Nieves believes Garrett is a "lock" for the Johnnies.  He mentioned this a day or two ago.

Per Zagsblog....

Henderson (Nev.) Findlay Prep wing Amir Garrett will take his first official visit to Oregon this Friday, according to Findlay assistant Todd Simon.

“Amir visits Oregon Friday,” Simon said by text.

The 6-foot-7 Garrett lists Oregon and St. John’s as his top two, but Simon said no official to St. John’s has been planned as of yet.

“Not yet,” he said.

Altman. We've already beaten him out for Polee and maybe at least 1 other.

I'm sure he's going to try and use our loaded class against us with Amir

That approach didn't work for Beilein or Huggins with Pointer :)  I'd really like to lock Amir up, because he is super athletic, long, and will be a lockdown defender.  It'd be great to have two lockdown defenders.

I'd like to add Garrett, as well.  Two lockdown defenders and more versatility for our Johnnies.  Not to mention, his jumper has improved during the spring and summer months.

He and Pelle are the ones I'm really eyeing at this point.

I think you need 4 great guards to win a national championship.

Sheyer played great. Great college player. Nolan Smith was great.

Kid, not sure what you're getting at, but Duke gets McDonald's AAs whenever they want.

Looks like he will wait until spring to sign. I like his attitude that hes not letting the fact that other very good wings have committed to SJU affect his decision. Seems like he wants to win and will welcome the friendly competition. I hope he visits us and lets Lavin work his magic. Him and Pelle seem like they will be the focus in the spring along with Gods Gift.
