Really?  The July Evaluation Period does not start until July 6, coaches can't be on the road recruiting/scouting/evaluating players until then.  Not sure how this is possible.

Of course not.

Per Evan Daniels:

En route from Barcelona to Zaragoza for the @FIBA U17 World Championships. Loaded field. Know of at least 25+ high major coaches attending.

Good thing we have somebody on this board that knows the rules and regulations better than the NCAA coaches.

Hope he shares with the SJU staff so they wont be hit with any NCAA sanctions

Of course not.

Could it be because of the time difference? I think Spain is like four days ahead of the US.

Daniels seems to think that this specific Tourney might be an exception to the normal quiet period rules.

Why can you say you were wrong people would respect that

Great game between Canada and Australia. RJ Barrett with some huge plays at the end. He might be the best player in the 2019 class right now

St John's among many schools watching RJ Barrett in Spain. Per Zags

That's a great sign that they are getting St. Jean out in the recruiting world.

Paultzman any word if they are moving Richmond to replace Slice.

Thanks for the great info.

Matt A. is a recruiting savant.  I wish he was there too.

Rowan Barrett always had a great attitude. If he had a point guard in college, he would have had a better career. He was a great athlete. I remember him like a poor man's Lavor Postell.
