Travel Team Ending Reviews – The Last 9

1. 13.  Illinois Rise:  Overall the first year program held its own in most events.  Lost track of them after Milwaukee.  Zac West (Oswego) did not have the summer we hoped for, but he’s still a good player.  Brodric Thomas (Bollingbrook) has a bright future, especially after he adds some muscle.  James Claar (Plainfield East) at 6’8” is a promising player.
    
2. 14.  Illinois Mercury Elite:  Sputtered some in July. A group led by Nate Navigato didn’t live-up to the pre-summer billing we all projected them for.  As a team they didn’t share the ball enough.  Josh Ruggles (Wheaton Academy) shot it well all summer.  He seems to have helped himself in terms of recruiting.  Patrick McNamara (St. Viator) had such a quiet performance most of the open period!
   　
3. 15.  Fundamental U.:  Michael Weinstein put together a nice nucleus of players.  I think their focus this summer was skill development.  I lost track of them after Minneapolis event.  Noah Karras (Lake Forest), Joe Borci (Libertyville) and Diago Quinn was the core of their team.  This program can build some steam for next season with a bus lead of young talent they have tucked away.
    
4. 16.  Chicago Demons:  “They went west-coast groovin”, won the Ultimate Showcase in Los Angeles (somewhere), then some momentum flowing on the Vegas tour where they lost a close game in the final fours.  The group comprised of Kenneth Perkins Jr. (North-Lawndale), Tobi Ewusoho (Lincoln Park), Korey Robinson (Dunbar) and Kyle Rushing (Willowbrook).
    
5. 17.  Illinois Icemen:  Over-all this squad had a productive spring/summer; late July they became saddled by the injury bug.  Jeremy Roscoe (Uplift) wasn’t a hundred percent, even though he attempted to play through bum ankle.  Daniel Soetan (Uplift) elevated his profile in Louisville with spirited play.  Jaquan Johnson (Urban-Prep West) shot-it-well.  Jamaya Wyatt (Uplift) was consistent.
    
6. 18.  Chicago Old Gold:  Saw them all summer. Hard to evaluate the group.  The play a style where it’s hard as a unit for anyone to stand-out.  At the Louisville trip AAU 17’s they won some games.  I lost track after Saturday night.  Keeshawn Palmer (CVS) is a player who we often mention, Jordan Bell (CVS) at 6’7” is intriguing and Joe Larry from Hales can play.
    
7. 19.  Quad City Elite:  A program with a bright future, especially if they continue to capture all the up-n-coming talent in the Quad Cities area.  17-U squad led by Mr. Tyler Hall (Rock-Island) and Grant Gibson (Galesburg).  The team held its own in Kansas City before running out of steam.  Now their focus needs to be retrieving the talented 2016 lefty Jerry Myles (United Twp.) from Iowa Attack to team with rising star Isaiah Roby and budding stand-out 6’3” shooter Tyler Houston (Knoxville).
    
8. 20.  Illinois Rising Stars:  The team was guided by a trio of shooters David Sachs (Highland Pk), Mike Travlos (Lake Zurich), Josh Newlander (Chicago Land Jewish), and Robby Nardini (Vernon Hills.  This group was missing another interior player to play along-side of Elijah Henry (Evanston).  “Newlander, under-rated.”
    
9. 21.  Illinois Bears:  Played in Louisville.  Lost track of final results, intriguing roster though.  Had a good showing in Milwaukee.  Eli Pepper and Allen Billinger (Carbondale) stood-out.  They have a nice core of young players in their program.

Northern Illinois Elite Camp 8/10/2014

Northern Illinois Elite Camp

Sunday, August 10th, 2014

65-70 players descended upon the NIU Campus located in Dekalb, a little less than an hour from the Chicago West-Side.  The camp featured talented players from as far as Detroit, Michigan, 10-15 good looking prospects came in from the surrounding area of Gary, Indiana; then you had kids from all over the state of Illinois which made for a quality day.

The Northern Illinois coaching staff has continued to display the tireless energy and passion it takes to build a program for long-term success.  This summer they probably were one of our hardest working more visible Illinois colleges along the summer circuit.  NIU’s head master and Michigan State Alum Mark Montgomery is determined to have his program in contention for a MAC Conference title every year.  “I believe it” and we continue to see the fruits of their labor.

Illinois kids were head-lined by Rockford Auburn rising hot-shot guard Antoine Pittman.  We will identify some other top notch performances.

On The Scene

On The Scene

After scuffling around in July tracking our Illinois kids, then lingering at the Global Challenge held a Whitney Young High-School (August 13-16th), I came away from those venues convinced that the 2016 class nationally has some terrific prospects.  NBA personnel already have 25 on radar to follow.

The folk’s down-in-the Carbondale area have every reason to be exuberant about the two 2018 diaper dandies:  6’3” guard Darius Beane and six foot five forward Khalil Acree both highly billed as freshman starters who will join under-rated senior play-maker Allen Billinger.  All 3 we should see Sept. 7th at the Spot-Lite Jam.

The Morgan Park tandem of Torry Johnson and Lamont Walker settled on their whereabouts for 2014-15 season.  Walker will attend John A. Logan and Johnson will head out west to Northern Arizona University.

Felipe Phillips, one of our states bright young coaches, decided to step down at Decatur-MacArthur H.S. to focus on pursuing his master’s degree.  Hopefully, he can join Blake Turner’s Lanphier program on a part-time basis.  Turner is another talented young coach, organized, manages, can X & O in addition, he provides mentorship to his players that don’t exist with most coaches these days.

Quality summer for our kids hailing from the state labeled as Land of the Lincoln.  I personally didn’t make the Peach Jam or the Las Vegas track, but I was able to put my work in stops such as the Adidas Invitational, the Chicago Summer Challenge at Riverside Brookfield, the NY 2 LA Summer Jam, the Chi-Town Invite and the newly rerouted AAU/Super Showcase in Louisville.  The NY 2 LA event in Milwaukee is where the most work was put in tracking my Illinois kids.  Tournament director Antonio Curl does an amazing job with his events.
 

1. Mac Irvin Fire:  Billed as Chicago’s Team and they are.  Had another tough go at the Nike Peach Jam (2-3).  Dazzled in Vegas winning the title game versus Houston Hoops becoming our only local club program to win a championship in July.
    
2. Illinois Wolves:  Lost a heartbreaker in Kansas City on Sunday; was consistent all summer finishing in the final 8 in most events.  Roosevelt Smart wrapped-up the summer on a high note.
    
3. Central Illinois Net Gain:  Had a strong summer, probably dropped a total of 3 games in July.  Fatigue kicked in Vegas for the Seibring/Reinhart/Block/Peacock crew.  They finished the trip 3-1.
    
4. Chicago Lock-down:  Every stop they made on the circuit, the group displayed quality play (Indy-Milw-Ky).  At the Super Showcase in Louisville they ran-up against a hot Oklahoma team.  Notre Dame’s Joe Mooney played well in July.
    
5. Illinois Irish:  A program that grew on me as I viewed them more.  Assembled by some nice system type players.  Dylan Miller (Hillsboro) really helped himself the last few weeks.  Rockridge’s Bryan Heath is a very underrated big-game performer.  They ran out of gas in Kansas City.  Dynamite summer.
    
6. Illinois Stars:  Had a respectable showing in Anaheim and Vegas.  The team comprised of Aaron Jordan, Brandon Hutton, K.J. Santos, Karl Harris, Cole Gentry and Christian Romine kept their show on the road in July.
    
7. Mean Streets:  This always competitive club had a tough summer.  A couple key players jumped ship namely D.J. Williams for whatever reasoning.  Now they can move towards the future by holding on to some key younger players in the program. 
    
8. Team Rose:  Lost in the quarters of an Adidas tourney in Vegas.  Marlon Stewart didn’t suit up because of an injury.  Devin Gage continued a sizzling summer and showed why he is considered as a top 5 prospect in the 2016 class.  Josh Stamps is a budding star.
    
9. Rockford Pryme Tyme:  Late July they were tucked-away in obscurity, playing in Minneapolis & Merrillville where they seemed to be the main attraction.  Antoine Pittman was devastating at times.  He really increased his value during the evaluation period.
    
10. Southwest Jets:  A rapidly emerging program, they’ve cashed in on the abundance of upcoming talent in that area.  They had a quality showing again in Kansas City led by Carlos Anderson (Alton), Emondre Rickman (Collinsville) a rapidly improving big man and Harrisburg shooter Bahari Amaya.
     
11. NLP:  A group that struggled all spring and most of July took a turn for better in Louisville licking their chops playing against the likes of Ma & Pa programs featuring small college types.  Evan Boudreaux had been disappointing until that leg of the trip, Admiral Schofield finally showed he can be a beast playing against school age boys.  The kid with the serious upside was Jachi Taylor a 6’6” athletic wing from Waukegan.  NLP looked like they were a contender in Louisville.
     
12. Full Package Elite:  This squad was pretty steady all summer, held their own against some stiff opponents.  I was impressed with the make-up of their squad Fred Sims (North-Lawndale), Adam Wolf (Lake Forest), Crishawn Orange (Jacobs), Nick Coleman (St. Pats), and Chris Lester (Barrington).  “Fatigue kicked in late July.”

10 For 10 Series (Part 2)

From End of July 2014 Issue

1. Bryan Heath    6’4”    G    LM+    SR    Rockridge H. S./Illinois Irish
   Combo who makes good decisions, knocks-down jumpers consistently, has 3 pt. range, can get into the lanes to create some for himself; vastly undervalued.  I think guys are sleeping on him, he’s a valuable plug to the Irish’s scheme of things.  “Watch him in Kansas City this week."
    
2. Tyler Seibring    6’7”    F    MM    SR    Normal Community/Net Gain
   Scrap all the crap about what he isn’t, this kid is a winner.  He makes shots in which he displayed against King James in a big-time contest where he registered 26 points and nailed seven 3’s.  He’s starting to rack-up a few offers.  Very clever around the rim knows how to

10 FOR 10 (Part 1)

From EarlyJuly 2014 Issue

During the month of July each week we will feature a short capsule on 10 prospects who might often seem overlooked.

1. Broderic Thomas    6’0”    2015    G    MM    Bolingbrook/IL Rise
   We recently viewed him again this week at the Morris Shoot-Out; he has a little west-coast flavor to his game; a clever ball handler who thinks the game through; excellent jump shooter; you can see his confidence growing; in addition he’s a quality defender and a good student; Western Michigan and Illinois State are the early leaders.  He might blow-up in July!
    
2. Donovan Franklin    6’4”    2015    G    MM    O’Fallon/St. Louis Eagles
   Performed well at the Morris Shoot-Out; He’s grown a tad in recent months; this smooth open-court player with some flair to his game has a variety of moves attacking the rim; he understands angles; also he’s a superb passer and very unselfish; needs some work on his J.  Don will become a full-time PG eventually; good student; SIU-C leads.
   

Top 100 Post-Summer 2015 Prospects

Top 100 Post-Summer 2015 Prospects
(Based on Summer Performance)
 
There were quite a few players who just didn’t have a good showing in July for whatever reason.  In fact we know they are better players then their respective performances reflected.  The July period has a way of applying some unwanted pressures for some young athletes.  For instance Charles Matthews came-up lame for the Super Showcase in Louisville which as we know is down-the-road from Bluegrass Country, “hum”.  Jordan Ash, Jeremy Roscoe, Donovan Franklin, Zach West and Tyler Hall had spotty showings in the last week.
