      So Seventh Woods isn't a target?
      78-65

        I know he's a Shockernet favorite, but the coaching staff might be concentrating on others.

          Although this is just based on hearsay at this point, coaches can't talk about who their primary targets are.

          .....but, statistically speaking, you miss 99% of the shots you do take.

            Odd that ******* would lose track of a former top 50 recruit who ranks as the Wichita City League's all time scorer, and who repented of his commitment to the Chickenhawks, of all people. Or maybe not so odd -- it is *******, after all.

            Still, even though Frankamp isn't on scholarship this year, he's likely to be a significant enough player that he merits mention anyway. Do you suppose that when he did the same type of preview about Creighton before 2013-14 ******* forgot Dougie? I doubt it, and one really shouldn't have to be a national player of the year candidate to avoid being overlooked in such a story. We certainly haven't seen a lot of other writers looking ahead to next year's Shocks skip over Frankamp, and understandably not considering that he's their most experienced guard behind both FVV and Baker, and that he'll be out for a month during which WSU will have to work around his absence.

            Oops.

              Good to see some fresh faces along with some old faces working the kids bb camp this week.

                Conner didn't seem to be having much fun -- sourpuss face. Maybe that's his normal face. Haven't seen him smile that much. Maybe the camera just caught him at the wrong time. Hope so. Most of the guys seemed to be having some fun.

                  That's Conner's demeanor. He always looks serious.

                    I remember watching some videos of him from high school, while he was killing kids on the court and never cracking a smile.

                          I'm afraid that desert heat has finally gotten to you.

                            Of the new guys, who do you see being a "player"?

                                I'm pretty sure Marshall and Co. see Frankamp as a "player," or else they wouldn't have brought him in, even without a scholarship this season. An original top 50 recruit and the City League's all time leasing scorer isn't exactly JR Simon (no disrespect intended to JR).

                                Plus, once he becomes eligible, which can't happen soon enough. Conner is their most experienced combo guard behind Baker. They don't just expect him to be a player; they may NEED for him to be a player.

                                Send EMS to Gilbert, AZ.
